As we all know wood is not cheap , I have been trying to carve the coin bank pattern and when it comes to the cutting out process it ends up cutting into the pattern. what am I doing wrong? Please help before I go broke on buying wood

I have often wondered why it is that
Conservatives are called the "right" and Liberals are called the "left".
"The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of
the fool to the left."
It sounds like you are having tracking issues. Check your head pressure, put masking tape on the bottom edge that runs on the brass roller, check your out feed trays for level.

Are you using an inset on the cutting bit?

It looks to me that you were not staying under the rollers. If you were not using a sled, that carving is too close to the board end.
When a roller drops off the end of the board, the brass roller stops tracking. This, among other things, frequently is the cause of bad tracking. Remember the 7 inch rule.
I would have to agree with Dan here, if not using a sled, this will not carve right.
I have had no issues before , I have already made 4 other using the same pattern. My board is actually longer that what the pattern calls for. I did use masking tape under the board with same results
Hi
I think you got lucky with your previous successful carves that allowed the board to leave the captivity of one of the rollers
Humor us and run your project again please, but this time make your board a little over 7" longer than whatever your on-screen board length is
When you are at the machine, Select "Center" when the prompt comes up on the LCD display and continue on with bit loading, etc
Im pretty confident your project will come out right this time because the board will be secured under both rollers at all times
Please let us know how you make out
