Load the Board

[Jossef]

I am awaiting a new carving bit so while I am waiting I decided to attempt to square the board. I put a piece in, then the machine tells me to load the board. Okay, the board is too small. I load a long one and again I get the message to load the board. What am I doing wrong???

[Jossef]

Never mind!!! I don't think that I am understanding the board length. What is the smallest board I can use or is it that no matter what, the board must be 7" longer than the project?

Small Work piece - The minimum acceptable size of a work piece that can
be inserted into the CarveWright is 1.5 inches wide x 0.5 inches thick x 7
inches long. It will be necessary to mount the work piece onto a jig if any
single dimension is smaller than the stated minimums.

SMALL WORKPIECES MUST USE JIG. Any work piece smaller than
1.5 inches wide x 0.5 inches thick x 7 inches long will require jigging

The board that I was working with is 8.5", so I don't understand why it does not read the board.

You may have a roller Switch problem. Check to see if your rollers compress and uncompress.
