Thu Jun 18, 2009 1:20 pm New machine "auto" option
I have a design which I had set to be made with the lathe machine, but it no longer works after I downloaded the software update this afternoon. Instead of the lathe, now the machine is set to "auto" and when I try to get a price quote, it tells me that this machine cannot make 3D designs.
Please see our info on the new update and our section on using the revolve feature.

I am having the same issue. It wont select any machine, it has a reason why it cant use any of them. The links you have provided dont seem to help.

I agree, the links didn't seem especially helpful. The instructions for using the "Revolve" setting were exactly what I had been doing, but it was still giving me problems.

Ok, I got it now. There was one part that was causing problems so I changed it to "Comments to Machinist" and now it works.
"Just a short note to applaud this innovative concept! I may even be able to bring some of my long-dreamed about, but never attempted projects into the real world. This is an outstanding service. Incredible! Fantastic!"
