Pumpkin
Every once and a while they let me get out in the shop here at Rockler and makes something... this time I was able to make a pumpkin for the Rockler Facebook page to celebrate Halloween.

Re: What do I really need when buying one of these?
Hi Tony,
You do not need a touch plate as it already comes with the 60th Anniversary Edition. You don't necessarily need a probe unless you plan on copying something that you have already made.
Hope this helps,

Re: Surfacing a Spoil Board
I like McBuster’s idea of going through the machine and making sure nuts and bolts are secure. Many users become concerned about doing this by stating “ I paid $xx and everything should be perfect ”. I would disagree with this assessment as these units are shipped through UPS and in doing so they ca...
Re: Materials
I’m guessing you are looking for 2 ply plastic…. Something that can be engraved, I would do a Google search under “two ply plastic”. As for outdoor finishing applications, there are a couple of things you can use, check out Rockler’s exterior finishes: http://www.rockler.com/general-finishes-exterio...

Re: ABS chip clearing
While working in a plastics machine shop years ago we always used a direct stream of air on the bit via an air compressor. You can set it up where this stream blows toward a vacuum funnel (something like this: http://www.rockler.com/tabletop-dust-fitting ) . http://assets.rockler.com/media/catalog/p...

Re: V-carve corners
If you are not pushing the machine into flex, it looks to me like something may be loose or you have some backlash. Maybe the router in the clamp is loose or possibly a coupler on one of the axes has moved or come loose…. You might also look at all the T-Nuts, making sure they are in place (not loos...

Re: Concentricity Between Tool Changes
I think Tag0110 may be onto something: I would not use an end mill though, I would use a dial indicator in the collet and figure out which way is out which would give you both X and Y. You can easily shim the router clamp front/back/left/right as needed. Could also be as 4D thinker said and maybe th...
