Hi Rashy yes another problem that I found that Sainsmart should have foreseen but they haven't the quick fix is to file a flat on the back side like I did in the video it now works great. Hope this helps Tony
@@Tonys.Top.Tips.Workshop I had a response from Sainsmart today asking for a video of the issue, I hope you don't mind that I liked your video for them to see the problem. Hopefully this will be rectified.
Hi thanks for your comment, like a lot of these small desktop machines it is not without some flex I have found with the upgraded z axis gantry it is more stable. If you use it in the right manner it is a great machine and at the right price
Hi thanks for your question I hope it isnt but it is looking that way. I have been left with solving problems that should never have let out of their factory. I will be talking to sainsmart on the newest fault
Hi thanks for the info didn't know it was made for that. I purchased mine from Sainsmart and it was advertised for the 4040 pro and it did not fit correctly. Thanks
I have just found your video after I found the same problem with my 4040 Pro and dust shoe. I sent sainsmart a message today.

Nice find Tony.
Thanks Jim
I like the 4040 but for some reason it just does not seem very stiff.

I wonder whether this lack of quality control is normal for Sainsmart?
