Does anyone know or maybe someone from carbide can chime in here but i would like to shrink my xxl to an xl. I recently moved and need some space back and while the larger machine is nice I find that 90% of my work would fit in the xl I would hate to have to buy a completely new machine for what seems like a simple rail swap out. Can the rails be purchased separately?
What model is your Shapeoko. If it is an SO3 your best bet would be to trade your XXL rails and frame to someone that has an XL but would like an XXL. C3D no longer sells the extrusions so the used market is your best bet. Sometimes people have unwanted rails collecting dust.
It will be a major surgery to change from one size to another. Maybe you should just sell your old machine and buy a used and/or new one.
It’s not just rails. It’s also a full set of Hybrid T-tracks and most of a wiring harness which is a not-insignificant portion of the machine.
