Am I missing something? Since I upgraded to 2.05 I don't seem to have the virtual-zero buttons anymore, and the program does not ask me if I wan to use the previous settings. I checked the web site and I can only find information that I am running the most current version.

Tim, I have both the Carvewright model C and the Shark HD Pro and the new Rotary Jig from LHR handles 1" - 4.25" diameter stock and 5.5" to 13" in length. it's tough to scale against what's in the photo you posted, but it looks like the spiral in the jig is about 1.25" in diameter and there isn't mu...
