ShopBot not cutting accurately!

Mitch,

Here's a recent thread post that will answer your pinion purchase question. Also, use a little blue loctite on those pinion grub screws.

Thanks for that post! Super helpful Good idea on the loctite.

Mitch,

I got to looking at the cuts on my computer- (I was on my phone this afternoon)... now that I see the deviations... I would have to strongly suspect loose or worn
pinions, also. Don't want t sound like a broken record, but check those out first!

Everything works now, thanks for everyone's help!!

It's perfect! All I had to do was re-tighten the y-axis pinion. The accuracy on this machine is incredible.

Thank you everyone! Fixing this was very important, and I'm glad it worked.
