| Registered User Jr. Member |  Carvewright Question I fell in love with demo on Wood about the Carvewright machine. What took this guy mins. would take me hours. Plus the designs would completely blow me out of the ballpark. Before I buy something I check the 'reviews' section on sears website: http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_00921754000P I put the option of the reviews to 'low to high' and after reading the first 30 out of 107 reviews, well, it scared the heck outta me to shell out over a month's salary to purchase a machine that was pure trouble. Even the good reviews are not that good. Finally, my question is: Are these reviews correct and has anyone here had the set of problems that are listed in these reviews? Thank You in advance for your help. |

| Forum Contributer Supreme Forum King  | Hi Broken Arrow I'm not sure what I can add ,you have the reviews.. I have one and I would give it 5 stars out of 5 stars.. I will say this machine is not for everyone...! ! ! ! ! You will need to read,read,read, and think, think and think ,it's not like a band saw,table saw,router,etc... where you can flip the switch on and go to work... I also had a error or two at 1st. then I checked the manual and the Carvewright forum and fixed the errors, most of them because I didn't read the maunal over and over...  I got the machine in April 2007 and have made many many items with it... I will say I got the 5 year.warr.with it from Sears, fix or replace or refund with in 5 years..so to say if it screws up in 5 years I'm covered...that beats any warr. I have on any of my other tools.. But I will say it AGAIN it's not for everyone, only the ones that want to take on a challenge ... You can make your own from square one but that's more of a challenge than I wanted to take on... http://www.cnczone.com/ Good LUck with your quest.. Great little show and tell Demo for the Machine http://link.brightcove.com/services/...ctid1545128327 ========== Quote:
