The optical Z truck motor sensor also needs repeatedly cleaned out. Fine sawdust builds up inside of it and causes misreading of the carve depth.

Excellent job. Did you notice if the spindle bearings got any hotter than usual during the carve? I think lots of us will want to see a link to where this material is found and exactly what it is.

I have had this problem several times and solved it. This message is sometimes misleading as it may have nothing to do with the tracking roller.
I would check for a stuck compression roller...

The cuts are too close to the board edges and will cause problems both with feed and the compression rollers. I would use a smaller layout , or a bigger board, or make a jig to hold it in place while...

it looks like there may be several problems. the head pressure may be too loose causing wood slippage and making the angled cut on the side of the rectangle. the z axis encoder may be dusty causing...

i just got an email tonight that said my pattern was listed but it is not showing up in the pattern depot even with several search words .
the pattern is named "200 A Nostalgic American Country...

I have a few suggestions. is the wood being carved with the grain cup facing downward? i had this problem when carving pine with the cup facing upward. I placed the cup down and it carved much...

i would reinsert the board and have the machine measure it again.its probably just slightly narrower in 1 spot causing the actual board to be measured smaller than the virtual board.

I mostly use autocad to create precise linework into dxf files. I use paint shop pro 9 to create png files since some jpeg looses detail when saved.Paint shop pro 9 can be bought on ebay for about...

I bought the dxf importer about 2 weeks ago. I would give it a 3 out of 5 stars.
Pluses - You can import highly precise vectors from autocad dxf files. There is very precise control of depth of...

We just had 6 new patterns listed Thurs May 6 .
Names from left to right are:

277 A Classic Country Shutter or Door Face

I registered the program and the licenses and new computers with the carvewright website when i installed the designer software with the numbers. Both my own patterns and the ones i have licensed...

unfortunately for most of them, no. i did a search of my computer for mpw files and found about 20 so your advice helped some. thanks!

Maybe some snowflakes or enlarge the snow shoes, I thought they were tennis rackets at first. I just completed a welcome sign with hummingbirds that is my avatar photo

Does anyone know how to be able to open your own patterns that you created in pattern editor without getting the message "you may only edit unlicensed patterns which you have authored?"

in addition to the good temperature and lubing up the posts advice, check the head for proper pressure (75 to 85 pounds) when clamped down on a bathroom scale. If it is too low the board may loose...

The problem does not seem to be with optimal quality since other parts of the clover are still very smooth.I would bet some sawdust or small chips of wood got caught in the z axis belt and gears. ...

have you tried removing the black cap from the z axis motor and air cleaning the z axis encoder disc? i didnt have the same number error as you but i did have z axis issues with gouging and not...

After a year of putting up with annoying small ripples in my carvings and after checking for loose bit, chuck,x, and y and z looseness and finding no problems i made a big discovery. The z axis motor...

Hi, just resolved a z axis error 303 problem .I misread the post and see yours is a y 303 error not z 303.Your problem might be caused by too much head pressure. If you hear the gears making a...

It sounds like your z truck is still slightly loose or misaligned. it is possible to tighten it out of range by wrenching the bearings too far and this causes them to loosen again. Also it is...
