Ok so it works except for one thing. When I move as far x and y as possible it leaves about a half inch on the far right side that does not get flattened.dvandhi posted 8 months ago
Ran absolutely perfect for me. Great instructions. Thanks for the reminder to mark the edges with a pencil. I had a board front left(most used space) that I may not have noticed was low by a little bit after first pass. I cut the amount in half, ran it again, and it is dead-flat now. Thank you very much!!JShipps posted 4 months ago
I ran this program for the first time today on my brand new 5P. The first time I ran it, it took off material from the left side of my waste board only and really nothing from the middle across to the right side. So, I reset Z and ran it again. This time, it removed material across the entire waste board - although still slightly more on the left than the right. Is that normal? And, is the goal to make sure it's removing material all the way across the entire board and you just keep running the program until that happens?Dbeard512 posted 4 months ago
This program worked great for me. I used a different brand of cutter than recommended and everything worked as planned. Thank you for adding the procedure in the notes section. Very helpful.Chapman11 posted 2 months ago
Worked perfectly! I had a lot of tears from my mistakes, and we are back to normal now. Thanks,Alloyd76 posted 2 months ago
@ JShipps - My assumption is that since the program is running a leveling pass it took more off the left side because that side was a little higher. (Hence the need to level it) The idea is to lower the Z a little each time until it skims off a small amount across the entire board front to back & side to side in an equal amount.You must be signed in to leave a comment.
