The question I have, how can I reduce the time carving on the CW. The opening is 3.8" Wide by 36" long. With a normal carve setting, it will take 2 hours to complete. I was thinking I might be able to carve a small region around the outer edges as well as the thumb ports and then do the rest with my router. I am not very good with a router as I have never used mine.
I am uploading the .MPC in case anyone want to take a try and see if they can find a better way to complete the long carve.
Thanks for any help as I am still trying to get something started with my new machine.
