Just a tip from what I do. On the lazy susan I opt for running a tool path with a V-bit around the edge before the relief cut. This ensures that the chamfer is consistent, you don't accidentally tip your palm router causing a divot on the edge and your dust extraction handles most of the debris. Other than that, nice projects.

Not sure if you've tried this with some of your bowl bit projects but I've been running the first cut to "hog out" the material to get it close the exact depth and then doing a second tool path cut out that goes to the final depth and sped way up and with an increased step over to reduce the ridges left by the bowl bit initial time its run.... not sure if that makes any sense but great projects!

I did this project right from the DXF. You might include in your directions that your profile paths are "on" the vector and not outside of them as most projects will cut from the outside on cutouts. I noticed as I was cutting this that the two pieces would not fit together so I ran the toolpath a second time on the vector and it worked out fine, however, I can see someone having a bit of frustration here. Also, you might also include the project dimensions within your directions. I got them off your video. I realize you can make this any size you want, however, if someone is trying to replicate exactly what you demonstrate...
@EigenDesigns Жыл бұрын
Hey Russell, a few people expressed some confusion about cutting "on the line" vs on the outside of the line so I actually updated the DXF file yesterday to increase the opening to 3/4" so people can cut on the outside of the line. I hope this will help simplify things. Also, that's a good idea to include the dimensions in the instructions. It's included in the listing description, but it would also be helpful in the instructions. Thanks for the tips!

My copy that I purchased last week wasn’t updated apparently. I cut inside and outside wasting 2 really nice pieces of walnut, before looking up what the problem was. The engraving is extremely light as well. You can barely see the lower left. My Avid 6060 is trimmed in to .002 across X and Y. The wood was .758”. I set it at .750” so I didn’t hit my spoilboard. It left. .008” all around, so I know the wood was level as well.

Interesting to watch thanks. As a complete novice, I was wondering what is the accuracy one can achieve on a mass production doing this process? Meaning if I set specific sizes with the cnc, how accurate will be let's say the actual internal cut compared to the settings? I like the gap between the dishes and the tray, looks good aesthetically, but what if I want it to be narrower to the very limit? Would you say the dishes will always fit, or some will and some won't?
@Andre-948 Жыл бұрын
Actually I mean something like the tray for the beer glasses. They seem to fit like a gloove. Love it. On a mass scale, is the router able to get always a fine cut or what would you say will be the allowance? thank you
@EigenDesigns Жыл бұрын
It's a good question. The answer will depend on what kind of a CNC you have. My OneFinity operates on ball screws instead of elastic belts so it can make repeated cuts without losing accuracy over time. Any time I have carved something in large quantities I haven't experienced any variation in the final products. I hope this helps answer your question.

Mark, great projects. Thanks for taking the time to show us how to do them. One thing I noticed was that you used Fusion 360 for both the design and the tool path for the Onefinity CNC. I've always used the Vectric Vcarve Pro for design and generating the tool path for my Onefinity CNC. I'm in process of teaching myself Fusion 360 for my 3D printer. The design aspect of Fusion 360 seems far superior, in my opinion only :-), to the Vcarve. I would really appreciate it if you can demonstrate the workflow from design to tool path using the Fusion 360. Thanks and keep up the great work.

Thanks for the support. I agree that Fusion 360 has a lot of capability if you're willing to go through the "learning curve" since its not as user friendly as some of the other software out there.

@EigenDesigns2 жыл бұрын
@@SpwnDragn with a 3/8" bowl bit you could do 0.2" per pass. A trick I have learned is to watch the size of the cuttings and listen to the router as you're making your cut. If the cuttings are very small/fine, lower your RPM. If you hear your router actively struggling to cut the piece at your given feed rate, increase your RPM. The key is to feed that information back on subsequent cuts to find the right balance between those two things.

Down loaded and it came out nice but I have a question. My carve time after downloaded the Gcode the 1st carve was 45 mins and it went in circles. the dish cutout also went in circles not straight movements light your cnc. Yes I downloaded into my oneinfinity. On my 3/4 bowl cutout I notice I had some ridges at the bottom. Usually I use a clean up low step over. Any ideas?
@EigenDesigns Жыл бұрын
Hey Dave, I am not sure which file you're referring to, but perhaps I can offer some suggestions. If you're looking to optimize the tool path for the dish groove you can import the DXF design file and create your own tool paths, rather than using the g-code files directly. I use fusion 360 for my software and often times the "adaptive clearing" will cause the circles that you're talking about so you can choose a contour cut to carve the channel for the dish instead. The easiest way to get rid of the ridges from the 3/4" bowl bit is to use a drill bit sanding attachment and lightly sand the bottom of the bowl. These are pretty cheap on amazon and make quick work of the ridges left behind by the drill bit. I have played around with the reduced step-over on the final pass and find that there are still markings left behind by the bit. If you need more support feel free to reach out to me through Etsy.

Mark, great video. Question, during the first part it references using the 90 degree v carve bit to do the cutouts and the then the 1/4 inch endmill when doing the carving but, that seems to be backwards to me. I'm new to this and want to be sure I setup the bits in the correct toolpath sequence since I have to redo the toolpaths (vectric) after purchasing your files off etsy. Do I use the endmill first then the vcarve or the opposite? If so, I think the video bit references may be backwards or it's just me. Thanks.

I just noticed what you’re talking about and it’s definitely a mixup on my part - great catch. The cutouts should be done with the end mill and the engraving should be done with the 90 degree v carve bit. Also, in general it’s better to do the engraving first before doing the cut out. You don’t have to do it in that order, but it’s a better habit to get into. Hopefully this clears up the confusion.
