I have to say Oscar, I love, love, love laminates. Did you re-carve the same piece or did you carve a new piece of wood on the Wrought iron bar cross? I have re-carved some pieces 4 times. The...
Very clean and tidy. Great job.
The Import Image feature is very powerful. But prior to importing, the free apps work as well. Inkscape has trace bitmap which can separate as many layers as you scan. Gimp allows you to freehand...
Here is an import image quick pattern. I Also imported the image into sculptor and did well. There are free apps as well. Inkscape has trace bitmap which can separate as many layers as you scan. Gimp...
You will be amazed at what you can get from taking a simple picture (on a backdrop, or live setting) , and using the Import Image feature. I also import many images and then trace them with vector...
I have now changed all components accept power board. I am concerned that jolting some current through the controller while frozen has turned it into a $300 paperweight. I remembered that my...
I need more than 2 cents of advice. Arctic freeze caused a head level issue for me. I run my dust collector religiously but the air compressor is not always around when I need it so I blow clean less...
Yes, one rivot on each side worked loose and it slid off the lip. As far as the parts machine, it was registered to a school and not reported stolen so I can keep the controller in my model A. I put...
well , I went ahead and swapped out the controller and all problems were solved. I opened the outer case and saw minimal dust and no obvious discoloration but I didn't remove the board from the...
No progress on my machine yet. I planned on cannibalizing the parts machine that was delivered Friday evening and swapping parts until I found the source of the errors. Instead I spent the evening...
So I've checked the connectivity of the FFC and all 14 pins are good. There appears to be a slight blemish between two outer leads but I checked the ohms between each lead and both neighbors twice...
I have a domino chain of problems with my model A carvewright that began with a loose bit in the carvetight spindle which broke the bit. I assume the flex cable partially unwound inside the shaft...
The new power board has been performing without error for at least 20hrs. Congratulations to CW for this long overdue improvement. I am saving up a little every week to purchase the 3D pattern...
Here are some pics of my paddle. I decided not to stain the carve so it is hard to see the canoes through the grain of the wood, but in the sunlight, the show up a little better. Also shown is a...
I was told it was ash but the limbs and leaves had been burned before I got my sawmill to it. It really does make for a great contrasting accent.

Here is the mpc for Shanem. I have been working 60 hr weeks and have neglected my canoe. I will post some pics of the paddle soon.

Finally got my new board installed but not without some serious problems after the initial power-up. As I was checking the connections I saw the white AC wire move and was surprised to find that it...
I resaved the original file with a new name and created a zero carve region over all but what was carved. Pretty simple fix. Thanks guys.
I ordered the power board on the 5th and it is still listed...
Thanks guys.
I purchased the board this morning and will try out that zero carve region as soon as it gets here. I will be playing with the designer until then and let y'all know how it turns out....
My latest project is a cedar strip canoe with carved decks and matching carved paddles. I laminated what I believe to be ash on top of some green, flat-sawn walnut and set it out in the sun to warp....
I have a model A with power fluctuation issues. Laying machine on it's side and unplugging, then re-plugging all connections to the board turns the machine on. A light tap on the housing above the L2...
Thanks guys.
I designed this carve for a deck on a cedar strip canoe. I laminated some 1/4" ash on top of some 3/4" walnut and spliced two pieces together to make a 14" wide board. After tweeking the design to...
Thanks guys, that's really grear news.
