Re: z plunging on profile cut

I originally started using this method to keep from marking up my table top when cutting out smaller parts. I have not cut into my top or spoil board since starting this over a year ago. There is very small text on the top and setting the z "0" to the top of the material to cut the text works best a...

z plunging on profile cut

I have been cutting out my parts by setting the z "0" to the bottom of the material and calculating my cutout. All other toolpaths are done by setting z "0" to the top of the material. I have noticed since the upgrade to 8.5 that the z is plunging nearly all the way to the bottom of the material, re...

Re: V8 Tutorial Video Browser

Found the file. It was located here "C:\Users\Public\Documents\Vectric Files\Tutorial Files\ProductVersion" as a hidden file. I went into my internet browser and set this location up as a second home page C:\Users\Public\Documents\Vectric Files\Tutorial Files\ProductVersion/index.html Now when I cli...

Re: V8 Tutorial Video Browser

Index.html is not there.

That folder only contains the two folders with the downloaded tutorials.

Re: V8 Tutorial Video Browser

I did find where my downloads went. C:\Users\Public\Documents\Vectric Files\Tutorial Files\Aspire V8.0 That contains folders for each tutorial I have downloaded. Now how do I point the browser tab to that?? Or is it supposed to go online to the videos offered at Vectric.com?? and how do I point it t...

V8 Tutorial Video Browser

When I hit the link "Tutorial Video Browser" I get sent to my internet opening page.

I have down loaded a couple of tutorials, what am I doing wrong?

Re: Out of Memory

Thanks for all the advice. To get the tool path to generate I ran the smoothing function again. I was trying to save as much detail as possible. Unfortunately I broke a shaft on a motor last night and won't be able to carve the results for a while. At least when we get to the 64 bit level I'll be re...

Out of Memory

I just upgraded computers so hardware is not the problem. I've got 16gig of ram in the new computer, I7 processor, checking task manager shows I am only using 25% of memory. I am trying to run a tool path on a large topo and am getting the "Out of Memory" error. I was able to get a tool path created...

Re: Aspire 4.5 Copy & Paste problem

I am also having a problem with copy/paste. When I do a couple of copy/paste functions, I get an error, and it shuts down the program. This just started after upgrading to 4.509 yesterday. I am unable to get much done before the error shows up and zaps my work into the ozone. I am still working with...

Question, what's with the circles around the area of the third line?

Thanks for the comments.

The circles are what happens when you do not chuck up a flat end mill to cut your texture toolpath. The endmill I used was slightly concave on the end.

Another Raccoon

This one was for fun. My Brother-in-law is in a constant battle with the raccoons. Last time I stayed there, I was awaken at 2:00am with shot gun blasts. I got up to check it out and there he was with his 2 million candle power spot light shooting the raccoons out of the trees. It took me a while, b...

Re: Free Project Wreath

Check your stepover setting. I usually run 8 to 10 percent on a 3d finish toolpath.
