This issue should be fixed in the latest update from Vectric (10.54) What post processor are you using? Let us know if it still doesn't work with...
Vectric claim (today) that the latest release fixes the grbl post processors - they don't mention Openbuilds or Duet versions. Alex.
This is the "old" inch post processor from Vectric - I haven't had a chance to test it. Alex. PS Vectric claim the latest release (today) fixes...
Another advantage would be that you don't have to have anything touching the surface of the guitar. Alex.
But for the sort of jobs you described it really wouldn't be difficult to programme the machine - your drawing would define the boundaries -...
But you could send the code for a move - ie use the stepper motors to move the router around while cutting. Would be a bit slower than hand...
In that case, based on personal experience, check the crimp connectors connecting the wiring (all of it) to the headers on the Duet. When I first...
When you upgraded Vectric did you migrate everything from your previous version (especially post processors). I did mine so I can't check if the...
I haven't posted the Vcarve files because this really is a job anyone should be able to do in Vectric - choose your own clipart for example. If...
I tried some simple files using the grbl (mm) (*.gcode) and Openbuilds (mm) post processors and they seem to be working OK. As @Peter Van Der Walt...
Suspect recent major Vectric upgrade - did you migrate everything (especially post processors) from your previous version if this might apply to...

I wouldn't think there is a direct route - Vectric V-carve is basically a 2D drawing program. The 2.5D bit comes with the cam section (creating...
I found I had to put the limit switches the opposite way round from the instructions to make sure that the Y gantry plate hit it reliably. Alex.
Is this the Duet controller? Did you remember to change back the M564 line to S1 H1? Alex. PS the Duet only uses the switches for homing with the...
Tip for the tiling toolpath - I used "feed through in Y" - I put a fence on the Y axis and then used the router to take a skim off the face. That...
I said I would make a coat rack 5 years ago when we bought this house. As I explained to my wife, if I'd done it then it would have been a lot...
You should be able to increase your depth of cut to 4 mm (rule of thumb - doc = 1/2 bit diameter). I don't often run my Makita (actually a Chinese...
If this is at the start of a job have you checked the Z safe/clearance height set in your cam software compared to the available amount of...
I surface the lower board only when I need to use it (I'm a model maker so 90% of my jobs are 6 mm thick or less). I attach the top board (which...
