I have a machine I purchased when the 1000 was the latest and greatest in x-carves. Had it for three years before I even set it up, today I am attempting my first carve. I made it all the way through to the "work zone" step everything worked fine until I go to the probing step, it is not automatically probing and I cannot figure out the problem. I have checked all wiring; everything goes up and down as it should with the arrow buttons.

Well what was the problem? My z probe is doing the same thing, how do i fix it?

[@kirkachenbach]

Anyone know why I don't have the z probe option? it's plugged in and don't have the option in "work zero"

Great video. Thanks for posting it. When you set up your x,y zero point, do you place the edge of the bit on the outside corner of the material or directly on top of the corner itself. I recently got an xcarve and I'm having difficulty nailing this down. I'd imagine it gets even trickier when you have to change out a bit for another cut like you did in the video. Thanks again.

I place the bit on top of the corner. With a downcut bit I does not matter as much because you have the thickness of the bit itself to compensate for the edge, but for a V-bit you will lose your edges if you go to the outside.
