Re: V Carve Question

Hi Bill, When I've seen this problem before, it was caused by neglecting to change from a laser post processor to a pp used for routing. That's my best guess...

I use RV Antifreeze (Propylene Glycol) in my spindle. It is made with pink dye in it to indicate that it's relatively nontoxic. RV Antifreeze is recommended by the manufacturer. I don't need to thin it with water. It is ready to use directly from the bottle.

Also check power to the shop...
