I'd be interested in what kind of results that can produce. I'm sure the Carvewright will work for somebody too. It's not the be all-end all, but it was fun to build, it is fun to work with, and it works for me. Knowing that there is this amount of error, I could theoretically adjust my inlay or cavity to make the space smaller by adjusting my offset in my Cad drawing. I know it isn't perfect, but for a comparison, A shopbot ( 7000 dollars) has a cutting accuracy of +/. Perhaps a slower speed and sharper bit would have yielded a different result closer to the. 480-.484 and a flawless cut should have been. I did this at a high rate of speed with a dull bit with no regard to grain direction or climb milling/conventional milling.



The last pass was 4 in back to the starting position in the y axis. With a piece of walnut double taped down to the table, I ran a 1/4 dia straight bit through the wood a little more than 1/8" deep for 4 inches in the Y axis. All this talk about accuracy made me go down and do a test.
