Current status: It is not missing any screws or parts, all was in a plastic bag. I've put it together (again(?); it was completely taken apart) However, the dial/knob of the X axis is missing/broken. We are unsure why the axis knobs, notably the Z axis, only turn with great difficulty. We don't feel that is easily solved, certainly not with lubricant; we did apply that. With the X axis not holding the drill in position, I've changed status to broken, because it is not really functional right now.

To do: Print or lasercut a knob for X axis, or make a less eye-pleasing thing with the aid of some metal.

Future: Specify and acquire parts for cnc-i-fy-cation. http://code.google.com/p/rt-8p8c
