New machine owner

[fireguybl]

Just wanted to Hi. I just got my new Series C CarveWright last Friday. Might have gone overboard but for the price I ordered the Ultimate Package. Been playing with the project designer software and following suggested tutitorials. My experience so for with LHR has been great, hoping my two backordered bits come in soon. Any and all advice would be great, hope to be making wood chips soon.

Welcome!!! Great job on viewing the tutorials and while at it make sure you read over the tips and tricks. Both will be very helpful in getting you started in making some chips!

Welcome to the Forum and Congratulations on buying the CW System....

Please take the time to read Tips and Tricks on the LHR site. Many Pilot Errors are talked about with great suggestions, many written by US as a Community. We were all new once....

Are you a Fireman? I use my CW to make Accountability Tags.

Yes, I'm entering my 11th year as a Volunteer Fire Fighter. Sit every night and read from the forum, have read many of the tips and tricks even printed out a few for reference later.

Welcome!!!

I know this will sound strange, but even though you bought the whole shebang, start out basic-- make your first carve a simple raster carve in the center of a board that is plenty long enough to give you the 3.5 inches on both ends of the carve and has plenty of room on both sides of center without a carve.

As an example, here is my first carve



As your skills advance, you will start using some of the cool toys (centerline, dxf, stl etc) and because you already have a knowledge of the basics and will be able to use your already built knowledge to troubleshoot and create great stuff.

I hope you will allow us to join with you on this new adventure- we're here to help, advise, console, and celebrate with you and your uses of your carvewright.

Welcome again,
Lawrence

1. When I ordered my CW two bits where backordered I have emailed asking when I can expect to recieve them but as of yet have got no reply as of yet.

2. When I go to order patterns from the pattern depot, do I have to pay for each one by it's self or can I order several and pay for all at once?


Finally got to use my machine; did the Mantel clock project turned out great. Dad decided that since it took so long to do just one carving that I needed two more machines. Should be getting them in next week sometime.
Any help with my two questions would sure help, Thanks

Just give LHR a call Monday or Tuesday, not sure if they are open Monday since it is a Fed Holiday.
They can give you a status.

Patterns you can buy all at once, but you have to activate the license for each one separate.
