I replaced the MDF with A/C oak. On top of that I added 1/4" luan.(glued) Then I milled it flat with the largest bit I had. I use no t slots. Instead I either cut my stock slightly larger or look at my tool paths to where I can safely countersink a screw through the stock and into the bed. The heck ...

I reseated the wires on the punchdown blocks inside the controller. Back in buisness. Talked to a different tech rep. He saved me 180 bucks plus shipping. Thank you!

Swapped the x and y harnesses. Now the y freezes up in the negative. Pretty sure its the controller now. I'm sending it in to be looked at. Thanks for all the posts guys.

I was on the phone with next wave support and he had me check the coupler for loose set screws. All were fine. When the controller is off I can move the x axis freely accross the gantry. I will check the bearings. I noticed today the problem is getting worse. When I jog the -x it freezes up as if it...

Issue isn't resolved. I slowed the machine down to 35%. I was able to make it through two pieces on my panel and on the third piece the machine made it to a half ellipse and I noticed it glitch a little in the tool path. When it made it back to the the start point it was off the width of the cutter ...

cutter 1/4" pass depth.110 step over .100 mat'l thickness 3/4 total passes 7 speed 45% Along with feel is noise. When hogging material you can here it. With the shark I always start at 25% and work my way up paying close attention to the pitch of the cutter. I wasn't hogging mat'l in this case. I wa...

The story goes on with after realizing there was a problem with the end result I would replace the scrap piece :x with a fresh blank, reload the exact same file, run the path again, and the piece would come out perfect. I just ran that same circle pattern after blowing out the controller and driver ...

The last few projects I have ran came up with miscuts and by miscuts I mean in comparison to the drawing or tool path a hole or feature is off a pretty reasonable amount. With this last project I was cutting a five inch circle and I litterally watched the shark pro shift in the negative Y axis (mid ...

thank you for the response, I talked with tim and he said the same also. I will be sending it asap.

One day I'm cutting fine and the next day I try to find center on my work piece and then I realize my x axis no longer works! Anyone eles have this problem yet? Haven't even had the pro for a year. HELP!
