Hey everyone!

I have a great project for anyone who’s interested! I currently have about 4 hours of footage and I’m in the process of skimming it down a lot. The footage goes over the complete design from scratch as well as the prep and cutting and assembly. It should be out soon.
Take care,
Tom

Got it better but it’s still not perfect. Ripped apart the whole machine cleaned and tightened the Y. I noticed I was able to push it just a hair while it was on.... got a big improvement in triangular shapes.... the square is still a little funny. I tried a few different angles from 58 to 62 with n...

Hello! Over the past two years I have perfected my 3d carving and finally decided to start working on some v carving for doing inlays on flat surfaces. Thinking to my self this will be cake! I have now ran into an issue which I thought would be an easy fix and cannot seem to find a solution. I am ru...

Rando, Thank you for the informative reply. I think I possibly have found the issue and will post it in case anyone else has this problem. A few weeks ago I started saving my toolpaths all at once. Since doing that my controller reset to 100, got that back to 4003. Then all those problems I was talk...

Hello everyone, This week I started loosing full communication of the Z axis. During a roughing tool path z stopped moving up and down. I stopped the machine and it would not move manually. Tested power and there was power going to the motor. When switching the wires y still would not move Z up or d...

Thank you! I can’t wait to start my next one. I now understand the addiction!

Here is a link for what next wave sent me. Hopefully it can help someone else out in the future. https://p13.zdusercontent.com/attachment/546085/0fNCuEd9KhfQZN4GeIsURcoNA?token=eyJhbGciOiJkaXIiLCJlbmMiOiJBMTI4Q0JDLUhTMjU2In0..FlywsTZ0uk7YXIPa0JLqpg.RvRbxeKuypmcdYeED-yPhxvtYQdUDmjBBxTWLlA4C6iKEd3VfJp...

My projects came out pretty well but they were small. The one larger v carving I noticed very faint lines for each pass. My initial thought was it was out of square... then the stl files I ran seemed to have come out almost perfect. Next wave sent me a diagram and I have it set much better now. It’s...

Hello, I have had my hd 5 for about two weeks now and ran 3 projects so far to test everything out. I am now getting ready to set the squareness but it seems so far off that I’m not sure how I should approach this. It seems like the entire casing needs to be adjusted on the guide rails first? There ...

Thanks!
