Go to the "Contour" website http://retail.contourdesign.com/?/products/23 and give them a call or email, and ask for the replacement buttons covers. I think they were $2 for a set of 10 pcs.

For those of you that are pushing the smoothstepper, have all the issues been fixed on it? Backlash, and weren't there other issues as well?

Thanks,

I'd be only guessing, so I think the best thing would be for you to post your questions in that thread, that way he'll be able to explain it as he designed.

Screen designer tips and tutorials / Re: Flash screen tutorial

Not sure what browser you're using but after it's done downloading, you can pull it out of the temporary internet files  

If have Internet Explorer, go to: Tools/Internet Options/General Tab/Browsing History/Settings button/View Files Button. That should open up the folder for Temporary Internet files. You'll find it in there. What I do before saving a video to aid in finding it easier (some aren't labelled well), is to open that folder and click on: View/Details, and then list them by "size" and delete all the large video files such as past video downloads, programs, etc. Then refresh the flash video that you want to download and when it's done, refresh the open temporary folder and you'll find the movie as an flv file.

As mentioned, you will need a player to see these. I use this one to play almost everything: http://mpc-hc.sourceforge.net/

It would be really handy if they had these on the FTP site, but I couldn't find them on there.

LazyCam (Beta) / Re: AutoCAD and LazyCam

« on: February 04, 2011, 04:32:27 PM »

These are the steps I did when I used to use LazyCam:

I click "File-Save as" and a dialog box comes up and under "save as type", I save it as Autocad release 11/12 ASCII (dxf).

That should open up perfectly in your lazycam, Let us know how it works out-

Indeed it has, just another reason for me to post even less as not to confuse everyone....

Just so everyone is clear here (Dave ), I was in no way insinuating, implying, suggesting or otherwise that Nicolas had in any way or form either intentionally or unintentionally, either with or without malice aforethought - half inched the old router thingy - IT WAS A JOKE!

Ian

Uh, yeah, I got it, Ian.......    I was in no way aiming anything towards you, just trying to clear the air for those who thought otherwise.

I think you may have taken my post as hostile, and you couldn't have been more wrong, and you obviously do not know me very well

I can only assume they are, as I didn't set any alarms off when walking out of the store
