Re: Machining a hexagonal head with fourth axis

Another method is to use the moulding toolpath with a Vector that is an "unwrapped" version of the hex head. You can either calculate the geometry, or find a tool that will generate the unwrapped vector.

The example below is in VCarve 11.5

Re: Fun Topic: Artificial Intelligence (AI) Syntax

Be aware that the Large Language Model (LLM) systems are non-deterministic. That means that you can give it the exact same input that you have used before, but get a different result. i.e. that magic words that were used before may yield different results later.

Re: Tool Database Ver. 11.5 to 12

I'm not seeing the issue.
Can you post some screen shots (<Shift><Windows Key><S> to take a screenshot)

What toolpath are you using?

Re: .CRV3D files Can I download Them

Can I use ".CRV3D" files?
No, those are Aspire files and cannot be read by VCarve.

Outdoors: 15lb or 20lb Duna/Signfoam?

Sign makers,

For outdoor applications do you use 15lb or 20lb Duna/Signfoam?
Do you use a backer as well?

The particular sign is 24"x36" and will be bolted onto a post outdoors (garden setting) in the Bay Area of Northern California.

I have tried uploading as an attachment and by dragging and dropping them into the message box.

Rather than drag-and drop click the Add files button on the Attachments tab near the bottom of the screen when you are composing your forum message.
