Hello everyone,
I have been working with vectric to narrow down the issue and fit is consistently 1.5mm to small on the female part of the inlay.
When I was on the buildbotics controller with configured as a woodworker the following vcarve inlay worked fine.
I upgraded recently my CNC to the journeyman with the Masso controller. Is there a method I could use to verify my calibration is correct?
Recipe used for inlays:
Bits used in the past:
46280 CNC 2D & RU1600 bits
DEEP Vcarve
15 degree bit (46280 )
Clearance bit RU1600 = 1/8
Important settings for inlay projects
→ Use the V-carve function for both parts
→ For the Female inlay component
Start depth 0mm
Flat depth 8mm
Male Parts
Mirror Flip vertical (uncheck create a mirror copy)
Add a vector around the design
select outside vector
Offset vector ( 8mm )
First tool paths
-
Start depth 1.5mm
Flat depth 2mm -
Start depth 4.5
Flat depth 2mm -
For the Male Inlay component
Start depth 7
Flat depth 2mm -
Arrange clear paths in order
-
arrage vcarve paths in order
-
isolate plug (cut it out using the offset vector) USE TABS (inside Left)
Start at 9mm to depth of wood. -
clean up tool paths
7A offset of 10mm
7B .5 mm above work
Previous inlays on the buildbotics controller
Any help is appreciated as I have lost over $500 in materials.
