Order of machining

Post by bristolsteamer »

When producing a name plate for a loco I used the profile for the letters first and removed the waste with a pocket. Would it be better the other way round, or is there no difference?

If you could post a sample VCarve Pro file (or e-mail one to support@vectric.com)
that includes the toolpaths, we can take a look and let you know what the best
approach would be.
