Hi guys, im new to the x-carve and carving in general. ive had the 1000mm xcarve for a few months now and have had a few success but currently im having an issue when i cut a shape out such as a square. usually 2 of the four edges have a line going thru it. almost as if the bit starts bending in certain areas. ive provide pictures.
this side has clean edge
this one doesnt
same thing with this one
i have read thru the forums in search for answers and have made adjustments from tightening the belts correctly, making sure all nuts and bolts are tight, adjusting the v wheels properly but nothing i do seems to work.i have noticed that there is some play on the spindle mount. when i move it side to side you can see the v wheel bearing pop out slightly. there doesn’t seem to be a way to adjust them other than tightening the bolts which i have done. this issue also seems to happen with any material is use (acrylic both cast and extruded, pvc, aluminum composite, etc.). aside from this issue i also noticed that when creating multiple of the same shapes at once they do not come out the same size which doesn’t make sense to me. any help would be appreciated.
