My intent of starting this thread was not to create a big hoopla, it was to question the difference in price between upgrading from the basic version of designer to the 3.0 version being $100 cheaper...
So I just bought designer 2.0 in May. Now I get a notice that designer 3.0 is out and it will cost me another $200 to upgrade to it. If I would have waited I could have jumped from basic designer to...
I now figured this out. I had added a dust collector to my machine. The instructions for it say to cut the clear cover straight across from the ends. This works but any deviation when the cover...
Same thing happened to me, running under windows. I was changing to centerline and it would crash.

Thanks for the replies,
The axis all moved though, is the cut motor the only thing interlocked via the cover? Is there a way to simulate the carve to verify that the motor on command is given in...
I just got my machine back from LHR where it got the entire carve tight upgrade. This was my first carve in 4-5 years. I did a heart box, something I've done in the past. Starting with the lid, the...
Putty up the holes and re-scan?

This is where I bought my glue, pot, and brush from. Great classes here as well.

Why don't you try using a vibrator sander on the bottom of the mold (without sandpaper) after you have the cement in it. That should shake out all the air, and make sure the cement is fully seated in...
What do you have in mind? I'm in Waverly, NY not real close to you. If you wanted to send material, and files I could cut them and ship back. You could also come out to my shop if you need to see it...
I'd like the software to be free. Since someone needs a machine to really make use of the software, why not remove the time restriction? I'd like to have my father run a copy and make some of the...

I thought the DPI needed to be scaled to 128 dpi to make exact measurements come out. I think it would be ok to use 128, 256, 512, etc. If you use 200 or 600, the machine will scale the drawing to...
Maybe if you place a 1/4" thick piece of something on the sled, to allow the machine to sample as the depth. This will allow you to scan the object without a background, it will also make the overall...
Is the probe fully seated? Is your Z truck slipping? You're getting a difference is scan height where the image is darker.
When you do a carve do you get unexpected height differences? If so, I'd...
Sounds like a this could be a new feature for Carvewright to add to the designer program, the ability to specify the depth measurement location when changing bits. This could be added to the project...
Just as an update, The carvewright software is non-transferrable. This means if you buy something for your carvewright, and sell it used, the license cannot be transferred to another person. This...
Is the Rockler machine info posted somewhere on-line? I couldn't find it on their site. I'd like some more info on this machine. Since I don't have any info on the Rockler, it's not really possible...
That carving is sweet! Any chance you'd sell the pattern?

I have 2 Dell Inspirons. One has been in service for 4 years, the other 1 year. No problems with either one. They are getting daily use. I see that Walmart now carries Dell. If you order from Dell...
How far are you from the router? Any walls or floors etc. between the computer and router? First suggestion would be to move closer to the router and see if the problem goes away. Next, verify that...
Looks real nice, you gonna paint any part of it? Is the EGA 3 dimensional or flat? Will there be a brass tag below the EGA or will you engrave details into the plaque?

How do we get this Carvewright Newsletter? I've never seen one. Is it something that you get if you buy directly from CarveWright and don't get if you buy the Craftsman version?

Where did you purchase the other probe? I already have my carvewright probe, but it would be interesting to see if another probe would work. Just incase the original gets broken.

Here's a nice wall plaque that I scanned. I haven't had time to carve it yet, but it looks pretty nice in .ptn form.
Can't get a ptn to post, it's not in the upload extension list?
