Quick verdict
The Mega V 2 is MillRight's replacement for the original Mega V. The standard size cuts 483 x 483 mm (19 x 19 inches) with a 159 mm (6.25 inch) Z stroke and needs a 711 x 838 mm (28 x 33 inch) footprint. It uses a heavy aluminum extrusion frame, linear profile rails on every axis, steel rack-and-pinion drive on X and Y and a screw-driven Z, with dual Y motors and homing switches that square the gantry. The $2,299 base kit includes the pre-wired GRBL control box but no router, router mount or bed. Options include Makita RT0701C or DeWalt DW618 mounts, 1.5 kW and 2.2 kW spindles, Masso G3 Touch control and a 4th axis.
Who this fits best

Buy this if
Hobbyists and small shops with limited space who want a rail-guided, rack-driven machine they can add a spindle, Masso control or a 4th axis to later. Linear profile rails on every axis replace the original Mega V's X/Y V-wheels.
Skip this if
The $2,299 base kit has no router, router mount or bed, and 483 x 483 mm work area is small for the price; the XL size adds 16 inches each way for $400.
What else you still need
A router (Makita RT0701C or DeWalt DW618) with its matching mount, or one of MillRight's spindles; a spoilboard or bed; a computer running UGS or another G-code sender; CAM software; end mills; dust collection; and a solid bench.
Material reality check
MillRight says the Mega V 2 is best for wood and plastics and a reasonable choice for some aluminum and brass work.
Better alternative if...
If you have the space, the Mega V 2 XL uses the same rails, drive and options but cuts 35 x 35 inches for $400 more. See MillRight Mega V 2 XL
Where it wins
- Linear profile rails on every axis replace the original Mega V's X/Y V-wheels
- Steel rack-and-pinion X/Y drive with self-squaring dual Y motors and standard homing switches
- 159 mm (6.25 inch) Z stroke with over 5 inches of gantry clearance
- Same frame takes Masso G3 control, 1.5 or 2.2 kW spindles, a 4th axis or a laser later
- Made in the USA with a pre-wired electronics box and a one-year parts warranty
Where it falls short
- The $2,299 base kit has no router, router mount or bed
- 483 x 483 mm work area is small for the price; the XL size adds 16 inches each way for $400
- Kit assembly is required
- The 2.2 kW spindle options need a 220 V supply
- Few independent owner reviews of the Mega V 2 are available yet
