very nice, I like it-
Do you adjust it for long carves? (it appears though the back might interfere with anything over a few feet-
Very nice setup and sure beats my jury rigged one!

Where did you get that device Switcher67?
Nice clean/new looking setup. What is the name of your shop vacuum. I need a new one and that looks great.

I just bought a dust collector specifically for the CarveWright. My existing shop dust collector couldn't handle the CarveWright and planer at the same time. At the conference in Houston someone brought in one from Harbor Freight. I went and bought the same one for $125. I love it. Had it for a month now and it works great.
I am looking at your setup and its all good... but are you buying your wood at lowe's or home depot I see your wood setting off to the side with tags on it if your buying your wood there it won't take long to go broke I started that way and spent $700.00 to try to learn the carvewright I started to go to the sawmills to get my wood you can get 3 times the wood at the mills, just thought I would tell you good luck and happy carving!!!!
+1 for sawmills. You can even get them to plane and line rip them for you. And my favorite sawmill has woods that lowes could never buy. Things like Curly walnut, Color spalted maple, Dark and light Cherry. And the most expensive board I ever bought from him was a 7.5' long 16" wide piece of Spalted Hackberry... for $35! I told him I wanted $100 worth of Cherry, Maple, and Walnut. He had to use the fork truck to load my truck! And if you don't mind glue-ups he has a mountain of shorts, Take all you want! Save the money and invest in a 15" planer a nice jointer and tablesaw. Buy rough lumber and finish it yourself!

Happiness comes from within.
But joy comes from helping others.
Measure twice... and then sneak up on it!
