  1. Looking for advice on Omega software

    The learning curve from Omega 4 to Omega 7 is very small. The layout and tools are identical with the real difference being added functionality.

  17. Gerber Sabre 408 not accurate

    Check the X and Y lead screws. They should be all black, if you see silver they need to be replaced. Also try cutting in the back right of the table vs front left and see if you notice a difference. Front left usually gets the most use and is worn the most, back right is typically less.
