Software messaging (pop-up's) are okay with me. They have never been a hinderance of my workflow.

Yup, A photo or Drawing of what is intended would definitely be useful.

You may wish to review how the bit is mounted in the collet. I would expect more clearance between the cutting portion of the bit and the collet nut. The shank of the bit should not go past then top of the collet. For reference: Screenshot 2024-03-20 121744.png Well then explain this --- 20240320_1...

... and don't forget that stray stuff could just be previously calculated toolpaths that haven't been recalculated.

I learned here on the forum that recalculating ALL toolpaths could make that go away quickly.

+1 True Indeed!!!

Try this --- Try Select/Highlighting the entire Drawing Area then go into Node Edit Mode In doing the above should bring out the items by attaching little squares (some green and some black) these squares will be attached to stray vectors about the drawing area. You can then delete any of these stra...

Yup! CNC 3D Carvings take time in order to produce a quality product. You could do a 3D carving with a 50% Stepover but the Quality of the modeled Carving would not be Visually Acceptable and it would not take as long as an 8% Stepover Modeled Carving. Also the bigger the Modeled Carving the Expecta...

If I am not mistaken those areas on a rotary axis at some point during rotation would be considered Undercuts so the preview Simulation may not show that area correctly. I could be wrong too that has happenend in more cases than I can remember.

It isn't a full-blown gadget, just a LUA script. I took basic measurements of various acoustic guitar body shapes and set up the LUA script to create the bezier curves using ratios or percentages. This allowed me to experiment with the shapes using more of a mathematical approach. It assumes the pr...

Having been a Furniture Maker for almost 50 years, I have never understood the fascination with dovetails. This was a utilitarian joint in the 18th century which used their existing technology and adhesives and wasn’t made visible except on drawer sides. It just held things together. With the techn...

To be honest, I am not familiar with that type of machine or its controller. I was just pointing out that that is what it seemed like was happening. Maybe someone with the same type of machine will chime in with their input as to a possible cause and/or even point to a specific Post - Processor for ...

Sounds like a Confused Machine Controller --- Stooges or Marx Brothers?

Not Funny Though but it does sound like there may be confusion between the Post Processor created code and how the controller interprets the actions needed.

Thank You AYAH!

Knew I was probably wrong!

When You imported the Model did you check the box that says "Create Both Sides"?
*** I know that this is from V-Carve Pro but this should also be in Aspire (or something to that affect) even after Segmenting Model.

Probably Wrong But .............
