I’m a long time vectric user and I’m enjoying Carve co. They both have positives and negatives. One thing I don’t understand about carve co is why you have to offset lines with a relief in order for your bit not to cut into a vector line. In vcarve if you tell it what bit your using and select cut inside a vector it automatically stops half the diameter of the bit away from the selected line. Is there a reason for this? Or is that just something not available in carvco maker vs pro?
Hello Vernon mentioned to me that you might have a video that shows how to do a 3D family name sign with the Tiling process. I have someone wanting me to make a sign that is larger than my CNC, I would appreciate any information how to do that. Thank you for your help. .
Use the bottom cutting diameter. The side wall will obviously have a taper on it using that tool. Or alternatively, you could run a Profile pass around the inner edge to remove the taper and then create the texture toolpath.

Great information!!
If you were to use a 1/4" shank 1/16" tapered ball nose for texture.... how would you set up the offsets??

Then the texture toolpath won't be as closer as expected to the wall and edge text..... however I have learnt a lot from you ,,thanks.....
Great information......i like it..:)
Hey could you redo all of your videos in metric please 😅
Anyway really good tutorials 😎
