But I'm out the cost of a new QC removal tool from Rock Chuck. I've again reviewed both the video and the forum posts and I can see, in my case with my machine anyway, where heat is going to have to be applied in order to break loose the original QC fittings. Now if I could only find the square ended piece that broke off. Thankfully there was no damage to the machine and I was able to replace the shaft and continue on with my project carving. The first thing to happen was that the square ended original QC removing tool broke. After watching the video and reviewing the various posts, I elected to try to remove the original QC without using heat as Ron did in his video. There were a number of individuals that stated that heat, in varying degrees, was necessary to remove the original QC. But I carried that a little further and read EVERY note in this forum, and the CNC Art Guild forum, on the Rock Chuck concerning the removal of the original QC before buying and attempting to replace my QC with the new Rock Chuck. His advertisements and removal video tutorials are outstanding.
He has been personable and very professional. I thought I'd give everyone on this forum the benefit of some of the issues I've had with this new Rock Chuck, and the removal of the original CarveWright QC.įirst of all, Ron does in fact provide a great after market product for our CarveWright machines. Hopefully the Rock Chuck, complete with the appropriate hardware, will arrive sometime this week. Although I can close my garage door and use my other wood machines, the CarveWright, even with a hush house, still sounds pretty bad out on the street.Īnd yes, I will watch Ron's video on how to remove the QC since I've never done this before. Living in a townhouse community, noise is a very big deal. But, and this is where the Rock Chuck really caught my eye, there are two BIG issues, vibration and noise.
Hey al i see your not "al who" on this forum lolKendall, If your going to get a carvewright i would definnitely get the rock chuck to go with it If you watch ron's video of how to remove and replace with the rock chuck you should have no problem unless someone used red loctite to put it on. There is almost no vibration and the cuts are better but the best part to me is it is so much quieter that the qc. I have two carvewrights and have changed both to the rock chuck.
