I have bought a set of those too and have only used them once.

Probably because I found the bits for the Dremel Tool and found it more convenient to use.

Now I am going to throw a monkey into the mix.

What if the Circle is a V-Carved Toolpath and the Triangle is an EndMill ToolPath which takes precedence along the common path???

Sanding -- a tedious boring process but you cannot beat the end result! There is a tool (which I am surprised has not been mentioned here) I had never used until I got involved in doing 3D CNC Carvings and that is the Dremel Tool and a set of fine bits for cleaning fine details. They have definitely...

Just a reminder---

There is a gadget you can install that takes a solid line vector and creates a dashed line vector from it.

If you insisted on using Plywood for the Sign then maybe this might be a viable option. Make a rabbeted edge on the sign itself then create a cover to fit over the sign covering the sign ply edge as in the images here.

Short Answer -- One Tool path for each Pocket Depth Long Answer --- You can have different depths on the same layer but a tool path must be created for each varying depth. After all toolpaths have been created you can then MERGE all toolpaths into one toolpath. With a catch -- all previous tool path...

I have the earlier non-pendant Version of the Virtual Zero which is limited to 5 points (four corners and the center) of tool path to be carved. Been using it since March 2016 with very few issues. The only real issue I can complain about is it had destroyed a Brand New Virgin 1/16th end mill on a Z...

Short Answer --- No!

Long Answer --- If you are proficient in modifying .tap files then you could modify the Pocket Toolpath to modify the SAFE Z Height to a satisfactory Z-Height within the pocket.

Could the Document Variables within V-Carve Pro be of use? https://docs.vectric.com/docs/V11.5/VCarvePro/ENU/Help/form/document-variables/index.html Screenshot 2023-04-21 102726.png Screenshot 2023-04-21 102804.png Not sure if this would be of some help but thought of mentioning it in case you may n...

I am a bit perplexed and puzzled as to the issues here on this thread (as some of the other forum members may be too). First Issue ---- The Avalon sign is a tutorial .crv file with its own material board layout (7.5" W by 3.0" H by .25" T) There is really no need to resize it unless you want it of a...
