I have some compression spirals for sale in the tools, I’ve been routing 2 sided melamine, laminate and veneers with this type of tool for over 10 years and won't use anything else.
It’s a down...

4 year AlphaCam user, it worked well for me, many features, good support.

Morning abelloise:
Pretty much any spray-paint works.
As for sealer / clear, any polyurethane style works fine.
As in my original post I use a lot of veneers, just the core is MDF, so by sealing,...

Good evening Tyler,
Let me start by saying I commend you for wanting to stand behind a product that you distribute and even wanting to get involved in this situation.

I am open to remedies to...

Ok Dave, Maybe your right, maybe I did blow this out of proportion, but I feel like maybe your company never took it seriously enough when I contacted you about the issues we’ve been discussing here...

Guys, I can appreciate all your views, keep an eye on this post for my reply coming soon, and you’re right snuffy plaz, this isn’t the place for this crap, but I was never heard before when I tried...

I was wondering if anybody is using or has used a Laser projection system to setup pods for a CNC.
What are your thoughts good or bad?
Thanks.

Hey sploo, I was just reading your post and thought I would return the favor as you have helped me in the past, “Problems with new machine” post, I haven’t been on here in a while as I finally got...

This is driving me crazy.
I swapped the Z gecko drive with the Y drive and no change and the Z still works fine.
The Y just goes in whatever direction it chooses, it does go in both directions,...

I just don’t know guys…
I checked the wires, I didn’t find anything.
I didn’t do any wire swapping yet, I guess that’s my next step.
I did swap the motors, that didn’t do any good, I guess it...

Yeah I have no idea, it all kinda came on at once, It was doing fine, then it didn’t position correctly in the Y (where I feel like I lost steps), I stopped the program and the Y just hasn’t worked...

How much static would it take to cause that?? Are you thinking like a surge???
Thanks,
Kev

Ok lets see if I can explain this.
I have a new machine a 24X36 tabletop with geckos and steppers and had it running pretty well until the cold set in last weekend.
I was running a program that I...

Hi, I do a lot of signs with an mdf core with a maple veneer, I have good results in the following order.
1. Route
2. Stain (if desired)
3. Clear coat.
4. Paint (usually spray)
5. Sand
6. Clear...

Well that fixed the problem with the mirroring, it also moved the home position to the left side of the table and that was something I wanted to change so I got a 2 for 1 deal out of that.
Now I...

I think you may be correct, as I sit here and think about it, I’m thinking it must be the Y axis.
That’s a good place to start.
Thanks.

Sorry guy’s it’s a 24X36 router I haven’t mentioned the name of the manufacturer here due to we are still dealing with some issues that have yet to be resolved and like some of the earlier threads...

I just switched all those settings and got the same thing.
Only one direction..

RRRRRRRRR ok I’ll get the mach3 book out and see if it can help…
I know I’m just missing the obvious and I’m gonna kick myself.
Shouldn’t an XML from the manufacturer, that built, wired and tested...

Hummm I just went and switched them and its still heading in the same direction.
Do I need to restart mach after the change?
I’m almost out of Y, I gotta turn this thing around LOL…..
I messed...

Ok I’m close, I did get the XML file today. It’s kinda working.
The problem I have now is when I try to home it, it goes to the exact opposite ends of the machine, away from the home switches. So I...

In Mach3 isn’t the XML file the machine configurations/parameters for things like port and pin settings inputs and outputs ect??
And the .SET files are just screens or????
I contacted the...

Just curious..

We have the pod placement feature on our Busellatos supposedly they use that, but still hitting pods and I guess it’s a little time consuming.
I used to just set the part thickness up and run it...

Good morning everybody.
Ok I’ll try to make this short.
What methods do you use to teach a newbie machine operator to set up the pods for through operations?
We are going through operators and...

Well,,, here we go guys, I called Visa back and wasn’t so polite this time and the funds have been placed in dispute status.
I just called the manufacturer back asking for the tracking number a 3rd...

Actually I did that exact thing, I had asked about doing the upgrade myself, he said it wasn’t possible, and I said “so you sent me a machine that is not what I ordered and paid for, and now you’re...

It seems pointless to “Fight this” as the legal cost would easily surpass the cost of the machine (and they know that).
They’re a big company, and I’m just a broke, single father of 3 little guys,...

LOL!! I wish I were sleeping with the owner’s daughter at least I could take all this frustration out on somebody…….. J
I called visa after my last post , no help from them on this, they said send...

Hey Guys,
Maybe I’m just fooling myself but I still have hope that the manufacturer will come through and correct the problem, if that’s the case I should have a great machine.
Who am I kidding??? ...
