Carve a Tapered Hole in Vectric VCarve and Aspire
More down here ↓↓↓ Click SHOW MORE!
In this video, I’ll show you how to carve two different styles of Tapered Holes in Vectric’s VCarve and Aspire software.
I’m going to demonstrate what dimensions you need to know to use the Moulding Toolpath to create a tapered hole, and how to figure out those dimensions. Next, I’ll demonstrate how to create the vectors to establish the boundary vectors and the profile. Then I’ll show you how to calculate the Moulding Toolpath and a Pocket Toolpath to cut the tapered hole through the piece of material. Finally, I’ll show you how to modify those vectors to create a tapered dish/bowl interior, instead of carving all the way through the material.
As usual, if you have any comments or questions about anything I covered in this video, please join me for the Live Q&A, or put ‘em in the comment section below.
On Sunday, January 24th, I’ll be hosting a LIVE Q&A session, where you can ask your questions pertaining to anything I covered in this video. That Q&A starts at 3 pm Eastern time, Noon Pacific time. I hope to see you there!

Hi there, You are teaching me (a complete newbie) a lot, thank you! A question. You say that it will always project out with a closed vector so you then split the circle into two halves. As al alternative why would you not have just left it as a closed vector and simply use the inner circle as the guide rail? Apologies if I am using the wrong terminology - as I said I am still really green at this.

Great video as I always learn a ton of useful information. For a smaller taper at 45deg, couldn’t you just use a 90deg V Bit instead of a ball nose to taper down to the smaller circle? Just a thought. I may be way off here. Thanks for sharing the knowledge!

That is absolutely an option, and it's probably the easiest way to go. But let's say the angle you need is 36 degrees. Unless you have a 72 degree v-bit made, you're stuck. But yes, your point is valid - I probably should have picked a different angle for the demonstration.

I'll discuss it more during the live Q&A, but you could pocket out the bulk of the material, select the bottom diameter vector, and do a Profile toolpath, machining ON the vector. And thinking about things like this is always a good thing. That's how we progress. It's one thing to say, "Do it this way," or "Don't do it this way." It's another thing to figure out why.

Adding draft to a model is not an option in VCarve, and the question I got was specifically about doing this in VCarve Desktop. Yes, you can add draft to a model in Aspire to get the same result. Actually, I can think of about 4 different ways of getting the same result in Aspire, but almost all of them aren't available in VCarve. As for doign this on an outside profile, just don't split the vector and the Moulding toolpath will project to the outside. Boom - done.

HI Mark. Good vid: A couple questions. 1) Using Guides vs. a square. If I knew I needed a 1/2" diagonal line, why not draw a 1/2" square and then a line from one corner to another? Seems like fewer steps then dragging and offsetting 4 guide lines. 2): why not select the inner circle, reverse the direction of the profile vector and make the swept profile rather than cutting apart the outer circle? Thank you.
@MarkLindsayCNC
@MarkLindsayCNC 3 жыл бұрын
Thank you! The reason I used guides in this video was to reinforce their use. I'd had a lot of questions about using guides prior to making this video, so I decided to use them for this demonstration. You absolutely can use a rectangle to get your angle. The reason I didn't use the inner circle was to avoid potential damage to the bit or the machine. By selecting the inner circle and sweeping that profile upward and outward, that means your bit is going to move over to that inner circle, plunge in the full thickness of the material, then try to carve it's way up and out of the trench it just dug in one pass. A good percentage of CNC routers can handle that, but a bigger percentage of home/hobby CNC routers can't. Additionally, depending on the bit you're using, the bit may not have enough cutting length to be able to cut the full thickness in one pass. This is especially true with smaller diameter bits. If you try to cut material that's thicker than the cutting length of the bit, you WILL snap it off. I addressed both of these questions in Live Q&A #75, which followed the video, the day I released it.

Thanks for helping us all out. Curious tho...instead of the trick with the guide lines (which I was unaware that you could create additional guide lines, so thanks for that!), why did you not draw a square with .5 sides and then draw the diagonal? It is less clicks.
@MarkLindsayCNC
@MarkLindsayCNC 3 жыл бұрын
I did that mainly to reinforce the use of guide lines, as I've had a few questions about them as well. I certainly could have drawn a rectangle (and I almost did,) if I knew the diameters of the top and bottom holes. Having one diameter and an angle would have made it a bit more difficult, but not impossible. It's an option, and you could certainly do it that way. There are usually several ways of achieving the same goal, and any way you choose that gives you the result you want is certainly valid.

Great video as always Mark. Interesting that the resulting tool paths (circa. 18:40) are using both normal and climb milling - was this intentional ? can this be avoided (i.e. make it go clock wise or CCW in both halves ? From the second example (i.e. without cut through) I understand that the inner circle is actually not used for anything... Also would I be right to assume that you are not limited to a straight line and you could use the same method to create an ogee style cut without the need for an ogee bit (and probably also not limited to a circle for the guiding path...)?

You mention the molding toolpath always projects outward with closed vectors. Why does the closed vector need to be cut in two places rather than one? One cut vector is an open vector. And yes, as mentioned in reply to another comment, in this case a 45 degree bevel bit does the job efficiently (of course only for 45).

Why for hogging out the circle, did you not select a profile cut and cut inside the profile, rather than pocketing it out. Seems to me your method would take a lot longer. Learned how to do tapers though, so thank you for that.
@MarkLindsayCNC
@MarkLindsayCNC Жыл бұрын
Either way will work, Derek. Just know that using the Moulding Toolpath does NOT create a 3D component that you can attach 3D tabs to. Yes, you can create tabs with your Profile toolpath, but the minute you run that Moulding toolpath to create the taper, the tool is going to cut through those tabs. So if you use a Profile toolpath, make sure you have a way of securing the waste material in the center of your tapered hole. That's why I used the Pocket toolpath - to eliminate that possibility.

Just focus on the Top side of the project in the video; set the diameter of the dish, draw your Vector Boundary, set the Shape Height of the dish, add a Zero Plane, and calculate the toolpaths, machining to the Vector Boundary. Preview and make changes if you need to. Here's a link to the 2-Sided Dish video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/g5p6gbB-rJu9fGQ.html

Yes - to a point. You could easily do this with a combination of a Profile or Pocket toolpath to clear out the center of the hole, then a Chamfer toolpath to create the tapered side.

@MarkLindsayCNC
@MarkLindsayCNC 3 жыл бұрын
Yes, that is an option, Grant. The problem is you're now starting at the bottom and tapering outward and upward. That means for the first steps of the taper, you're machining away the entire thickness of the material at once. Is your machine capable of doing that in something like hard maple? Bit clearance also becomes an issue. What I mean by that is, depending on the tool, there may not be enough cutting length on the tool, or the collet may be in danger of crashing into the material. If the machine and tool is capable of cutting the entire thickness of the material, and there's plenty of clearance, then yes, you could project the toolpath up from the bottom hole.

No worries, Grant. That's one of the hardest parts of doing this as a hobby - thinking ahead to the machining process before you even have the design drawn.

I mean, we can draw anything we want - now cut it in the real world. Sometimes it just doesn't work. Just mounting the piece you want to carve is a challenge at times, and sometimes what we want to do just isn't possible on a home hobby machine. Now, where do I sign up for those big bucks? lol

I do have a question. SInce you are cutting a 45 degree hole shouldn't you use a 45 degree V-bit? Just thinking out loud.
@MarkLindsayCNC
@MarkLindsayCNC Жыл бұрын
You could do that, yes - but suppose you want an 18° taper. The purpose of the video was to show how to carve a tapered hole in VCarve Desktop and Pro at basically any angle. I just used 45° as an example that everyone could relate to.

Could you use a cove bit or a bowl bit guess they are similar bits

I've not tried it, but I don't know why it wouldn't work. Give it a try, but make sure to preview it to see if you get the result you're looking for.

But.....But...Mark...what if your circles are not actually circles and irregular shapes? And therefore you do not have a consistent width of slope all the way around the tapered hole? Been driving myself crazy trying to find a solution to that riddle.

That's where you get into 3D modeling territory, which was outside of the scope of this video. For that, you need to do a 2-rail sweep (Aspire only.)

For a 45 degree, why not use a v bit?

The purpose of the video was to show how to create a taper. The angle is irrelevant. I could have chosen 50° just as easily, and the process would have been the same.

Buonasera mi scusi se scrivo in italiano se scrivo in ita italiano se vuole posso tradurlo. Io avrei bisogno di fare la stessa lavorazione però a forma di cuore mi può dare qualche dritta su come farla, perché ho provato ma non riesco, oppure se ha qualche video dove viene spiegata mi farebbe piacere.

I thought originally the board was 1" thick. Any angle diagonally across a SQUARE is going to be 45°

Instead of using a pocket tool path to remove the hole why not just profile tool path? That way you only have the cut time to cut one single internal outline to remove all that wood instead of hogging it all out.
@MarkLindsayCNC
@MarkLindsayCNC 2 жыл бұрын
Yes, you could use a profile toolpath. You'd need a way to secure it so it doesn't come loose after cutting it out, but that's not too difficult. There are many ways to accomplish the same end result. The purpose of this video was to demonstrate cutting the taper. How you deal with the waste in the center is your choice. Personally, I tend to pocket out the waste (depending on the size of the hole, of course) so I don't have to deal with trying to secure it to the spoilboard somehow.
