I am setting up my new laptop and I want to move my tool specs. from the old laptop. I know that I have seen it on the forum but was not able to find it doing a search.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Wayne

Paco has been working on a section in the ShopBot wiki that describes the file and folder structure for the ShopBot install. The info you're looking for is at the bottom of the page.

Feel free to add to it or edit it to make it more complete, and thanks to Paco for helping us all out!

Bill,

I went to the link and read it several times.

I went to my SbParts and could not find anything that even looks like my tol values. I looked in all of the bot files and could not find anything.

Thanks,

Wayne

Bill and Gary,

Thanks for the help. I tried to find it by the link Bill provided and gave up. I finally went in and created a single tool so I could toolpath a project. I went back and started looking again, after you responded and it was there! Maybe I was looking too hard.

Thanks Again,

Wayne

Hey Wayne

Sorry. I thought you were talking about moving over your ShopBot tool specs like the units values and prox switch offsets...didn't realize you were looking for the Part Wizard tool database.

If one of you guys would add that info to that page it will make it easier for others to find it in the future.
