What you describe is normal. Check pages 14-17 of the Quick Start Guide: https://www.shopbottools.com/ShopBotDocs/files/DTQuickstartGuide_ShipAug2017.pdf
I've been cutting aluminum for 8 years. I cut aluminum 99% of the time. About the only exception is when I surface the spoil board. I began with a 2007 PRS Standard 4' x 8' with HSD 2.2 HP spindle. I...
Search the forum for "aluminum". Has been discussed many times. Most important, though, is to use the right aluminum. Choose 6061 and avoid 5052, for example.
Another on-its-side move. No problems at all.

Another quick & dirty approach. Just took a piece of scrap plywood and cut holes and pockets with the ShopBot. Pockets are for storing backup end mills. Sometimes I peel the labels off the Onsrud...
There are lots of free websites which will scan an image and give you matching fonts.
One of them, WhatTheFont!, found these matches:
• AZ Varsity
• Northfork JNL
• Rockwell Condensed
I want to semi-retire and divest myself of one of my business lines (contemporary metal clocks), but I’m not sure how to go about it. I use a ShopBot for many of the pieces, and I’m going to keep...

I'm a little reluctant to post about yet another vacuum hold down solution, but perhaps someone else can benefit from seeing how I've setup my Desktop MAX. I'm certainly thankful for information from...
I need to extend the dust skirt on my Desktop MAX when using long end mills. I'm envisioning something like the extension offered for the Kent dust skirt I had on my PRS. Before I take the time to...
Here is where I got extra collets for my Desktop MAX. They sell the same Techniks ER20 collets that ShopBot supplies and offer free shipping as well.
Just say you're happy to do it their way as long as you can add [sic] after the incorrect grammar and/or spelling. :cool:
Sold. And I'm ordering my new Desktop MAX today!
Here's a thread which explains how to hook up an indicator light.

The only ShopBot connection is that I know many of you use SculptNoveau products, as do I. My shop does not have a sink, so cleaning brushes every time I use them is a nuisance. Here is what I came...
I'm sure Andrew could make good use of this:

It really depends upon your marketing plan. I sell my products through craft galleries across the country and very rarely sell retail. I design my products with the final retail price in mind. The...
