    Default I Love Mine

    so much i bought a second one but it had all the problems you see posted here so i took it back and now have only the one good one. i think the unbalnced chucks that made there way past any qaulity checks were the root of most problems. also the 3 in 1 oil in the chuck is asking for gumming up problems. i think the new chuck should fix any problems they had but realize that maYBE 1000 MACHINES HAD PROBLEMS OUT OF 30 TO 40 THOUSAND MACHINMES. IF YOUR MACHINE IS WORKING YOU DONT GET ON HERE AND COMPLAIN ABOUT IT.

    Yes, I love my machine but it took some time to get that "lovin feeling".... be patient... learn to clean and lube it correctly and invest some time in learning the patterns by looking at the ones others have created that carve well... mimic their results on yours and it will get to be addictive.....

    I have two machines now... one I bought brand new from Amazon..... (that was the first one)

    One I bought Referb. by Sears... both work excellent... though I went through 3 machines from Amazon.... I was dead set to believe it was always the machine... and in a couple of cases I knw it was... but I do now know some was operator error. I think a good comprehensive video tutorial about the cleaning, lubing, maintenance process would be a good idea I would even have been willing to buy one before I knew what I was doing......

    With that said.. I would have to say in my experience the machine from Sears was a better investment even though I didn't have warranty because of the price difference... but remember I live down the road from LHR AND I had already learned from the first machine....

    Thumbs up

    With me it was Love at first sight, -- the day in 2006 I saw the Sears Info Commercial for the the CompuCarve, I knew, I had to make Her mine.
    Over the years we've had our ups and downs, but nearly every time I needed her, She was there, -- and came through for me.

    When I read the forum there is good and bad things said about the machine. I just wont a machine that works. Is it worth the money? Thanks
    My answer is YES. I own a regular hobby type CNC as well as 2 Carvewrights and I use both systems but I find that programing the software much quicker using the Carvewright. For those of you that have done any CNC programing will know what I'm talking about.

    LHR has made some great updates to the machine recently so if you are in the market might be best to buy direct from LHR with all the current updates.

    I give the CarveWright team alot of credit for making a system that is so easy to use and topping it off with the best software package in the hobby market.

    Comes with belt driven Y/Z servo motors. X motor is a servo however I'm not fond of the X plastic gear setup but the gears are relatively inexpensive to replace.

    Does require regular maintenance and I would also recommend using a top mount dust collector. This will reduce alot of the dust in sensors/motors/tracks and belts.

    Good luck, and hoping to see you more often here.

    BP to fix the BOP + British Petroleum to fix Big Oil Problem

    Oil spill here in the states that has been going on for a month now caused by a oil platform explosion in the Gulf of Mexico killing 11 workers and triggered a massive spill. Worst in history and is unprecedented.
