Jason, Where is the setting to let the 3/8 and 1/2\" cutter to interpolate the holes for kd/rta holes and hinges. When I try to write the code it says there is not a tool avialable for those operations. Just wondering if there is a setting I am missing that would allow those operations with one...

bobcad/cam

I have been using bobcad/cam for many years on different machines. The software is very similar to autocad. It is very user friendly, you can learn it on your own, but if you want to get up and running right away I would get the training videos or take a training class. As for pricing the software i...

Rotary Playback

It is something that I am very interested in, but would probably not purchase for 6 months. If you have a video I would like to see it in operation.

Thanks,

MELAMINE AND RAMPING

I have been experiencing some problems when cutting melamine panels. I am using a 1/2\" compressing spiral and while the cutter is ramping the up-cut on the bit is chipping the melamine. I was wondering what everyone else was doing about this. I thought about not ramping and just plunging into ...
