Hi Bob I have a 660/100w, I purchase a compressor for about $200 works great. ULS has room to work with you make your best deal, like dealing with a used car salesman.

Hi J.R. Have you checked the rating of the heaters in the starter? Example from the name plate Full Running Amps FRA (20.0) X Service Factor SF (1.10) = Service factored Amps (22.0) This should be...
Graig any object can be contoured as long as it is closed. An easy way to check if it is, fill the object. If it does not fill you can join the nodes or use smart fill to create an other object.

Hi Graig, before X3 Corel used streight lines w/many nodes to make a curve, I see you use X3 no problem there. I contour one step to the outside @ .003. You can fine tune this by cutting two circles...
