I did make sure the actual board was full size including the 7 inch rule, but the machine asked to scale it anyway. Can I refuse to let it scale?

After installing an RB DC and acquiring some maple I just had to do a test carve to see how things would turn out.
I designed a pattern with several images I found in the program.
The pattern was...

I was wondering the same thing myself. If anyone has other thoughts I'd like to hear them.

This is the last of a series of problems that have occurred since trying to use my "B" machine after several months of idle time.

First it was "Clear Board Sensor" and after awhile messing with...

I appreciate the thought that a worn or loose cover can cause an error message and stoppage. However, my cover isn't worn. It is tight and seems to be fitting properly. Moreover, I have tightened the...

Good tip.
Mine's OK, though.
Funny, sometimes I get the error and sometimes I don't.
I'm considering putting a small dab of epoxy on the plastic tab that actuates the switch.

Yup! It was the wires for the cut motor. I didn't push them over to the side after assembling the head cover.
Now then, there's just one more little thing. I keep getting the "Please close cover"...

Well, here's another thing.
When I started the machine for a small test run it measured the board a;right, but when sensing for the bit the Y truck wouldn't go all the way over to the bit plate....

Thanks Chris!
That did the trick. Two washers I didn't see before.
Took 'em out and it's cranking 80 pounds consistently.

The new traction belts arrived today. The guide posts are cleaned and lubed. The head crank mechanism (clutch) is lubed. the new belts are in. After everything was assembled the head pressure was...

I suppose that might work, but I have never had to do it when buying things from other Internet sites.

d

Yes, I did all the things required.
I complained about this before, and they said they'd check into it, but I never got a reply.

This is my second experience with the LHR online sales site.
A month or so ago I tried to buy an item online and when I got to the page on which one enters one's credit card data the program erased...

Hmmmmmmmmmm.
I'll think upon it!

Thanks.
I think my mind has been persuaded by the economics!

Just got back from watching the Youtube video on changing the belts.
I see I will have to disassemble the machine to make sure I get everything I need to get the job done.
Does anybody know what...

The board sensor arrived in only two days (Yay) and installed with only the expected dificulty. The board sensor test returned a 150.
Then I had a "close cover" error, and finally got that fixed....

I just had another look at my sensor. C6 seems to be intact.
New sensor on the way from Texas.

Don

Well, I have a job waiting for this so I just ordered a new sensor.

Here's me, hoping that fixes it!

OK, I got the sensor out, and I can see both LEDs through the window (lens).
When you say CUT, what exactly am I cutting? The plastic part that covers the back? Or the glue line around it?
I think...

Here's the data om ,y machine:

I haven't used the machine since early last summer (2012). Cleaned...

Well, I'm beginning to think I didn't make myself clear.
The material I'm referring to is the plastic "wood" they use for decks and outdoor furniture.
My client is making a table and wants part of...

I had a client ask for a carving in HDPE.
Is this material OK in the CarveWright?

Don

?
I'm not trying to do anything. Just making sure of my documentation.

How do I ascertain my license number?
Is it the same as my registration number?
