I'm just passing through the forum today. Don't frequent it much any more, but noticed you post hadn't been answered yet. Any time you do a cut out with the carvewright, you should do a cut path. ...

I agree with pkunk that the copyright issue has been taken too far in most cases. Although its a valid concern, most have read too much into the whole issue. Good rule of thumb is... if you bought...

I got the notice that mine has been shipped also..... only problem is that when it gets here it will be totally useless. The last "fix" that CW had me to make to get rid of the "close cover error"...

Dirty Dan,
Did you use a router bit for the edge of the carved region?

And how about the lettering.... it almost looks like you used the cutting bit?

V3d is a great source and I would recommend it if they have what you need and you can afford the investment for the project that you are doing. Also a good source of pictures is at Google in the...

Its interesting that so many people have had the problem and so little talk about it. I guess its just like mine is for me.... its an irritant but not a show stopper. I could live with it if it...

Wow, this thread has got a lot of post since last night. Jeff, you were asking when mine happened. I never looked at the percentage of completion, but I don't think it ever gets to 3 or 5%. It...

Jeff, your situation may be as you explain it but mine would do it on every project, even if everything was still warm from the previous carve. Some have suggested a software glitch. My opinion is...

Beachman,

Just curious, are you carving with the "best" quality setting. If so, did you try the same design on the "normal" quality setting. I carved one on the best quality setting and have...

Jeff,
I didn't know what it was.... read wikipedia def. and still don't know what it means in this context LOL

rjp,

I'm wondering if maybe that might be a warning indication that the...

Al,
I found some really good howling wolf pictures on Google Images and searched wolf. They worked great for beadwork designs but would need a lot of work to be good carving patterns. I haven't...

Hi Celticharper1,

You can open up multiple MPC files at a time and minimize and maximize as you need to. When you are in one with an element that you want to use, you can select that element,...

Now Meat,
That is the most workable idea I have seen yet. I have never tried steam bending but I think I would check into it for this particular senerio. That would keep all of your patterns or...

I came back cause I had a brain storm only to find that Pkunk had just posted the same idea..... guess its true that great minds think alike :) LOL

You might want to scan it at a lower resolution to reduce the time to scan. I tend to think if it is really hard when you start, that you can scan it before it can get too soft. Another challenge...

That sounds right to me. I haven't done any jogging to position yet but it sounds like you are doing it correctly. I don't know what else might be effecting its decision.

What end did you jog to. Keeping in mind it is going to be upsidedown as you look at if from the keypad and you are jogging to the upper lefthand corner of the project (if you look at it in...

It may very well be possible, but I think there may be issues because the machine will be expecting the flat surface. Second the Designer will be putting the items on the "curved surface in somewhat...

Wow, Meat
Talk about been there... done that. I think that is exactly what he was asking about.... or did you do this for his request??? I might even give that a try.

Rick,
I don't know that you have to remove the cutout. I was kind of under the impression that using that might be just a matter of simplifying the way it looked in Designer. I didn't really thing...

JW,
What thickness of board were you using and how far down did it cut?

Yes, that is very nice. I would like to try it on some cherry that I found if it is not a copyrighted design.

I suspect the same reasons that are keeping Greybeard from getting a machine will apply to Finland also. My guess is it will be quite a while before they have a machine that is ready for import into...

Hi Lisa,
Its a little hard to tell exactly what kind of a frame design that you are talking about, but I tend to think that if may do what you are looking for. The machine and software are...

Typically, I have found through years of experience that WD40 is a lousy lubricant..... for ANYTHING. It does have its place for something like this where you need to soak in and free up something,...
