Hey Derek,
you could go to Tom @Geige’s profile, click on “Activity” and find that Tom put the machine Original/X-50 machine into service as it was delivered, and many posts of mine mentioning flaws of the machine that I would first eliminate before putting a $500 wood blank into the machine. I work with expensive wood blanks too.
I also mentioned there that with the move to MASSO, there will be some problems with the machines that will remain.
The issues mentioned are, however, if looked at in detail, are not the Buildbotics’ fault, but I don’t think that you Tom @Geige will come to like the buildbotics-derived Onefinity controller again because you give him the fault for destroying workpieces and your nerves, and it is now obvious that you simply hate it now
