Take Inventory
Now, take a full inventory of all components using
the checklists on the following pages. Inspect items
for damage and quantity, then carefully set each
aside until they are needed for assembly.
Y‑Axis Left Assembly &
Y‑Axis Right Assembly Boxes
Open the boxes labeled Y-Axis Right Assembly
and Y-Axis Left Assembly and visually verify they
match the carriages shown in
Figure 1‑3
. The
Right and Left Assembly are mirror images.
PRO TIP:
Your Shapeoko 3 kit was carefully
packaged by hand. If, after completing your
