along with the parameters entered to achieve the texture and the tool used. Also some examples from the Texture Gadget.

Here is a very simple sign I made on my first attempt at using texturing. I used a 1/8" ball nose bit at a feed rate of 2.5"/sec and an RPM of 12000.

Almost forgot:

max cut depth is 0.1"
max cut length is 1.5"
max overlap % is 20
step over = 0.118"
angle = 0

Nice looking texture. Thanks for the details.

Did you do an offset around the text? It looks like it goes right up to the text.

My apologies - yes, I used an offset of 0.125" which I believe applies to all boundaries for the textured tool path.
