When i had this same problem, it took me a while, but i finally found what was causing it. the wires from the cut motor...

there is loctite holding set screws in the bit holder. if you heat up the holder with a candle, then try and get the screw out, it should come out fairly easy. if your set screw head is too...

do you get any "wiggle" in your bit after it's cocked (while sitting idle)?

put your finger on the end of the bit. there should be absolutely no play. if there is play, try recocking it a few...

nice carving. i like the way it came out.

the sand paper belts can be purched by calling carvewrite. they are $9.99 each. they last a long time as long as you run the machine properly. every once in a while one of the belts may drift one...

thank you pine acres.

for me it's an excellent use for a lot of my scrap wood.

after much learning, here's some stuff i made with the CW.

i bought it as well. great tutorial. now to find the time to use my newfound knowledge :D .

wow, i really like the way that came out. it's a little dark, but it being on plastic makes that ok in my book.

i have a few scrap pieces of lexan lying around, after seeing how your came out,...

keep us posted :D

i don't think he wants to cut it out (i could be wrong though). i thought he wanted to create a recessed surface and add some stuff inside of his frame. that's why i wrote to adjust the depth of...
