The initial calibration after assembling my X-Carve, as well as the first carve of a calibration test pattern I found on the Inventables project page. Detailed measurements are taken to ensure the machine is calibrated correctly.

Thanks for the video. I receive my X-carve on Saturday and will ensure I run this process. I am looking forward to getting this thing up and running. I will keep a lookout for more post.

Thanks! Glad to hear it was useful!

Thank you for making this video! I’m new to the x-carve, just got a 2018 model that’s in great shape, barely used.

Great vids man...you helped (a little bit) me keep my sanity putting the xcarve together. I just wish the instructions were a little more precise. Got it together tho, and I cant wait to see what it can do

Daniel Arthurs thanks!

well done.....

@aaadeejay 2 года назад

Ugh! The thing that I wanted to see most is where on the left of the project you placed the bit, I’m confused about exactly where you do the XY ?

@DuraWoodworks 2 года назад

Typically, I place the X/Y as close to the bottom left of the work piece as possible. Usually do it by eye.

@AaronKarp 2 года назад

1) Move the bit to approximately the lower left corner (2) Lower the bit (z axis) until it's a hair above the material (3) Move the x/y until the *center* of the bit is right over the bottom left corner.

@willdarter3354 5 лет назад

how do you load the bit? I cannot figure that part out?

@DuraWoodworks 5 лет назад

Will Darter how do you mean? In the router? Or in the easel software?

@Smiiller 2 года назад

Thanks for this video! I would like to know that as well, onto the router, thanks

@legacydirect1394 4 года назад

what bit are you using

@DuraWoodworks 4 года назад

I believe it was a 1/16" spiral upcut bit.

@brasswell1 2 года назад

how about how to actually calibrate. thanks

@tripdagoat 2 месяца назад

You say this is a calibration video, but at no point was anything calibrated. You checked proper assembly, and then ran a calibration check piece but at no point was the machine calibrated. You even day the machine is off, but its good enough for your needs.

@philreed1000 4 года назад

more like hero to zero, so you did not actually calibrate the machine, waste of time

@DuraWoodworks 4 года назад

Sorry to hear you didn't enjoy the video. This was the initial calibration of the machine, which actually didn't need much. Lemme know if you can offer any suggestions on how to more fully calibrate it. Thanks for the watch!

@crashdummy1000 3 года назад

@@DuraWoodworks only suggestion I would have said is the waste board needs to be plained. Because the mdf isn’t true throughout the wasted board. If the waste board isn’t true your depths of cuts can vary because or the difference in the height of the waste board.

@DuraWoodworks 3 года назад

@@crashdummy1000 yeah I’ve definitely read about that since posting this video. Not gonna lie, it scares me a bit to do that but I’m sure I’ll need to at some point haha

@crashdummy1000 3 года назад

@@DuraWoodworks it’s easy. There is plans on the inventible community for the waste board. Make another stock waste board with 1/4 mdf. Mount it to match the holes from stock wasted board. And plain it with a planning bit. This way your stock waste board is still good and you have a disposable waste board now. That you can replace when needed.
