Thank you!

Yes, you could delete the actual weave patterns and leave the drill holes and outlines (i.e., the Cut Paths), then add your own carve regions, patterns, text, or whatever you wish!

I broke my 1/8th cutting bit . Don't know how this happened, but will be checking everything out on the machine this morning. I was carving Cabbage Bark wood at the time and its very hard.

Question, was going to carve the wheelbarrow this morning, but wanted to know if I can use the 3/16th cutting bit in its placement. And how to I change it? When I bring up the pattern of the wheelbarrow sides, I do not see where it has the 1/8 carving bit selected, so I can change it to the 3/16th.

Help anyone. I am down in Belize for another 2 months and not sure how I can get a 1/8th bit till I get back home.

OK, I double click on the drill holes and change it from 1/8th to 3/16th. I got that, but how do I do the outside cut-outs, like around the wheels? Unless of course they are being done with the 1/16th carving bit, but I do not think so.

With the cut out selected click on the saw blade button.

OK, figured it out. select the cut out tool, deselect it and then reselect it and choose 3/16th.

saw blade button is to revise cut out
