Cutting out Chamfered edge

Post by cusoak »

I have a board that is going to have a chamfered edge.
I would like to know how to get the whole piece cut out.
Do I do a off set and if so what would the offset be.
I used a 0.5 90 degree v bit that was set to a depth of .1875 cutting into a .5 thick wood.
if there is a video on this just point me to it.
Thanks Jeff

Use your V-bit to "Profile On" the outline vector, then an end mill to cut "Outside" the vector to full depth.
