    Default How many CW's do you own?

    Okay, so that I don't lead a different thread astray, I thought I would post this question in the appropriate location.

    How many CW/CC do you currently own? Who owns the most?

    I own two.. a CC bought in 2007 and a used CW purchased last year. The CC has always been... and will probably continue to be a problem child.... but with two machines downtime is much more tolerable. FWIW.. both have Rocks chucks and the relaiblility sky rocketed on both after that change.

    I have two CC units, converted to the CarveTight Assembly.
    I designed and use the CW-Vaccum Head, which is a Project listed in the Depot.

    We have one and have considered purchasing another when the cash is available. Our other thoughts are to purchase a CNC laser. We are also looking into something along the lines of a Shopbot. I think that the Shopbot and the CW would compliment each other.
    Sometimes I'm just totally underwhelmed!

    I have three. I really only needed two but an opportunity presented itself to get #3.

    I use one exclusively for scanning.

    Three units and Rock chucks, total cut motor time 1914 hrs

    All three work well and run I them at the same time when not programing/testing patterns.

    Anyone notice running three units at the same time has a cool Doppler effect?
