Up here in Northern Vermont the only option(which is only in the last few months) is the wild blue route. One drawback to living in a town of only about 1600. But then I have no crime or traffic...
I did one before really simply. Used elements from their standard patterns. left a rectangle frame around it and overlapped the scroll elements so as to leave good solid connection to the outer...
Looks more like the work of R. Crumb to me. Underground cartoon artist from the 60's/early 70's time frame for all you youngsters.
Returned mine about two weeks short of the 90 days and had no problem with sears at all. The people that you dealt with at sears and their treatment of you should be reported up their chain of...
Those look pretty good to me. What software are you using to do those? Looks like it might have a lot of potential :-) Thanks for the images
There is, I'm sure a minimum length that will stay under the rollers. I don't think its 20 though cause I have used some 18 and I believe 15. Does kinda depend on your pattern dimensions also. I...
Meats right. Your pic is too big for the board you are using. Should be an easy fix. Just drag the colored balls at the edge of your pattern(with the pattern selected) and you can change either...
If you attach your .mpc file I'm sure that someone here would be able to help. Would seem that it would have to do with you board size settings and pattern size. Patterns should be able to be...
I agree, deeper carves in general look better. Gives you a greater range to work in to give things more dimension. Shallow cuts 1/4 or so though also has let me carve both sides when experimenting...
.mpc file are loaded by the compuCarve designer software. From what I understand current owners will have to buy the new software for a fairly steep price.
I believe the manual states that 2.5 inches is minimum width. If using autojigging you need and extra inch. So 3.5 should work. Never tried anything that narrow myself. I would suggest that you lay...
Welcome aboard Steve. It is more of an art than a science to be sure. Not sure from your post exactly which dimension is giving you trouble. My first inclination is that your board is too short. You...
If you haven't made any changes in your computer that would explain the problem then you might want to try system recovery. Windows periodically set restore points or you can set them yourself...
Just finishing up on a dragon I found on the net. Was a scan done by a 3D laser scanner of a statue at some university I believe. Didn't come out too bad for a cheap piece of pine.
Great! Thanks. Off to try it out.
Ok guys. What am I doing wrong. I have an oval in an oval to leave an oval frame around a pic I'm doing. Selected the outer oval, clicked cutpath. Even went into carve list and made sure the outer...
Thanks Greybeard, I'll have to take a look at that.
Good point. Oh well, scratch that idea.
I saw a photo carved on another website that was probably the best looking I've seen yet. What the guy had done was carve shallow. A depth of only about .15 and cut height of around 200 if I remember...
Where I work we used to use a milling machine similar to the CC to cut circuit boards out of copper clad phenolic boards for custom stuff we needed in a hurry. Basically you lay out traces and pads,...
When you are importing am image file, on the screen where you can raise, lower or invert the image, the "Floor edge" box is in the lower left corner.
Had the same problem with mine after changing an rpm sensor(CC). Held it open a bit and the error went away. I got lucky though and opened and closed it a few times and the error went away for the...
Here is some stuff for you folks to play with. The starting pic, what was actually loaded into designer and the mpc file. I use three different software packages cause each does something a little...
I have no problem at all with putting the whole thing up here but I don't know what the status of copyright issues would be. The wife saw it as a plaque for sale on a website somewhere and I just did...
The one thing you might try. Close crop on the head and a little of the shoulders so it doesn't look like a floating head. Use some kind of edge finder to eliminate the background. same idea (edge...
