Maslow – Space Saving CNC

Ingenious Kickstarter project where the CNC router hangs vertically on a canvas.  This is moved with 2 pulleys tugging against each other to position the router across the board.  The frame is much bigger than the material in order for the router to reach all parts of the canvas.  My concern is without any z axis, how does the router retract the drill and move to multiple object cuts without stopping.  Looking forward to test out the actual project, great for space saving ideas as CNC machines can become very large.
