Background

The setup of the Tormach 24R CNC Router is relatively straightforward. Since it's built with welded steel and an iron frame, it comes completely assembled. This is convenient for ease of setup, but you do have to take some things into consideration. Tormach recommends using a forklift to remove the 24R off of the shipping pallet. This is the quickest way to get it into your workshop. Because we know that not everyone has a forklift we also include a link to a separate video for an alternative method.
