after thinking about your comment a while, the router bit and pattern might just do what I'm wanting to do. I'm giving it a try tomorrow. Thanks again for easing the brain cramp.

Thanks for your response. I have done the "Spring Wreath" project several times and the "rounding" of the banner on that project is what I'm looking for. On that one the rounding doesn't go all the...

Will someone explain how to make rounded edges on a rectangular or square carve, such as a box top, using the carving bit rather than a router bit? I would like to be able to select my own amount of...

Thanks, Ken and all -- that did it! I think I must have tried everything else but failed to take that approach. Much, much thanks.

Sorry about the image dropping off. I've attached an mpc of project I'm trying to learn on (thanks to Ken for the bead). Note that I added a cut path and copied the basic heart ouline and pasted it...

My problem is defining a rabbit on a heart-shaped object. I've atttached an image of the heart that I'm trying to figure out how to make a rabbit. The problem is that the outline (cut path) is upside...

Thank you. I just got back home and heading downstairs to try it out.

My request for help pertains to making a rabbit on the opposite side of an irregular carve.

I am making a heart-shaped box. I have designed (with the help from the forum) the heart-shaped top...

Thank you all for responding to my request for help, especiall Ken and Jerry for your input which I'll put to use tonight. I really appreciate this forum and everyone's willingness to "lend a hand."...

I need help in completing a design of a box in the shape of a heart with a 1/8" raised bead around the edge of the top (lid) -- specifically, how do you make the bead in Designer? I have used...

Hi Jerry -- I think I heard it click when it hit the Chattahoochee river....not serious. I have bitten the bullet and packed it off to LHR for an overhaul. I've just been having so many error...

Thanks Michael for you response. I'm using a Rock Chuck and CW-Parts sleeves and bits. I have had approximately 300 cut hours of good carving with them. I installed 1.178 a week or so ago. For the...

One more shot at an answer or guidance before I send my machine off for overlhaul to dhr - my problem to start was cut path. Set at 0.3 a pass, the first pass would be about 0.7. After many tries on...

Thanks Al. Answers in order:
1. I have not removed the slide plate although I did get a "Ensure Slide Plate Set" error message when I first started carving the project. I changed boards and it...

Yes, I used the carving bit in my mpc by mistake. I also failed to invert the surface on the box top.

Here are the mpc's (I think) Somehow I've missed the Heart Box Side.

OOps -- my mpc's didn't attach. Got to figure out how to do that.

4206642065420644206742068Here are the MPC's of the Heart Box I'm trying to make. The cut on each mpc resulted in the same .7 depth on the first pass and pressing against the board at the start of the...

Thanks, AskBud -- I will attach the the mpc's for review as soon as I can get back to my downstairs computer. The wood is clear pine. After the same thing happened on two different carves I changed...

Over the last two days I have had a cut path problem. This occurred on the last two projects I was working on. The problem does not apply to the carve or rout as they work perfectly. I set the cut...

Does anyone have a 78 Corvette Dash pattern for sale or share?

Thank you both for your help and patterns. I know my brother-in-law will appreciate the final product when I get it to him (I'll probably make two or three). I plan to use brizilian cherry and...

I'm looking for a pattern for the Combat Infantry Badge. I can't find one in the Carvewright store or on the forum. If anyone has one to sell or share, please let me know. I would like to carve it...

Thanks, Al. I think I'm stuck because it only gave me an "X axis stall." Think I'll try and run it again and see what happens.

I just had a X axis stall caused by a chip of wood coming loose and jamming against the rollers. I was approximately 90% through a 3 1/2 hour carve. Is there any way to make the machine pick up at...
