Leo,

The links to the particular products help found here have a set of images for the main windows and tabs. Each element (e.g. Profile Toolpath icon) is clickable and will send you to the appropriate place in the help file.

Not 100% what I’d like but very close.

Yeah. It’s really unclear what you are looking for. It took me a bit to figure out is was a “slope”. There were also many 1/8-s didn’t add up. If your slope is going to be as you’ve started with the moulding toolpath then you are going to need to create 30 toolpaths. I stopped after 4:   slop.jpg   ...

breaking apart the vectors into smaller areas by selecting them and using the move tool to shift them away from the rest of the drawing Rather than physically moving them away and moving them back how about using “Move to layer” to put them in a temporary layer. Turn the other layers off. Edit them...

As always, the help manual should be your friend.

• Main Aspire help page
• Specific page for Job Setup which discusses Datum setup (centre, lower left, upper right, etc.)

Setting them as radiused end mills would be quite convenient. But I'd probably enter one as a form tool only because, in my experience, the curved portion of the bowl bit is generally not a 1/4 circle. It's more like a 1/4 of an ellipse. The same holds for most round-over bits.

LGM: I didn't forget. I just differently remembered...

What all the convolution (a 3.5 square 33 inches long threw me a bit—a dressed 4x4 post 33 inches long makes more sense) boils down to is: one board will have a mortise cut into it and the other board (the one whose 1st cut is simulated in the picture in the first post) will be a tenon. Ech face of ...

Bob,

Neither vector is closed. There are stray bits. One vector loops back upon itself. See circled parts in images (left prong and right prong).

Three things: you say :virtual centre” do you mean “virtual zero”? if you meant “virtual zero” is your spoilboard that warped the you actually need to use the feature? If your spoilboard is ice and flat the feature is kind of pointless. you say the job size is 17.9. Do you cut all the way out to the...

Short answe: no. Slightly longer answer: graph theory says no. Practical answer: you need to create to half-mooons.

I suspect the image is of something that the original poster wants to replicate not an image of the result of toolpathing. (looks like some concrete or concrete-like object). Fleeto: I can see this being done with the fluting toolpath. Where each whorl is a separate open vector that describes the pa...

Can he not: set the Z0 with the touchplate on the board. Remove the board. Move the Z down via pendant / control pad to negative whatever he figures is fair. Then set that as the Z0. Replace the board. Cut away to his heart's content (making sure VCarve raises his normal clearance plus the amount of...

So, your new material (original material plus inlay) is 0.50" thicker than your original material's thickness ("omt") but you want to treat it as being 0.53" thicker? There's no need to have a negative start depth. If you are using a suitably new version of VCarve that allows creating multiple sheet...

Duplicate post. Nice images found here.

If the file is too large then just images of the settings will do. See my previous posts for what's needed.
