This is a SIENCI (pronounced "CNC") Labs LongMill ( See https://sienci.com/product/longmill/ ) with the short rails.  The web page says it is 12"x12" but in fact it is more like 10"x13".

The controller is an Arduino running GRBL. <br />There is a ton of valuable reference material on their "Resources" website.  See -> https://resources.sienci.com/view/lm-welcome/

'''User Interface:''' The Raspberry PI that was originally installed has been replaced with a faster and more robust "nanoPC" (model nT-A3800) connected to the Controller via USB.  It has [https://resources.sienci.com/view/gs-installation/ GSender], [https://winder.github.io/ugs_website/ Universal G-Code Sender (UGCS)]as well as [https://github.com/vlachoudis/bCNC bCNC] installed.

'''PC Login''': The Debian logon on is automatic on startup, so you do not need to log on. But if you need it for any reason, it is protospace/protospace.
