Re: Zero Plane in V12

Found it Shift click when you create a flat shape component.

Solves problem in Aspire, but what about VCarve?

Re: double sided model thickness

Would help you could provide some phots of settings or preferably the file itself if not a copyright issue.

When using a zero plane if you don't Merge it, it change change your Base Height.

Re: Is there a trick to getting a bowl bit finish pass?

If I understand your question.

In the pocketing toolpath you can control the depth of each pass,

Just make the last one say 0.02.

Re: vector boundary

Photos of what you are trying to do would be helpful.

Typically you only get the error message you referenced when you needed to select a vector before you pressed a given button.

I have no clue why you are getting that error message when you are trying to create a boundary vector.

Re: Considering Vcarve

On a model that simple just create it, a good way to learn the software.

It will cut faster than 3d toolpathing (rough and finish).

The image you show could be done with pocketing and profiling and if you want to get fancier a moulding toolpath.

The training videos will show these too.

Re: text cutting backwards

Upload the file too.

Was it reversed on the screen?

Some of those fonts with the @ in front of them do funky things.

Re: Rotary machining time

My CNC will give me an estimate of the time before I cut. Then it will give me the actual time after I cut it. The 2 times are usually with 30 seconds of each other. These are the best way if you are using the time for estimates for calculating cost of a project. I have to ask the machine for these ...

Re: Rotary machining time

Under toolpath Summary what is your Scale Factor set to?
Untitled.jpg
I don't have a rotary, but would imagine it is different that 2d 2.5 d and 3d times.

Are your other times in sink.

Re: CNC Cut File for 3D Unicorn ASAP Please

Additional details are required.
I assuming you bought the unicorn file.

How big do you want to make this project?

Are you looking for someone to generate the toolpaths for you?

You said VCarve or Aspire, which one do you have?

Double sided or single sided?
