The Wood magazine article was very informative.

I do not believe that they gave one machine the edge although as stated Carvewright was mentioned several times. The one thing that stuck out to me was the statement about having to pay for the warranty.

In the article there was mention of a wine box. There is also a little pic of it. If anyone is interested I have that issue of the magazine with the plan in it. PM with your e-mail and I'll send it to you.

Wood Magazine usually has a couple of different top ratings such as "Top Tool" and "Top Value". I always pay a lot of attention to what they have concerns over on a tool as they may not be my concerns and I then mentally adjust the scores.... They are good food for thought reviews....

Chief,

Really a good looking sign, looking forward to see it finished.

What is the size?

That's not what they said or how they said it.

"Carvewright offers a la carte pricing on software and hardware upgrades, patterns, bits - even extended warranties beyond the included 30-day warranty."

I see the optional warranties as a BENEFIT to our customers. The alternative is to put a warranty back into the price and NOT give the customers a choice. This would of course result in raising the the price of the machine. Any seller that says "warranty or shipping included" means they raised the price already to cover the cost of it. I think there are several customers that will argue, they don't want to HAVE to pay for a warranty.

Here is the article. Sorry for the poor quality, but I think you can read it.

Miss Connie and all of the folks at CarveWright,

First, thank you for a great product - it is the only reason that most of us have been able to join the CNC family and run with the big dogs (the big money dogs 5, 10, 20 grand or more). Please leave the pricing alone ... when I'm out at shows people have no issue with the the pricing the way it is. Some of these people have forgotten that some of us paid $2700 for these machines and we were happy to have them. The current pricing is $1199 and you can ad a one year warranty for $200 - that is a great deal.

If you have an questions about the pricing please feel free to give me a call and I'll explain it to you.

Happy CarveWright Customer among other things ...
