As always Paw Paw very informative video. I would like to use this flat bar technique to replace the standard round brass z probe I got with my X carve. How would you change the thickness settings for the new probe in Easel?
When you are in a project you have to go back into the machine setup and follow through with all the steps. When you get to the probe, touch for contact, the screen will pop up with continue or at the bottom is advanced. Click on that selection and you will be able to change all the settings including the plate thickness.
Hi, this amazing tutorial video, clear and easy to follow, I'm using UGS v2.0, I have tried using the Probe Module plugin and I have a little trouble implementing it, can you make a video using UGS v2.0, I really appreciate it, thanks
If you had a piece of wood secured to the work surface, could you use the same probe to set the X and Y zeros by placing the metal vertically against the the edges of the board?
Interesting thought. I am going to build a three axis probe, again, I am going to do it with scrap material I have around the shop. It will not be long.
I've got an X-Carve with a Z-probe. Do you have a video that shows how to ensure that the machine knows the exact thickness of the puck? I had some strange results tonight. Thanks!
As you go through the machine setup it will ask if you are using the probe. If you say yes it will take you to a separate menu where you will key in the information including the thickness of the probe puck. It will then as you to test and then complete the setup.
Paw Paw, in UGS go to Tools, Plugins, Click Probe Manager.... Now you will have a Tab Called Probe Manager. Then you can do this process without having to use Console.
Is there a reason my z axis goes up instead? I have tried both positive and negative values. it goes up either way. Running a demon controller on a NewCarve.

Love all of your videos, but 3.1 mm is 0.122 inches, not 0.125 inches - or 1/8 inch: 3.1mm/25.4mm/inch = 0.122 inches. Not a huge deal because you're not risking crashing your bit into the wasteboard with your setup, but you are still 0.003 inches above your board. Keep making the great, and very useful, videos!
That is why when I put it to 0 it went to .002. Thank you very much for this information. You are 100% correct. I believe that I can live with .003 off.
You're always so informative. I love watching your videos and have made some of your projects for myself. This one is a must!
Thank you so much! That is really awesome to hear.
I love it, Great job explaining every step. You made it look easy.
Glad it was helpful! That's awesome!

Awesome
Thank you so much for the video. Very instructive and CLEAR. Blessings to you
You're very welcome. I'm glad that it helped you.
Thank you! This is exactly what I needed to see.
You’re welcome
Well done Paw Paw´s this is going to my probe collection videos Tks very much!!!
Awesome! Thank you! They do work well.
Very Easy and very cheap ..... Thanks for the video...
Thank you very much.
Great
Thank you very much.
Your circle finder you showed how to make is worth its weight in gold!
Thank you very much. It's a great addition to the shop. I use it more than I ever thought that I would. I wonder how I managed without it.
Great vid
Thank you very much.

I'll look into it. I have not downloaded UGS v2.0.
If you had a piece of wood secured to the work surface, could you use the same probe to set the X and Y zeros by placing the metal vertically against the the edges of the board?
Interesting thought. I am going to build a three axis probe, again, I am going to do it with scrap material I have around the shop. It will not be long.
So the purpose is to make sure and have the bit touching the surface that your cutting and your spot on every time. Correct??
Yes, that is correct. You must tell the machine where it is exactly
Yes, this tell the machine exact where the tip of the bit is located on the z axis
I've got an X-Carve with a Z-probe. Do you have a video that shows how to ensure that the machine knows the exact thickness of the puck? I had some strange results tonight. Thanks!

What version of UGS is that found? I do not see that in version 1.0.9 that I am using.
@@PawPawsWorkShop V2, Nightly Build. I have used it without any issues whatsoever.
I will look at this and may switch. Thank you
would this probe work with an old x-carve? thx
Yes you can use that. Just need to enter correct thickness of the probe
Is there a reason my z axis goes up instead? I have tried both positive and negative values. it goes up either way. Running a demon controller on a NewCarve.
It sound like you have a wire reversed. You have four wires. Switch two of them

de pronto,el ejez sube en vez de bajar
When you wrote the gcode you left put the "-" sign in the wrong place. The "-" will move down .

Why is the video of the screen so blurry and moving so much I can't read what is being done. It does not look like the UGS that I've been using
This is an older version of the UGS
@@PawPawsWorkShop thanks I figured it out, found a James Dean video and got it configured and working, thanks
