Re: How do I add router bits to pulldown menu?

Hi Saul - I'm not exactly sure what you mean when you say the bit information is blank when you are editing the tool database and have selected New Tool. I think you are seeing what what I've attached in the jpg labeled step 1. VcarvePro_NewTool.JPG If this is the case, your next step is to go to th...

Re: How do I add router bits to pulldown menu?

Hi Saul - the VCarve Pro Reference Manual has a pretty good write up on this. The manual is not installed when the VCarve Pro installation occurs, but is available on the installation DVD. It is one of the choices on the UI that pops up when you load the DVD. You can open it from there, and then sav...

Re: CNCShark Pro Plus - What's in the Box

A fair question - while considering the various CNC machines, some had more pictures/views and description of what to expect and how than others. This is not just the shipping part - like a what is in the box section of the manual, but more info in general. I'm pleased with this decision and thought...

CNC Shark Pro Plus Setup Notes-Compliments InstructionManual

I thought I'd share my setup notes with the community. I hope some find them useful. These notes compliment the documentation on the Shark Pro Plus found in the current CNC Shark Pro Plus manual. As the forum doesn't currently allow the upload of a pdf, I've placed the document at a file sharing sit...

CNCShark Pro Plus - What's in the Box

Hi All - I've just received my CNCShark Pro Plus and I thought it would be of interest to many on the forum who are thinking about getting one, or have one enroute, to see "what is in the box". I know I would have liked to review this information prior to deciding to purchase. Unfortunately, this fo...

Re: Shark does unexplicable and inconsistant actions

With regard to the g code not scrolling - and at that point the pause is not available - I'm running a laptop, and I'd ensured that the screen saver was off, and all the other energy saving stuff. What I didn't consider is that the job may run for a while, and I'd be walking away. On my laptop, ther...

Re: Aligning Shapes?

I'm assuming you're using V Carve - and yes, there are guides available (like Sketchup and many other drawing apps). You can pull them from the top or left side by placing your cursor in the ruler, clicking and holding left mouse and dragging the guide to the desired spot. On setting the pass depth ...
