    Quick tip, when selecting the plane for your sketch choose the X/Y plane at the beginning (so the blue arrow point to the "blue sky")
    Then you dont have to redefine the XYY directions of your stock :) Thank you for sharing :)

  • @sonofsun4
    @sonofsun4 4 роки тому +1

    Hi. I do not understand, why after selecting your axes, while z is pointing up, the x arrow points left(it said x, not -x..... assuming it is +X) and y arrow points down towards the operator (it said Y, not -y...which assumes +y). Normally, in Cartesian coordinate system x+ goes to the right and y+ goes away from operator.....search Internet for Cartesian coordinate system, there it is clearly explained.....So this arrow orientation is confusing and in my opinion wrong! Please explain!

    Hi there, I meant to ask if you can do a tutorial video of profile cutting some letters of the alphabet from some cheap 3mm plywood. This will then teach us how to use a different method of CNC by profile cutting with tabs so the inside part doesn't move. I would love to learn that from you.

    • @WillysGarageNorway
      @WillysGarageNorway  6 років тому +1

      Ciaran Whelan Hi, that sound like a nice project. I would also like to learn a bit more about tabs. Thanks for the tip. I will try to make the video soon ;)

    • @CiaranWhelan
      @CiaranWhelan 6 років тому +1

      That would be awesome. I have had a bit of a play around with the tabs and these seem very easy. I love that you can make maybe 3 passes of 1mm, and the last pass can be the tabs at 1mm thick, and 3mm wide. It gives you options to space the tabs etc. But I have not really done more than that nor have I done any profile cutting of Ply. I think if I have that video as my starting point to learning more about my CNC, then I can cut some letters out of MDF or Ply for my girls to paint up and have fun with them.
      Have you seen how expensive letters are from craft shops? My goodness, maybe a 6mm piece of MDF could make so many numbers and letters etc.
      I look forward to that video for sure, as it will actually be something that I will like to try. And thanks again for these awesome videos.

  • @curryandapint
    @curryandapint 5 років тому +2

    Great video and thanks a lot. I'm having one problem though. How do you align the starting point in the tool path with the machine? I create the origin in 'Stock box point' to the top left front corner, select the same spot on my CNC software (Grglcontrol Candle) and the tool always does a little 'walk' before starting the job.
    (if interested read below)
    I can 'work around it by milling some polystyrene to see where the stock should go but I'd rather understand how to align the starting point with the toolpath and the stock. I've got a small 3018 'Woodpecker' machine btw.

    • @WillysGarageNorway
      @WillysGarageNorway  5 років тому

      If you have set your origin (zero-point) in fusion like you mentioned, it should be where your machine starts the toolpath. But if you have set some kind of zero-probe option in candle(I am not familiar to that program) there could be a pre determend offsett from your set zero point (origin point) I would check over the preferences in candle software and make sure there are no offset sett to any of the axis. Let me know how it goes👍

    On a side note, I tried using this procedure on several 6 mmm holes with a 3 mm countersink. After about a dozen attempts I was successful. I initially tried doing the 6mm hole and the 3mm countersink for all the holes in a single tool path but I ran into issues. I broke it up into 2 separate tool paths (1 for the 6mm holes, and the second for the 3mm countersink) it worked perfect.

      Then you can make a new tool, flatt end, v bit, ball nose and input your tools info. Good luck :)

    when I do this in fusion 360 when I extrude one part of the sketch the other gets deleted(im left with with either a rectangle with rounded corners or a rectangle with a hole in it with rounded corners) and it dosent matter which I select first. Can anyone tell me why this is?

      Hi, it doesn't get deleted but it gets invisible. When you extrude one part of a sketch, the rest gets deselected in the drop down menu on the left hand side, where you have bodies, sketches and components. Drop down the sketches menu and make the sketch you are working on visible and then, voila, it's back 😁👍😉

    Great video!! In multiple depths, why do you select 0.5 mm as the maximum stepdown ? couldn´t you stepdown up to 4mm having an 8mm diameter tool?

    • @WillysGarageNorway
      @WillysGarageNorway  4 роки тому +1

      Hi and thanks for watching :)
      The maximum stepdown I adjust under multiple passes is how much the tool should go down into the stock on the z axis on every pass.
      This means that for every round the tool makes on the toolpath it plunges 0.5mm down.
      This all depends on how strong your machine is, how fast it goes and what material you use. It does not have anything to do with the tool diameter
