I've been having a time with my ShopBot. The gantry movement isn't very fluid and is causing irregular cuts. It isn't real apparent in wood, but when I am cutting plastics it's very apparent. Cut speed makes some difference, but it's still there cutting at .5 IPS.
I haven't determined if it is a single axis or a combination of the X & Y. Everything seems to be adjusted right. The rails are clean and everything is lubed.
Is there anything I can check or adjust to get rid of the excessive movement?
