HELP!!!

Post by Brett Wiley »

:wall: Man, I feel like such a newbie. While measuring the length of tool the long way. I seem to have rammed my fly cutter bit stright through my spoilboard. Jogged it a little too far... And now i cant seem to get passed the errors and such to jog it back up. it just stuck down. Im trying everything short of calling thermwood. I dont think this is a machine specific problem, i have a C40. Can someone help me out?? What other info do you need? Thanks in advance. Brett

Well i fixed it. :beer: Thanks to everyone who was going to help. I dont really know what i did... but its back to normal, just now have to fix or replace my spoilboard. Ive been programming and running cnc's for about 2 years collectively now and everyday i still feel like this is my first. haha.

Cheers - Brett

Sorry to hear about that Brett, I did that once too. Not pretty....
Hope you are back up and running and your spindle is OK.

Thank god nothing happened with the spindle, glad theres safetys and such for accidents. Luckily no damage to the spindle, or shroud. And I escaped by only needed minimal bondo to fill in the board, 5X8 sheets arent cheap.
