I have the same problem. In the new style forum none of the categories will show me that there are new posts. As a result I have to also look and try to remember what I have and have not read. At least it keeps me coming back on a daily basis. Hate to think what is going to happen when I go away for...

If you could have a look it would be mu...

Consistent depth

Circles

HI guys,

Just a real short question, Has anyone else had the problem that their circles are not coming out as circles but rather as elipses. I don't know wether it is with Vcarve or again with my post processor.

VCP or cut3D

Hi guys Just a short question. I make the odd pen out of different materials and thought it would be good if I could engrave or very lightly v-carve a logo a message or name into the wood or whatever the pen is made from. This entails v-carving onto a curved surface albeit a very slight curve. Is th...
