Hi,

I've decided to buy a bigger machine and I don't need the CW anymore. Unfortunately, I forgot to write down the number of hours but I should be less then 10 hours, I barely used it. It's the...

Thanks Bud.

I thought it could have something to do with vibration as well.

Hi,

what function do they serve?

Thanks,
Felix

Hi,

I understand that designer and any of it's add-ons are neither CAD or CAM programs and that's perfectly alwright. I assume they will never be either. I've read quite a few interesting posts...

That's what I thought but wanted to make sure. It's really unfortunate that we can't use any form of 3d vectors, it would such a time saver...

Thanks,
Felix

mtylerfl,

I can understand that if an STL file is converted to pixels it will most likely be off by a little amount. I wasn't sure about that. Is it the same with vector files like DXF, AI and or...

Personnaly, I don't see any logical and financial reasons to put this plug there if it's not to get FULL access to the machines heart sort of speak. But it's very likely it take the form of a com...

Hi,

I made a few STL patterns, simple parts actually and each time I put one on a board with "scale to fit board" on or off, the dimensions are incorrect, not by much but still off. Most of the...

Kenm810,

thanks to you and your idea, instead of making the roof in parts I'll try to make it in as a single piece. Though it's not what I wanted at first, it wil work just fine and simplify my...

dbfletcher,

I understand all of that, the turnkey woodcarving machine, the novice intended audience and all that. Yes I would probably have been better off making my own but the incredible price...

hi all,

sorry all of you, saturday was paint day here, no time to reply. Before I forget, mtylerfl your book rest is beautiful, I like it very much. There is no doubt in my mind one can do pretty...

mtylerfl,

thanks for the suggestions. Unfortunatly for me, many of the chamfer like feature can't be done with a V-bit at least not the 90 or 60 degree ones but I wouldn't mind doing these parts...

mtylerfl,

I can understand the CW system is pretty strong at what it does and it does it elegantly as someone suggested. But knowing the machine as all is needed to fully control it's movement in...

Clint,

I suppose it's probably "one" pretty good way of using the machine but what a waste when you know a machine like that could machine any of those part just as easily as any patterns one can...

This last phrase, that I can understand and it fine by me.

If I was the designer of the machine and had to convinced the company to spent the extra money to build that port, all the extra...

jpaluck,

your right, I did that as well because I didn't want any scaling of any sort. I even outline the pattern just to check things out and the dimension are still off, not much you'll say but...

atauer,

I'm not saying your wrong about this but it seems a rather expensive solution for doing just that, I assume it as to be wired somehow to the controller board, so there are some wires in...

Hi,

anyone nows the real purpose of this port? Is there a pinout diagram or electrical diagram of some sort somewhere?

Thanks,
Felix

Hi all,

maybe there is nothing wrong with it but I noticed when I import an stl file, the first screen give me dimension that are inline with the actual pattern I designed but when I insert it on...

Hi,

I'd like to see how other would approach doing something like this bird feeder I've created? In case it helps, I have both the STL and DXF importer, I also have AI2MPC. I'll gladly share the...

Hi all,

I can't seem to find much info on this software add-on if anything useful to understand what it does and how it does it? Any help on just vector stuff would be appreciated.

Thanks,...

mtylerfl,

as I said in my last post, I've found a pretty easy solution using my original 3dm files created in my favorite 3D Nurbs program, I just import the 2D geometry I've extracted from my...

dbfletcher,

I can understand the dxf file format as so many dialect that it's complicate to find a library that works correctly with each of them. I also now the program I use to generate the dxf...

Hi,

I have no idea of the version per say it is but I know it open incorrectly in DXF importer and perfectly in Rhino, BobCad, and a few other programs I have as well. I know my DXF files are 3D...

Hi,

I just realise the importer is capable of reading dxf spline elements but incorrectly. It would seem it doesn't use the weight info and or the degree of the element it read in. This makes it...
