OMG..a full 180 day college course in 19 minutes..Now I will have to play this vid on a continuous loop 24/7 to get all the info and details.

I just used contour on some castings where I needed to control how close I got to the workholding in the 5-axis. The absolute edge of the cleaned up surface has a wide open tolerance, but the placement in the workholding meant I couldn't drive the toolpath off the modeled face. So I used contour and a sketched containment boundary to face the area while avoiding the vise jaws by about 0.015".

John, This is great stuff and with improvements in FUSION / HSM ? CAM it really helps iron out the options. This is core NYC CNC !!

the beauty of seeing letters and such in funny orders is that you can read the title as how to pace a fart lmao

That morph cut seems like it would be really aesthetically pleasing if it were done one way rather than two way. I'll have to give it a try sometime.

Nice helpful tips, thank you. Lance & Patrick.

Naah do it like I do with a 12" facemill in one pass. :-)

This was a really great video John! Super useful... Nice work, as always!

Great video, very useful! Thanks!

Fantastic Video!!!

Thank you John. This was super helpful!

Went to ProvenCut and looks like a great resource. I did find one small issue with the page, when navigating via mobile browser, the HTML gets pretty messed up and bounding boxes and tables are a bit of a mess. Changing to desktop version fixes it, so looks to be a mobile only browser formatting issue. Anyway, you'll see a subscription from me shortly! Great idea 👍

Awesome video!

Great video John. Very useful.

Nice job with this video John. Thanks.

Great timing I’ve been struggling with this at the moment

John, I think we all know the best way to face is to take your part over to the belt sander. That is how all the professionals do it.

Thanks i always watch your videos for information

@7:00 if you came in with a 4" shell mill would fusion be smart enough to go around the cylinder sticking above the face?

Aloha John I have a tricky setup problem. I need to make two long t-nut type slides for a bandsaw fixture. My only machine is a Tormach PCNC440 and the part is 23" long. In my mind this means refixturing the material at least three times along the x axis. The stock is only 3/8 thick and finish width is less than 1" . I'm trying to decide if soft jaws (4" Tormach Vise) or fixture plate with something like Mitee Bite parts or even Mitee Bite to tee slots. My Job budget is small as it's for a Non-Profit.

Thanks 👍🏼

I have my part on the edge of my stock which is modeled in a 6” Kurt vise on my Bridgeport mill. I’d like to use milling both ways at multiple depths with a finishing path but have my enter point on all depths at the edge of the stock! I can get the first depth cut to enter where I want but the rest of the depths enter from the other side which it cuts in from the top of the stock not the side! Am I stuck with climb milling to achieve this?

More videos like this, nice explanation, keep cutting :))

Completely outside of my normal experience, so excuse my ignorance in the question, but where "Morph" can blend 2 other styles, does that mean any 2? Specifically, I'm curious about blending Spiral and 3D Adaptive... What'd that end up looking like?

This is a really good content, thank you.

great video

Only 10 ways to face a part!?! That just crazy! I would expect at least 11. /sarc

Great video

Really cool!

Cool! Thank you!

Any tips on avoiding that center sliver in Adaptive? I get it almost always. I've tried "adding" negative radial stock to leave, but no success.

Спасибо) Джон)

Hi~ may I ask you what kind of 3D CAD software you use?

muy bueno nyc cnc

Just use a face mill only time I don't is if I have features to mill around

are you actually running at 10000 rpm..?

So when you used 2D contour isn 't it basically the Same as 2D face with 90°?

nice

is this the HSM CAM or FUSION CAM ?

Whenever I see bare adaptive on finished parts I think the programmer is lazy.

OK. You need to grind those test pieces flat on each side, bond them together and hang it on a wall. I've seen a lot less beautiful pieces passed for art.

You left out pocket

First

nice
