    Default CX

    Is cx with the traction belts and
    cut motor the only machine available now or will the basic model still be sold.

    Default New CarveWright CX

    Got an email a bit ago about the new CarveWright CX coming out and the ability to pre-order it. Seems as if they've upgraded some components (cut motor, power supply) to make them more rugged and promoting this:

    The ServoSmart™ controller is the most advanced CNC controller ever seen in an affordable CNC system. Five feedback sensors and automated setup give the CarveWright an undeniable edge.

    Any thoughts on the new version who have combed the specs more or seen it in action (if there was any stateside)?

    I've never had a problem with my power supply so I've never read posts about replacement or if the old ones were inadequate. So I'm left to conclude that
    the carving tasks that I'm doing now are not a strain on the PS. But I can't help wondering if the PS upgrade is preperation for an additional upgrade that would
    require more power. Are specs available for the new power supply? I notice in the description CW mentions that it is more rugged. Is there a differnce in electronics
    or is it simply built a little stronger to withstand the rigors or shipping?

    I need a new motor, so I'm anxious to hear when the new motors arrive. I got a parts machine that I borrowed a motor from unitl the new ones are available. If the decible level is diminished that's all the better.
    I wear ear protection now, and can hear the machine from 60 ft away inside.

    I'm in the same shape as you 55president except that it is my original B machine that is down and needs the motor replaced. I hope the new motors will be quieter in operation as this would be a marked improvement.

    That definitely would have been nice. I'd like to see a new one in operation, but doubt it would put me over the fence to invest in a second one at this time.

    Well that's cool and all, but no idea of when you would get it? I mean is it in a month? 6 months? Would be nice to know. And I wonder if you can put the new quieter cut motors in the old machines?
