I think the Raspberry Pi might be a bit of an overkill?
Arduino with a Lantronix XPort.
Yes, I was going to wire the Cover Switch through a relay.

I'm making an alarm as well.
I was just going to tape the temp probe to the flexshaft with black electrical tape.
The monitor I'm working on can be monitored from remote (it has a Web Server...
Yea, selected is off, not selected is On. Just for experiments I made sure not to have it selected (App Nap On) and it Beach Balls big time. So, I then selected it (App Nap Disabled), and it works...
2.007 works fine on my Mac. He must not have App Nap selected. If you don't turn App Nap on then it beach balls.

I noticed white residue on my rails as well. I thought it was from using Dry Lube so I quit using it and now use Way Lube (used on Mills and Lathes).

In Designer 2 it still zooms, but doesn't seem to be as bad and is actually tolerable.

Add me to the list as another one that is confused by this.

A "C" Machine with a Rock?
Connie,
If you don't have a Decibel Meter (Radio Shack has them), there are Apps for the iPhone that do a pretty good job. I have one called Decibel.
If I recall, before I built my Sound Proof...
I'm betting either Valentines Day Sale or Presidents Day Sale. Maybe both.

I have that DC from Harbor Freight and it works great with Floyd's Insert.
I'm using a 5 micron bag bag from Rockler and will be trying out a 3 micron bag on my next Carve.

I didn't get any lock ups.
I generally don't use the X button to close an APP since on most Mac Apps, it only closes the Window, it doesn't stop the program from running.
The Close, Minimize,...
If I still owned my Rock Chuck, I would go with Bergerud's solution to modifying the Long Bits. Heating them up and adjusting them, along with some Loctite 640 Sleeve Retainer, there should no...
I'll bet that wasn't intentional. Since they don't have a Rock Chuck modified machine, I'm guessing that it never occurred to them that they might cause problems with Rock machines.

Terry,
Any programmer that is truly serious about developing programs for multiple systems (Windows - Mac - Linux), will have those systems available for testing on. When I was writing...
Vectric updates their VCarve software every year, and they don't just give the newer versions away. I look forward to the updates and don't mind paying for them.
As for your Rock Chuck's not...
I think if you took a poll of ALL users, not just the ones that read these Forums, you would find that quite a few of us have had this happen.
I've had a brand new machine blow a Flex Shaft on its...
Whoops, sorry. Didn't realize it was closed.
I was concerned that they would close this one (they tend to do that a little too often) and I and other Mac users need this specific problem to be...
I think that what you are describing is what Metallus has previous said not to do?

Since Designer and these other programs you mentioned all use the Qt UI Framework, it would appear your issue is with this Framework and not Apple.
I'm able to use newer versions of QtCore and...
Connie,
That's better, but it still beach balls.
Still get 2 Carvewright Icons in the Dock.
I'm assuming you've filed a bug report with Apple.

Wow, that's a loaded statement!:confused:
Care to share what exactly is not working?
My Mac "runs" the software. What isn't working?
Lots of luck getting Apple to fix YOUR software!

I reckon we should all be changing our passwords to the longest and most difficult to type and remember, considering the breach that exists in vBulletin:

I use a 1/2inch pipe, just long enough to hold the flex core. It is filled with lube and I drop the core into the tube, cap it off, and let it sit for a day or two. Then hang to dry for a day or two....
Yes, I upgraded to 10.9. Everything is running fine. Most of the APPS I use had, have, will have, or don't need, an updated version to work with Mavericks. Those that did have a "Mavericks" version...
