I ran a long job last night, and due to that silly USB issue with Win10, I just off the controller to re-establish the connection to my PC. Only the controller would not turn on. I checked the fuse, it looked fine, but changed it out anyway. It still will not turn on. I'm getting power to the panel....

This won't help exactly do what you're looking for, but may give you some ideas. I have run into the problem you have a few times and now have 0,0 a known x,y distance from the limits of my shark. Plus I usually punch a small hole with the bit a known distance from 0,0 just in case I lose it (power ...

I'm sorry I don't recall exactly how, given I'm away from the shop, but I believe you can save the virtual settings, and restore them. I had always assumed that meant a touchplate zeroing would just reset the plane for that x,y position. Since the largest cut it typically the cut-out profile I would...

Those Paradise boxes are cool aren't they. Amazing how so many of us take the basic box and customize. BTW, very cool that you did that for the Chief!

Wow, that is truly impressive. Your creating all the info for the rest of us, is awesome. - thank you

I've been looking at the HD4, as an replacement to my HD PRO. I like the beefier guides and what appears to be a stronger structure. But I'm hearing that it only works with the pendant. Meaning the computer interface for jogging, testing the path perimeter, re-registering, and quick interfaces is go...

Very cool. What size bit are you using, just wondering what kind of detail is realistic with the 4th axis?

Thank you all for your inputs and suggestions. In my case my Shark is on one side of the garage, and the dust collection in an outside shed on the far side. So a wireless set up sounds ideal. Still not really confident I've identified the correct iVac components. The dust collector is 115v 20amp. Th...

Thank you guys, Tom, please could you elaborate a bit more on which iVac parts those are. I like idea of the device wrapped around the router wirelessly turning on the dust collector. My DC is pulling nearly 20 amps at start, so that end must be capable. The standard iVac Max's at 15. Again thank yo...

I'm sure this must have been discussed, and I'm just choosing the wrong search words. Has anyone figured out how to have a dust collector come on/off with the router using the control box? I know the power to the box is not enough to drive both; but want to have the dust collector come on and off wi...
