Key Disclaimers

Quick Overview

These are the most important things to understand about using FabriTech Nexus. Full details for each point are provided in the sections below.

We Earn Affiliate Commissions

When you click product links and make purchases, we may earn commissions. This funds our free content but never influences our editorial conclusions.

Information Is for Reference Only

Specs, prices, and availability change constantly. Always verify critical information directly with manufacturers before making purchasing decisions.

Not Professional Advice

Our content is editorial commentary, not professional engineering, legal, or financial advice. Consult qualified professionals for complex decisions.

Equipment Safety Is Your Responsibility

CNC machines and lasers are dangerous. We don't provide safety training. Proper operation, training, and precautions are entirely your responsibility.

Third-Party Links Leave Our Site

Clicking affiliate or external links takes you to sites we don't control. Those sites have their own terms, policies, and practices.

Limited Liability

We disclaim liability for purchasing decisions, equipment outcomes, injuries, or damages. See our Terms of Service for complete liability limitations.
