Hello everyone! Getting more familiar with my shopbot finally! Still having a couple different issues. When I send the shopbot from one side of the table to the order using only one axis in this case x. I start at X - 0 and send it to X - 96 (running a 4' x 8' table) it will be fine. The next day or later that day if I run X - 0 to X - 96 it will be roughly 3/16 off from the edge. Now I dont have a laser guide I simply use a .25" bit and find center. Does anyone else have this problem? Is there something I need to check on my machine or a possible part that may need to be delt with? Once again I appreciate all your help!

Joshua,

I don't know about the table problem but, instead of a .25" bit use a v bit instead for more accuracy.
