Does anyone know whether or not CarveWright has a maintenance service where you can ship your CW back to them and for a price they'll perform a full system checkup of the machine?
To all,
My daughter ask me to carve her an owl, but I need to ask; what is the smallest size pattern one can carve on the CW?
This forum is my life line. I remember walking through Sears and first seeing the advertisement for the CW and thought to myself, "I'd love to have one of those!" Many months and reading all the...
The set screws came out with no issue using the heat gun, but the remaining assembly has proven to be a PIA, lol. I guess the answer is heat and plent of it. Thanks...
LOL, I can imangine! I can tell by your posts that you're an "Ole Salt" as I so the terminology is a welcome laugh.. Thanks for the advice, I'll run down to my local Lowes and get one of those "crack...
DickB,
That makes good sense. I wish the folks at LHR would as stated earlier, come out with one that they've sanctioned to work with the unit that will not void any warranties or cause any undo...
I hope that the engineers at LHR will take up the tourch and make a DC and market it to the customers. DYI is great, but having that "get out of jail free card" is better that way you don't worry...
I got the "B" model with 23hrs on it, and cannot get a warranty or and extened maint. plan, so if I was you, I'd get the longest warranty your pocketbook can bare. It is better to have it and not...
To all,
I'm having a heck of a time removing the QC collars from the 1/4" bits for use with my new upgraded CT system. The 1/2" with a little heat from the heat gun, came off with little or no...
Well I just got back in town from overseas, and took my newly modified machine out for a test run and I must say that this baby is SWEET! The upgrade was worth every bit of the money. The overall...
Well I got a call on Monday informing me that my machine was ready for return! I was last told that they the repairs would cost me an additional $70, but to my surprise, they were free! I could not...
Well my CW is now at the factory and it seems like I also have a bad boar sensor and board tracker to the tune of $70 for starters. Having contacted CW regarding issues I was having with my CW not...
Dan,
I will be packing my CW up tonight and shipping it off tomorrow. I did not know of any issues with a vibration problem relating to the pwr supply board. I will let you all know what I encounter...
If you're planning on shipping it back for the upgrade, then I suggest you read my post from yesterday. Shipping is included in the factory upgrade, but be fore warned that someone will have to be...
First let me say that I love my CarveWright CNC. Having said that, I decided to upgrade my machine to the new spindle assembly. I chose to allow the factory perform the upgrade due to not having the...
Thanks for the advice, was not attempting to do anything ulawful, but merely letting everyone know what I was attempting to do. I have removed the skull portion of the project. So based on what you...
To all,
I have made the Lincoln penny and it was a great project. Having done so, I got creative and came with my own desing for a bank that being a skeleton. My only problem is "mirroring" the...
Hey all,
Do any of you "vetrans" know of a good software that I can purhase to design my own patterns? I know that I will have to still purshase STL importer, and I am fine with making that...
Thanks Gentlemen,
Both of your suggestions were a termendous help. I now have built my file up of material to read. Once again,
Thanks,
QSligh
There maybe a thread here somewhere, but I have not yet found it. Is there any manual of part thereof that I can print and read at my leasure regarding Pattern Editor? I was hoping the new software...
How much will you sell your bits for?
To all,
Thanks so much for all the help you gave me regarding my issue. I am happy to report that after trying all the tips you guys gave, I finally talked to the folks at the CarveWright plant...
Cnsranch,
I tried a downloaded project this time after all the tips I've tried so that I can rule out my project design being flawed. I chose the "Old-Fashioned Wheeled Toys" project from Carve...
Eromran,
