Does CW plan to build and market a Rotary Jig for 3D carving?
jackh,
Welcome to the CarveWright forum family.
Happy carving to you Sir.
There is a guy who used to make and sell them both on his own and on LHR's website. He seems to have stopped but you will sometimes see used ones for sale on here. There is a thread on making your own but it all seems experimental and I have not seen some one successfully post about making one. I could be wrong. see this thread: http://forum.carvewright.com/showthr...ghlight=rotaryQuote:

A Program that would rotate that blank in the X, Y, Z and Rotary that made something Fantastic... It was only a Wish... Having never toured LHR Secret Back Rooms of the Research and Development guys.... I have no knowledge of that idea....
Being a Electronic Guy... I had wondered what the Calibration Jig was like for the machine.... We got a peek of that in a LHR Post the other day on Y Calibration mentioning a Metal Plate and Electrical Contacts that when touched by the Bit told the machine about a physical point in the machine. It could have been a Self Contained Plate with Batteries or something that has all along been plugged into the little Jack for Calibration.... Or even the DB 25 Connector that is part of the Computer and accessed from the outside of the machine... I believe the Prototype Talking Module plugged into that DB 25 Jack.
So like the new CX machine that caught me by total suprise... A Change that was in the works and has now hit the street and made public...
Lets hope that someday we see a Rotary SLED....
Until then..... We wait...
AL who....
Is that a hind Connie?
Jack, I responded to your PM. I only sell the plans (and a small hardware kit) for My Rotary Jig at this time. Contact me through my website for information.
