Hey all. I've had great success with my CW so far but life just came to a stand still. I did a simple carving earlier tonight and everything ran as it was supposed to. When I tried to do another simple carve, the cutting head keeps on trying to home. It will tell me to load a bit, I'll load the bit and then it moves all the way to the left like it usually does, moves all the way right like it usually does but tries to check depth there three of four times. Then the LED readout says it's homing again and will tell me to load the same bit I've already got loaded.
Anyone got any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Is the bit touching down on the the little plate that flips out in the back? Sometimes the plate will stick or something gets in the way or the Y-truck moving all the way to the back. Do a search for 'bit plate' for more information.
