@PawPawsWorkShop 3 жыл бұрын
It’s mostly trial and error. Feed rate is the most critical. To fast and you will break bits and cause the machine to chatter. The depth per pass should not exceed 1/2 the diameter of the bit or less. The plunge rate will vary with the hardness of the wood. If you have the ramping feature use it. It helps greatly.

Hello Sir Great video on exactly what i was looking for and to let you know I've been doing this for 4 whole days with Fox Alien 4040Xe. So what I need to ask is how do you know when bit changes are ready. Does the machine know when its time or the program finish and you change and start the next run. thanks for any help you may provide me
@PawPawsWorkShop 10 ай бұрын
What software are you using? If easel and you are doing two stage carving then you most likely do the roughing pass first. The program will finish and stop. You then change the bit, z the machine at the same exact place that you z’ed the first time for the roughing pass and select finishing pass. That will start the next program and run.

This was just a premium pine board. As far as cost, you need to determine the cost of materials and your time. These projects take a long time to produce jus like the 3D carving. It hard to determine a cost when you add machine time. Try and get an idea of what the market will bear in your area and then determine if it is worth it.

Nice work there A New follower here.. I am new to this and I don’t use the Easel to send the info to my CNC therefore it will be good to know what files can we export from your design and how.. I assume there will be only two Gcode files with one having a switch of bits but I really need to know what the CNC will do on the bit change since this was not captured well in the video. Any assistance will be appreciated with which of the 3 files showing you sent to the machine.
@PawPawsWorkShop 2 жыл бұрын
You send all three files to the machine. If you are not using easel then tow stage carving is nothing but two separate toolpaths. The third toolpath is the cutout
