I've been using a Dremel with a sandpaper wheel to knock down the sharp corners on the male to accommodate for the bit rise on the female pocket, works good
Thank you for your great work and sharing. Will you write your preferred setting in the comment. I use metric, and have to convert to mm. Maybe add a screendump of your toolpath😊
I'm using .120 surface and .200 glue gaps, if that sounds excessive check out the part 1 video linked in the description for why... The bit is also linked in the description. 🙂
what I do in the corners is make the radius same as my bit at .25 deep. So when it pockets the corner the bit can stay at full depth. You cannot get 90 degree sharp corners but it's hardly noticeable and the inlays are flawless.
I change all sharply angled corners to a radius that the TBN can do, though it isn't always full depth at the end of a very fine detail. I'll take another look at files as I go and keep tweaking to make them more efficient on the cnc.. 👍
@@petebuehn7789 For the majority of it, yes. I haven't been doing these inlays that long so it's not a long track record, but once I started doing finer detail I believe it's the only way to go as you need the narrow angle.
The new toolpath that they added does not allow for tapered ballnose bits to be entered, so yes you enter it as a v-bit and that's why the settings I'm using look odd, it's to compensate for the bit that is shaped differently than the program thinks.
I'm sorry you have that issue with the video, as I watch it back the volume is a little low but I can still make it fairly loud on both my pc and my phone. Thanks for watching despite the sound issue! 🙂
I don't see any way to attach an image to a reply, but as soon as I have time will be putting together a detailed build on that butterfly board and will be sure to show that info in VCarve 12.
@@LoneOakWoodworks Looking forward to that video! Christmas is around the corner and I'm getting ready to start making some endgrain boards for the family. do you have any issues with the SPE brand? I know the bits are relatively cheap so I have steered clear of them.
@@vendeda191 For something like this where the v-bit does very little actual cutting work or regular light use haven't had any issues with SPE. If I was producing something in quantity and really needing a bit to just keep working they might be ok too, but in that case I would invest more in it.

Great work, Chapeau!

Thanks for sharing all the information. Curious if you have always used TBN as your tooling?

beautiful! So, do you enter the tapered ball nose as a Vbit in Vectric?....sorry, if explained already and I missed it 😬

Beautiful work1 Sadly I cannot hear you even with my volume at 75. Pleas find a better mic. Otherwise your work is impressive.
Thank you.

Can you share a screenshot of your tool path settings. I’m very confused using the now vcarve 12 settings.
Thanks!!!

@@LoneOakWoodworks thank you so very much.
