How many Carving Hours do you have on your CW? Who has the most?
Got more than one machine? What is your total hours?

Not totally sure without actually checking but I think it is about 90.
Sometimes I'm just totally underwhelmed!

I hope the winner get a free carbide bit or two.. never used the 1/16 bit yet.
Here are my times , all working 100% with the exception of my carriage adjustment on unit one I lost the right side gear pinion and it just hangs however it still carves fine as i adjust the table each load.. all units have the 1/2" Rock installed but the CT would be same i am guessing.
unit 1- 904
unit 2 -591
unit 3- 419
total cut motor time 1914 hrs

My first machine had about 300 on it. Then my Rev B has a few more. I have replaced my controller twice but I think the first before the change was about 400, then about 270, and I just hit 65 with my new controller. I dont use it everyday but I log about 16 or so on the weekend when I can. I have got a grand in hours just all spread out. I finally learned how to ground my machine so hopefully I wont burn any more controllers.

Well I got my CW in Oct 09, it has:
cut motor 31 hours 38 minutes
Power 48 hours 56 minutes
servo 38 hours 33 minutes
Scan 4 hours 19 minutes
Now who can beat these numbers (low that is)
Using Designer 1.187, STL importer, Center line, conforming vectors, scanning probe/PE, and the ROCK chuck.

I have 400 on my one CW and the new one expected tomorrow should have 20 minutes! Geez if I kept all the machine I have bought this latest would be number 5! My part machine I removed the cut motor so I don't know?

OK, it's time to revive this thread, cause we heard today of someone with over 3500 hours on his A model machine. WOW!
