ooohh really?? jeez… ok, let me see here
wow, Phil… you’ve got to be kidding me! I moved easel.PP into the MYpostP folder, refreshed aspire and “easel” now shows in the toolpath gcode drop box. I’m going to recalculate all these toolpaths, resave them as “easel” toolpaths and upload them into Easel…
Is there anything else I am missing before I go carve??
Great! I am going to do that right now… .do you think this will solve the issue of the misalignment?
For some reason, when I save the project to my desktop (not toolpaths), I lose the toolpaths and also the texts I write into the project? And i cant reopen it as an editable project anymore… It’s just grouped together now… So i have to redo about half an hour of work…
i basically just went to file, save-as, “desktop” save.
Then i closed out aspire.
I opened aspire back up, and imported the saved project.
When it reopened, it was not editable any more. It was grouped, and I’m not able to ungroup it.
Also, the v-carve text is missing. It did not save.
Lastly, the toolpaths are not there anymore either.
this is a bummer… lots of time lost
Robert,
Thank you for sending me that. However, unfortunately this was not “checked”.
I think I am at a point where I will have to do 1 of 2 things:
Use a large, square piece of wood rather than a circle. Which then it wouldn’t matter if the project parameters were “off” in easel (from what I save in Aspire)
Next, I think I am going to try and get UGS to operate my x-carve. I am going to totally stop using easel as the “operating system”.
I love a challenge… but this is a huge headache!!!
Inventables simply decided to not respond back to me.
Thanks Robert. I’m going to draw an L on the X/Y 0 lines and carve. I did this once before but who knows… I’m desperate by now.
I’ll let you guys know as I progress…
Ahh! You are a genius. Duh, makes perfect sense. I’m going to do that tomorrow! Thanks guys @PhilJohnson
Awesome!! This will keep me up all night researching. Can’t wait for tomorrow to come!!
