3D for Free - Easel Software Upgrade
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 окт 2022
- I take advantage of Easel's new upgrade to allow for 3D carving at no additional cost. This is my first and only attempt at this, so you can see just how easy it is!
If you would like a custom product and would like to support what I do, please visit my Etsy shop at etsy.me/3DRVM5C
***Update****
The 3D carve feature is included in the same tier as the ability to V carve. Meaning ( as far as I know) you will need Easel Pro to 3D carve

I'm new to CNC carving and this video made it super easy to understand how to do this kind of project. Excellent work and thank you!
I’m so glad it helped you! Thanks for watching!
Yesterday I started with Tinker, CAD first timer today I’m doing cam all of this is very easy. You just have to learn.
I agree
Thanks for the video SJS. I thought I was the only one with a Onefinity machine that uses Easel to generate toolpaths.
Hahah. You said it! Apparently the toolpaths aren’t nearly as optimized as you can get with other programs
I’m impressed with the quality
As am I. This was the first time I tried 3D and it turned out that well !
Under "Cut Style", what was your cut depth, and what was your cut mode, like full cut out or model based or horizontal?
When I import a 3D STL file, Easel goes into Pro mode, which does incur a fee, something like $24/mo
That’s very cheap compared to most of the other programs out there👍🏻
What did they use years ago before online subscription service
Thank you so much. This video helps me a lot. I have one question please. Can I make 3D project with my 3x cnc without rotary machine
Nice video amigo, thank you
Thanks for watching!
Do you have links to the stl files for the air assist parts? Chain, nozzles?
Great video please show how to not cut out the outer square?
Which bit used
I used a 1/4” ball nose. The smaller diameter the ball nose, the more detailed it will be!
this is amazing
It works very well!
When you say "no additional cost" do you mean you are paying the monthly for the pro version?
Yes - In order to use any of the special features in Easel, a subscription is required.
dope vid bruh, appreciate cha
I appreciate the watch
How do you make the size smaller on the .stl file if its bigger than 100mb? Do u shrink it in another software? Thanks
I got lucky and chose a file that was just under the 100mb. There has to be a shrinking program out here
If i want to use a ball nose, I can just set up end mill other tool, set diameter to what ever it measure at the end, I don't half it do i... N then just change step over to 1percent or summit. Is that right guys?
I’m not quite sure- I just set my file up and ran it the way Easel instructed me to do so
kindly rply everyone is saying free easel 3d software but it is only available online and for trial version for a month can you plz tell me where to download computer version or how to reset trial period.
In order to use the extra features in Easel - V carve, bowl bits and 3D, you’ll need to purchase the program
How will you moved down, you will crash your machine that way..?
When do u know when to switch between the flat endmill and the ball endmill bit?
Your cad/cam program will divide the process up for you and create 2 separate tool paths so you know when to change
Can u do a video on 3d carving with easel?
Sure
I know you just used tung oil, but can you tell me the brand and finish? I have some poplar and I want it to look as good as yours 😊
Sure - that was just some Watco brand tung oil from Home Depot. This isn’t 100% tung oil because (apparently) that will take weeks to fully cure, so they cut it with some sort of thinner. It dries quickly and looks beautiful!
How did you create the 3d model? I am looking for a program that will convert 2d to 3d. not sure if theres anything like that out there.
I don’t have software that can create the file, so I just purchased this ready- made file from Etsy I believe
i grew out of easel within a month, it is very limiting software. easel toolpaths are meant for beginners and they are not optimized at all. vectric software has more possibilities and easy interface but its made for vector files that you will be using everywhere anyway. add up those hours you lose to easel's bad toolpaths and calculate your earnings to see how limiting easel is. confusion 360 gets the best 3d toolpaths and everything has a tooltip next to it, 3d adaptive is the most optimised out of all programs i know.
Thank you so much - I definitely need to switch but I’m a creature of habit… lol. I’m also intimidated by the thought of learning a whole new program, but I know I need it. Is it easy to learn?
@@irishful1 thanks! I’ll have to just stop being stubborn
Question if i want to carve a heart without making it 3D. How can i make all the sides rounded over? On the xcarve , thanks
Check out this video and use a round over bit instead of a v carve bit.

Welcome aboard
Thanks for the video! Can you add a third bit if you maybe wanted to use a V bit to sign it ?
And what is plunge rate ? :)
You could definitely use a 3rd toolpath/bit. All you would need to do is set up your 3D tool paths and then a second file with the V bit and start them from the same place (center, lower left) and then run the 3D tool paths, switch bits, zero your z and run the detail pass!
i have a dumb question when you did this carve do you use the touch probe for x y z. Im not sure how to set that all the material is gone for finishing pass to set probe on.
That’s a good question. If you have a spare piece of that same material, OR your project material is larger than your file and won’t get cut, (like with mine. My Poplar was 12” x 12” and my skull was roughly 6” x 8” ) you can probe Z from a spot on the far right (in my circumstance) Your router should return to the same X Y origin after the roughing pass. Let me know if this helps
@@SJSSawdust got it thanks.
How can i make it so. It just cuts out the skull?
Check out the video at at 2:50 mark, I show how you can fully customize your STL file!
Hello. Which post processor is suitable for ArtCam?
I’m sorry but I’m not sure. I use Easel and it’s a one-stop program
That look awesome! I’ll probably stick to Easel and upgrade to Pro. There’s CarveCo as well, but they don’t have a free trial, so I cant mess with it and see if it’s more or less better than Easel.
I’m NEW to the CNC world, so I’m coming across a lot of videos such as yours to see its capabilities. I’m so impressed by what a CNC machine can do. I started small, I have the Masuter Pro but hopefully I’ll upgrade in the near future. So, whenever the machine is done with the roughing portion, do you need to dial the cnc (home) or will it pickup in the same spot once you exchange your tool bit? I’m not there yet, but just curious to know. All my test trials have been one pass (mostly lettering) and straight detail, no roughing yet. Thanks for the feedback and for sharing!
Thanks for watching. CNC’ing is definitely a learning process. For a 2 stage project, you would run your roughing pass ( larger bit) and then run a detail pass (smaller bit or v carve bit). After the roughing tool pass is complete it will return to the start position where you set your x and y zero. Once you’ve changed bits and set your z zero, the detail pass is ran
Check out my other videos, I show all sort of different projects and methods
@@SJSSawdust Hey, thanks again! I appreciate the feedback. I'm gonna have to try an STL file project soon!
@@SJSSawdust For sure! I subscribed brother, so I can keep getting your vids. I appreciate you.
I am a current Carveco Maker user who is looking to switch. There used to be a free 3/mo trial, however I cant find links to it anymore. I am currently evaluating Easel Pro, but honestly I am finding that Easel Pro is a joke compared to Carveco (even the maker edition) when it comes to features. On the plus side for Easel however is that Easel is just stupid easy to use. There's pretty much no learning curve at all. It is , IMO not even close to being worth $25/mo when you can get Carveco for $15. The downside to Carveco for me is that their software is a bit clunky sometimes and I don't like their support at all. 2 times I have contacted their support and both times it turns into a circus where I am expected to jump through hoop after hoop if I want to find a solution. They always want you to upload your files to them before they will help you, which I do not agree with at all. The second time, I sent them a video of a bug in the software and they asked me to upload my file. I replied that the issue occurs with any file, and they got snippy with me and insisted I upload my file. The bug is still there a year later, and I've confirmed on more than one PC that is is in their software, so I'm done with them. The best option price wise may be Vectric vCarve Desktop (also 3D). It may actually have more features than Carveco and license is a one time $350. There is also Carbide Create Pro ($10/mo), but I wasn't too impressed with it. Good luck and welcome to the CNC club where software that is inferior to free software for 3D printing is locked behind $2000 paywalls by greedy companies.
Pro only now.
Yes, thank you - I added an update to the video description
its only free for 30 days with the 3D on Pro . If you want 3D you have to pay for Pro
Oh, I didn’t know that. I bought a year of pro so I could use the v carve feature, which isn’t included with the free.
How long did that carve take?
The roughing pass took just under and hour and the detail pass took just over 3 hours. So about 4 hours total
This looks great! Where do you buy ur stl files? I can’t wait to get home and start this 3D
Thanks! I bought mine from an Etsy shop. Just search “STL CNC” or simply “STL”
May I know what tool bits are used?
Sure. I used a 1/4” end mill to rough out the material and then an 1/8” ball nose for the detail pass ( I believe)
@@SJSSawdust Wow. Thanks for your kind reply.
Were do you get 3d files
3D files are .STL files, so just search the internet for those or go on Etsy and search for them. I paid something like $2 for that skull
easel does 3d carving better than vcarve, ..............Of course its a free upgrade if they want to stay competitive
How did you design the skull for easel?
As far as I know, you can't edit or alter the files in Easel. I purchased my file from Etsy and then imported it into Easel. Once the file is imported, you can do slight alterations to the file ( size, z depth) and then Easel sends the g code
Anyway of using v bits on the free version?
Unfortunately, I don’t think so. For the best results, you need to use a ball nose bit. I think you can use the 3 D function for a month for free (possibly)
nope. only for 30 days is it free
Yea, I found that out recently too. Thanks!
@@SJSSawdust I did figure out a way for FREE. I actually made a video because it was a pain. I hope it helps someone.
ruclips.net/video/qJ-X8Ss1aac/видео.html
Not free anymore unless you subscribe to Pro....
Thanks for the update. I figured that would happen. I purchased Easel Pro a while ago so I use the V carve feature , so I wasn’t sure when the trial 3D feature would run out
You lied it not free you need pro
Sorry about that, I added an update in the description
How do you setup the bit change?
You save the entire file as two separate tool paths (Easel will break it apart for you as “roughing pass” and “detail pass” ) run the rough path, the machine will return to its starting origin, change the bit and run the detail tool path
So I downloaded this from Etsy and tried to do what u do but my finishing pass Is nooo good lol it’s cutting air over the skull 🫤u have any tips of how to get the bit down to the image? Signed real newbie lol
Sounds to me like maybe you didn’t re-zero your “z” axis after you changed your bit. Either use the extra material that isn’t being cut away or grab a piece the exact same thickness and zero off of that. That should work 😀
@@SJSSawdust yes I had did that. I figured out the problem my router on z axis was too high for some reason so I adjusted it to the wasteboard and redid the whole thing and it worked beautifully. Thank you for your help though.
@@meltn2me great to hear it!
Thank you so much. This video helps me a lot. I have one question please. Can I make 3D project with my 3x cnc without rotary machine
I’m not 100% sure about your machine. I carved this skull without a rotary attachment
