Over the past few weeks we have been working to put together an Aman Tooldatabase. This will go into the next update of the Carveco products, but for now I have attached it here.
To use it, you will firstly need to unzip it so it shows the .TDB file.
To install it you just need to open the tool database in the software and select import, and your tools will be added in.
If you see any tools that are missing that anyone would like in the library let us know and we can add them in updates.
Also like many other bits of software we tend to air on the side of safety, so speeds, feeds, stepovers and step downs are cautious. We always recommend taking things slow until you get use to tools, material and the machine.
Hi Rob - I started using Carveco Maker yesterday for the first time and installed the Amana database. I couldnāt find the 45771-K 30 degree bit in the library. I probably just overlooked it, but if not, Iād like to see it added to the list.
You are totally correct, that one is missing, Ill get this one added to the software for an upcoming update. If you spot anymore you commonly use, let me know and Ill get the added.
I might just be blind but I canāt seem to find the 48282-K in the current database either.
Itās not a bit Iāve used yet, but itās packaged with one of the more popular āstarter setsā from Amana. Was just fleshing out my custom library so I didnāt have to scroll through the big lists, but I didnāt see it there.
A few of the tools may not be in our tool list, we will add these tools to the list for an upcoming release, apologies for that, we try to check on the tool manufacturers databases when we can.
I can also create a small video to show you how to create your own tools based upon the Amana database, incase you find any others you need.
I would love a video on how to add my own tools from the Amana Tools database. Evidently, I am stumped at how to add them individually. Specifically, right now the 46282-K. Would you put it in as a ballnose or would you put it in as a Vbit?
When is the next Amana tool database update going to happen? It seems itās been 3 years since the last one that was posted here. Iām not trying to be a jerk ā¦ genuine question. Am I missing something? Because Iād like an updated Amana tool library as well. It shouldnāt be so hard for us to use these bits correctly via Carveco. Many thanks
Hi and apologies for the delay, Im not getting on here as much as Iād liked. Unlike the other tool suppliers libraries who are updating the libraries themselves as the have new tools, we are having to do the Amana tools as they are requested at Carveco. If you are missing any please message support@carveco.com and they can get created.
it wasnt in either, where can I find the most updated file?
Also I would be great to have a search feature in the āTool Databaseā form. It helps to quickly see if things are there or not instead of opening each one and relying on your eye not to miss it, just a suggestion.
