Bill,

These are three seperate knowledge/skill domain, albeit...

How about flat transparent bellows attached on either sides of the X and Y car to contain the chips. Then maybe at the end of the cutting, use Paco's air hose to robot sweep the chips towards a...

Hey Gerald,

Just a suggestion, try your file from your post:

Is this router more ,equal, or less noisy than the PG?

Paco,
I also tried the files coming out of Ashlar Cobalt and I got the same problem. I tried DXF12, DXF 14, DXF2000, with the results each time.

My goal was to use PartWizard to create the...

Paco,
I believe the drawing was made in SolidEdge 18 then exported to DXF 14. I would be surprised if ArtCAM could import directly from SolidEdge, but who knows. The thing is though, I have many...

Hey guys,

Here are a few pictures that might help understand.

Here is just after importing my file:

Now I ungroup. Then when I try to click on different single segment I get:

Thanks Brady, but I don't have "ungroup all" when I right click. All I have is a "Ungroup Vector(s)" which is the command I used before.

Here is my right click menu:

Hey guys,

What would be a good bit and appropriate speeds for cutting foamcore?

Hey everyone,

The other day I was trying my hand with Part Wizard. After I import a DXF file I do a first Ungroup, but then I still have subsets of vectors that appear to be grouped because they...

I think there is a need for a web page with all sorts of products that might be of interest to ShopBotters. I think your efforts are not lost. It's just that it takes time and repeated exposure. You...

Eh Bill,

Saw that site a while back and thought it was a great way for cooperative promotion. Especially the location map tool. Buying closest to where you live is good for the environment and...

Hello,

I read a mention (can't remember where) about a plugin architecture for the ShopBot software. Would it be possible to have more details about this?

thanks,

Could this vacuum cleaner be used with pucks? In fact can any? The puck systems I have seen all used vacuum pumps if I remember correctly.

Paco, the only difference seems to be the lack of the...

WOW! That's CAD$ 184.00 shipping included. It's listed at CAD$ 385.00 on Fein Canada website! Does anyone know if there would be other fees (such as broker fees, etc.)? They seem to be using FedEx. ...

I see a Shopbot as a CNC tool mover. The more tool heads there are, the more opportunities their are for botters. Wouldn't it be great if their was a cutting/creasing head like one of these at a...

Thanks David that's the one I was looking for.

Simon,
Maybe only simple cut paterns can be cut. Like paterns of boxes, etc. For mor complex maybe one could use temporary spay adhesive to mount the card stock on some backing.

Jerry, ...

Hello Everyone,
This is not related to Shopbot per say, but I'm looking for information on entry level Vinyl cutters that can cut card stock, or other material thicker then vinyl. I saw the Roland...

I think using a ShopBot is fun enought. There should be a ShopBot keypad for the Zboard.
