Joe, thank you for your kind words. My family works very hard to offer a high quality website, product, and experience to our customers. I very much appreciate your wisdom and often prod the sign...

I find that hard to believe. Congratulations, if you are actually able to pull that off! I hope others are discerning and don't get false hopes.

I'd love to hear what you think you can sell the barrel tops for. Especially, your "wholesale" price.

I am in Central Kentucky if that works for you. I don't have Aspire, I use ArtCAM Pro.

Kind regards,

I find it faster and easier to cut edge profiles on small panels on my router table. A handheld router would be O.K. if you can hold the panels with a vacuum jig so as to not...

I do this all the time for the sign guys for whom I cut. They put corners in their vector files and printed on their masked material. (We started with cross hairs, but found that...

I turned the raster to 0 degrees and the toolpath still appears to be creating a bulbous part. I have attached a screen shot.

Kind regards,

The part is a Gothic Spire. There are supposed to twelve of these going on top of an antique cabinet.

Kind regards,

Thank you for your help. The fist image was just to show what the model is supposed to look like. I rotated the model 90 degrees in X and then lowered it into the material 1/2 the...

Greetings,

I have had a few projects come in that I would have liked to machine rotary on my indexer parallel to the Y axis on my machine. I have not had any success in getting the models to...

You will certainly want to ramp into the aluminum. Your feed rates will also need to be slowed waaaaay down. Let us know how it goes.

Have a look at the chip load calculator in the SB software. For MDF, Onsrud recommends a .003" to .007" chip load for a 5/32" cutter. Your settings (3ips at 16K) would give you a .005" chip which...

I think your feed rate may be a little too high for that size bit (especially a down cut). The bit may be deflecting. Can you supply more specifics such as cutter part #, feed rate, rpm, and step...

I purchased the 30V and 60V In-Groove System sets a couple of years ago. I too had tips breaking off in MDF! I confirmed speeds and feeds with Amana's tech support. I sent them...

I have installed a new USB card, 4Gb of memory, and a video card in my control computer and I can now run my oval offset area clear file at 6IPS without any JERK/BANGS.

A great supplier for PolyMetal here in Central KY is N.Glantz & Son. They have locations all over the U.S. 3MM 4x8 white two sides $60.51. 6MM 4x8 white two sides $85.43. You can give them a call...

The sign guys that I cut for use PolyMetal. It is sometimes less than half the cost of Dibond and it is hard to tell the difference.

I am pretty sure that my control computer is the problem. I have ordered a USB card, a video card and some more memory to shore up my computer. I will report back in a few days. ...

I originally thought that I wanted a 4x4 machine. I am so glad that I purchased a 4x8.

Thank you for your responses.

Alan, I didn't have the limit switches on when it happened. After your response I went out and air cut the file with the limit switches on and off...

A few days ago I was running an area clear offset strategy toolpath with a .375” round nosed end mill at a 12% SO at 6 IPS in an oval approximately 22” x 15". Approximately a third...

Greetings,

I used a 1/2" valve because the area of a 1/2" circle is the same as the sum of the area of four 1/4" circles. In may case, I read 11 in/Hg with all motors running, all the zones...
