Hi All,
Is 1.163 safe to use now? I just loaded it up on a new computer and carved 3 projects on 2 machines.
Machine 1 - Round Box - No problems
Machine 1 - MT's Shamrock Plaque. 6 hours and change on optimal on a nice piece of cherry. When it got to the end to do the cut out it freaked out. The cutting bit acted like it was drilling instead of cutting. You can see in the pic, the bit went down, came back up a little went down again and just sat there until I stopped it. Forgive the choppy edges, I had to cut it out on the bandsaw, I want to see if I can save it with some aggressive sanding.
Machine 2 - Carve and centerline. Carve went fine. Centerline went fine, but for some reason it put an extra line across one of the M's. All other letters before and after were fine, including other M's.
Machine 1 has a QC and machine 2 has a rock chuck, but I don't think it matters since I don't detect any bit slippage.
See pics below, any ideas????
Thanks,
Craig
