For a long time I've been searching for the best method to make deep but detailed v-carved inlays in end-grain cutting blocks and other pieces. I'm still learning but I wish I had found a detailed tutorial that would have saved me a lot of time and waste. So I made one (there is a French version here: • Tuto détaillé incrusta... ).
I've used a lof of schematics and examples to explain start depth, flat depth, bit angles, glueing, etc. I've tried to cover all the bases! Feel free to follow along and do your own v-carved UA-cam button!
The "Start Depth" technique was originally developed by Paul Zank and Damien Durrant: www.vectric.org/video/aspire4-...
I use a Euro Makers Aureux 3X CNC, similar to an X-Carve or a Shapeoko. The software is Vectric VCarve Desktop.

Thank you. I must have watched 100 videos trying to learn the details on how to do the vcarve inlay technique with an explanation of not only how, but why. Absolutely the best video on the subject.
After watching dozens of other videos about vcarve inlay techniques, your 4 minute visuals between 20:38 and 24:38 gave me more information than all the hours of all the other videos put together.
Thank you, thank you.
Exactly my thought! wow so well done!
I still dont get why we have to use start depths at anything other than 0. Why do we have to trick the machine into three passes instead of just cutting the plug at 0mm to 9mm and letting the program generate the passes automatically that it can handle cutting?
@@smulths Because the cut would be too deep for the bit you are using (possibly) and could snap the bit. The question I just asked is because my 1/8" clearance bit only has a pass depth of .0625" I would need multiple passes.
23 minutes in is gold.
After many many videos I always thought you can’t lower the starting depth without taking out to much at one. This explains to do a couple shallower passes first. Totally makes sense. THANK YOU.
Thank you Stephan. Your V-Carve video should be a must view for anyone wanting to understand the “how and why” to doing v-carve inlays. Your dialogue and graphics are so well done. With gratitude!
Thanks for the feedback!
I have studied this concept over and over and watched many, many videos and until now could NOT get my head round it. Everyone has different parameters. Now I understand. This is simply the best yet! Thank you, thank you!
The is THE best inlay video there is! Thank you very much for going top such detail and taking the time to make graphics of it to better understand the different values when cutting.
Thanks from a danish engineer!
Thank you Stephan for your time and dedication to show step by step
Finally a tutorial that explains V-Carve inlays with great detail and in a very understandable way.
Thank you for this. Please keep making this quality content.
Out of hundreds of videos I have searched and watched to learn this process, this is by far the best I have seen for explanation and examples! Thank you for taking the time to make this. I will rewatch this and try to make this work for me.
By far the best video for vcarve inlays on UA-cam! Thank you so much!
I couldn’t have found this video at a better time. I was wanting to make an Inlay end grain cutting board with my shapeoko, but was trying to figure out getting around the massive start depth. Great video, thanks!!
Thank you very much Stephan. Every minute of your video saves me hours of trials and errors. Your video is very descriptve, clear and easy to understand and I can imagine the amount of work, time and experience that you put in it. I subscribed right away. Big thank you from Czech Republic.
THIS is the tutorial I’ve been looking for. Thank you for explaining it so well and in a way that users of other software besides V-Carve can still apply the knowledge. Great work!
This is by far the best and most in depth on this topic, thank you so much
Thank you for putting forth the energy and skill to create this excellent tutorial. The accompanying illustrations made the concepts so much easier to understand. I appreciate your gift.
This is the most informative tutorial iv seen on this technique yet. Your explanations were very informative and easy to follow. I learned a ton! Thank you
Finally. Spent several hours watching this and tweaking my cam to suit my needs. Thank you so much for this. I'm finally able to get great inlays.
Best inlay explanation I have seen. I will be implementing this once my machine arrives. Great job!!!
.One of the best explanations I have seen on this subject. Thank you.
Thank you for this detailed, in depth explanation on "deep" vcarving. Very valuable lesson.
Outstanding. Best instruction for inlays on UA-cam. Subscribed.
Excellent video! Very simple to understand. I wish this video would have been around several years ago when I first started doing vcarve inlays, it would have saved me a lot of trial and error learning. Thanks again for sharing.
Great video! You are a natural teacher. Thanks for taking the time to create this.
Great, easy to understand video. I’m just beginning my inlay quest, and I’ll be referring back to this video a million more times as reference to what I’m doing. Thank you!
This was an excellent explanation of how to make deep inlays. Thank you, I think I'll be rewatching step by step as I do my first few inlays
The absolute Best instructional video on the internet about vcarve inlays.
Excellent video! I was struggling to understand how to increase the depth of my inlays until I found your video.. you explained it perfectly and I was able to follow along and understand what you were doing!
Thank you!
I have seen all the videos on using VCarve on cutting boards. Not one actually addresses the depth problem except yours. I also make videos and this must of taken days to complete. I thank you so much for doing this and finally show how you can do deep inlays in a cutting board. Bravo.
You are a dead set legend. In a single, extremely well produced video, you have got me producing good quality inlays. Something I could not do before. Thank you.
Knowing it helps people having fun and achieve results by not reproducing all the mistakes I went through (and still do) is always a great feeling. Thanks. ;)
I have tried several settings, none were perfect. After watching your video I feel that I understand the reasoning and confidant that I will achieve much better results. Will try it soon on my next inlay. Thank you.
Great video and thanks for making. I have been operating for 4 years and this is the best video I have came across on vcarve inlays. Very good explanation of the plug multi pass trick. It will save me some bits even having a heavy machine. It always made me mad that it did the plug in one pass and I just assumed missing with the values would miss something up.
A long time finding this video but well worth the wait. Fantastic explanation of v-carve inlay process.
Thank you.
That was a great video. As a CNC newbie learning things, learning inlay is important this was the best video on this topic I've ever seen. However, this is also one of the best educational videos I've seen on any topic. I'm a science geek and watch a lot of UA-cam science educators and they could learn a lot from you.
Every CNC router company should have a link to this video on their website. Excellent job, thanks for taking the time to make it.
Absolutely awesome! That is exactly what I was waiting for after spending nights studying a dozen well-meaning Vcarve-Inlay videos! This is the best video dealing with this inlay technique I have found on the net. Thank you!
Thanks for the kind feedback!
Finally. Thanks for this video. I now get it. No one else has made it this clear. Thank you.
Outstanding description of the vcarve inlay. Thanks for video.
Fantastic video and very much appreciated. The level of detail and explanation was incredibly helpful to someone who has not yet done an inlay but will soon. I appreciated how you would demonstrate something and then explain why that wouldn't work and then go back and show how to do it properly. I especially liked the walkthrough on how to make additional paths to avoid breaking bits. Previous videos I'd watched did it all in one go and merely mentioned not going too deep. The only extra tidbit I would have liked to see in this video would be some advice on how to figure out what are appropriate depths of cut for one's own machine. I realize it depends on each setup, but some basic advice on what to consider to calculate what's right for a given setup would be awesome.
Thank you for your fantastic work!
Merci beaucoup.
I was confused about inlay calculations and getting it straight visually in my brain.
NOW, I understand clearly.
I subscribed to your channel.
Excellent, thank you. I had the same issue with the start depth of an 8mm plug and was working on different solutions to avoid stressing my machine. Thankyou for your solution it has saved me a lot of time!
Stephan, Thanks for this video!! I just did an inlay and I couldn't figure out why my bit was plunging all the way to the final depth. As soon as I started watching this, I realized what was happening. I didn't even need to finish watching, but I enjoyed it. Thanks again!
Epic tutorial! Brilliant work, with a highly effective presentation. Vectric themselves could learn from your teaching style. Thank you!
Thanks!
I have watched almost EVERY VCarve inlay video there is.......... You my friend explained it in a way that I understand!!!! The standard 60 degree v bit process is good for simple projects, but the deep carve you explained is the absolute best!!!!! Thank You my friend!!!!. I will post my project after its completion
Thanks for the feedback. Can't wait to see your project!
Wow wow wow 🤯 I’m so incredibly thankful you went through the trouble to post this. I’ve had to watch it a few times to wrap my brain around how it all works, but you did such a good job of explaining so many complicated ideas, and I’m so excited to start making my own crazy wood inlays!
Thank you so much sir! Great job! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thanks for the feedback! I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun creating inlays!
Like everyone else has already said, this is BY FAR the best video I've seen on doing inlays. Great work!
Thanks!
Stephan - greetings from Pennsylvania, USA. Thank you very much for this video. Very informative.
Hands down the best instructional video I've come across, your explanations and diagrams are excellent and to the point, every question I had while watching your video was answered seconds later, easily my new go to tutorial channel, thank you for taking the time to put this video together, I've work in video production and know how much time you must have spend filming and editing this piece, it is very my appreciated. Bravo.
Thanks so much for sharing...for new comers like me, the whole process looks less daunting ...thanks to your very precise illustrations and clear instructions..👍🏼👍🏼
Thank you so much for your video, now I see the LIGHT and have saved the little grey hair I have left!!! Thanks from Norway!
Merci pour ce tuto. Tu as l'air français, de par ton nom, ton accent et ton Aureus que je possède également. Si c'est le c🤗as ça nous fait 2 points en commun 😉. Ta vidéo est très complète, c'est tout ce dont j'avais besoin pour commencer mes premières incrustations. Y'a plus qu'à
Merci beaucoup, the best tutorial that I've seen so far for creating inlays. Good luck tomorrow night (not really).
Finally a clear straight forward tutorial!!!!
Very well done, sir. I went on and watched all your inlay videos. AND I've liked and subscribed !!! 👍
Perfect! Congratulations from south Brazil!!!
Thank you Stephan for a very useful and understandable video. I am now able to do my plug-inlays without problems any more. Keep up the good work you do on your channel!!!
Nice tutorial. This one will get me started with vcarving! Thank you! 🙏
Hi Stephen,
Thank you for a great explanation on doing inlays. You have a super way of explaining something that looks complicated, however it actually looks easy to do when you take your time, like most things...if you rush through the process, well the results are normally negative. I hope todo one tomorrow, not sure of design, but will start off simple and hope it all works out. Thanks again. Keep safe and healthy. Andrew
Yes thinking everything through several time actually saves times in the end. How many time did I have to re-make plugs because I had forgotten to mirror the design...
Great video Stephan. Lots of useful information.
Came back to watch again awesome tutorial
Thanks
Thank you very much for such an in depth tutorial.
Great walkthrough!
Excellent video. I will be using this in the near future with a couple of projects I have in mind. Again Thank you!
Amazing job of explaining the process!
I have done some nice v carve inlays but I had to go through a bit of a learning curve. Especially the "start depth" on the plug. Watched a bunch of tutorials etc. I really like your method to get a deeper inlay with multiple tool paths. This is a my-t-fine video tutorial. Thanks.
I didn't understand what he was doing with the plug cut. Why not set your z zero 2mm or gap wanted above your material? I must be missing something on this
Very good tutorial. Helped me to understand the inlay process much better. Thanks!!
*Great explanations !* Good job
Watched this again. You are definitely one of the best wood cnc UA-cam instructors ever! Your video skills are also second to none. I’ve learned so much from watching your videos. Thank you, thank you, thank you 3 times for your time and the effort you put into each of these videos.
For my machine, when I do clearing toolpaths, I try to minimize the movement of my gantry since it is quite bulky (Legacy Maverick 3x5); for me the gantry moves along the x axis or long length of the table.
Thanks! Indeed it's a good idea to minimize the movement of the heaviest part by changing the Raster Angle!
Great video. The results are just fantastic and the details that you can achieve with your method far outperform other methods I've found. Merci Beaucoup!!
Great vid. Exactly what I was looking for
Stephan. Merci for tutorial. Did my own self training and the same UA-cam sign as test done successfully. I am working in Carveco Maker but in general it works the same way. Super. Thank you so much for great and easy to understand tutorial.
And now I machined my design. It works perfectly so I got good result and UA-cam signed box. Thx again.
Brother, you killed it! the multiple tool path for start depth was an issue I have been like what is going on Aspire!!! Your tutorial is amazing no one else has a better explanation Im ready to try this!!
Thank you!
This is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks so much.
Such a brilliant tutorial
Thank you so much for this video. It has helped me so much. Keep them coming
Outstanding ! you cleared up a ton of that start depth confusion i had
Very good video! I appreciate the time and effort you did. A really good explanation of the inlay process.
Best tutorial ever, Thank you.
Best inlay tutorial for hobbist cnc by far. I am speaking from Italy and i own a heavily modded vcarve xlarge. Thankyou so much Stephen. Of course I instantly subbed to your channel
Thanks!

Thanks, I finally get it ! great explanation
Brilliant video. Really helped me a lot. Super bien fait! Didn't know that CNC, will investigate further. Looking for my first one to do similar things. J'ai hate de decouvrir tous ca. Keep it up!
Excellent video, very clear . Thanks
Thank you very much for the very informative explanation. It is greatly appreciated.
I think it has already been said... but thanks for the best tutorial on this. Spent ages searching and this is by far the tutorial for those with small machines. Thanks
Thanks!
super good. Thank you for the clear tutorial!
Thank you very much! Awesome vid!
Congratulations, great work.
Thank you for this video I had do everything metric but that wasn’t too hard and my project came out very well, my client was very pleased. This is information I can use for ever
Happy it helped you! Yes I grew metric and all the tooling we get here (Europe) is metric. :)
Enjoyed this video
