  2. @Walker oh yeah but fd - some people can type 100+ wpm - not me but i still appreciate it even though i can't use it to full potential #cadcam #cardboard aided design

  4. First issue: my connecting tabs were too thin vs the cut dept so are cut through on at least one of the outer edges, note to self: account for cut-through and bulk tabs out a bit next time if this time fails.

    Outer has cut fine, inner now will be the tricky one...

    Bunged a CCTV unit in next to it so I can see whars going on from the 19°C warmth of the study!

    Its #CNCCam (as opposed to #CADCAM ? 🤣)

  6. Been having a pain of a time trying to get etching/pocketing and vcarving to work for me on Linux.

    Downloaded the free trial of Vectric VCarve and it was a doddle to do what I wanted... but then I need to pay for it to get the actual gcode out. (Which is fair enough if course, but that's £330 at least. It's not a bad price for the software IMO, but it's also ... £330...)

    Guess I'll go back to banging my head against the OSS options.

  9. Nice!

    The cut-out edge is close enough to "finish" quality for my needs. Huge difference to the first attempt with a normal 2-flute upcut bit running 200mm/s and 12000rpm: toot.ale.gd/@yvan/112430779482

    The engraving on this was just the closest SVG I had to hand and it needs some cleaning up really.

  11. #chipout achieved!

    Some tweaks, but also a new single flute o-cut type spiral upcut bit. No melted plastic, will see it properly once the engraving run is done.

    This is a 2mm bit, running 9000rpm, and 300mm/s travel. Cutting 1mm extruded acrylic in 0.2mm passes.

  13. My first ever #CNCrouter thing! The engraving part worked pretty well, I'd just say I could refine the vectors a tad. This was done with a little V bit.

    The cutting out of the disc of acrylic was a disaster though. It bunched up on the bit, and ended up "rubbing" through the plastic making a sort of rough frosted cut. This was done with an upcut endmill bit.

    So something to work out there... slower speed? Different sort of bit? Deeper cuts each pass?

  15. Since I haven been particularly active here lately, here are some of today’s pictures of my #DIY #CNC #Guitar build. All the #CNCMachining on the body is done, now just a bunch of sanding, filling, and other cleanup work left. After that: the fretboard which will be quite an adventure with those tiny .56mm bits

  17. A friend gave me a desktop CNC router. It’s small but it’s good to learn basics. My problem was finding a project to make on such a small machine. It dawned on me that a small CNC could cut a compact wallet from the stock around my shop. So, here’s my rendering of a wallet. It was a great CAD exercise for me and now I’m learning the CAM side of the process with something small and practical. I even pre milled the No 4 screw holes. #woodworking #cadcam #cas #cnc
