As an enthusiast of CNC carving, I've always been intrigued by the prospect of creating intricate three-dimensional designs, but I've never attempted it before. In this video, I dive headfirst into the challenge to see if the Longmill can handle the complexity of 3D carving.
Throughout the video, you'll witness my process from start to finish as I tackle the intricacies of 3D carving. I'll be sharing my thoughts, struggles, and triumphs in real time, providing valuable insights for both beginners and seasoned craftsmen alike. From using vCarve Pro software and design files to optimizing toolpaths and adjusting settings, I'll briefly cover every step of the journey.
But the ultimate question remains: Can the Longmill CNC rise to the occasion and deliver stunning results in three-dimensional carving? Join me on this adventure to find out!

COOL

Thanks for watching! 👀 Do you have a CNC or are you planning to get one 🤔?

I have a Longmill MK2. I am curious why you had any doubt as to whether or not the machine could do it. It is a good machine, stable and pretty strong. Even the Makita router is powerful enough to most, if not all, things you could ask of it.
Just want to understand your thinking here. Also, 👍🏽 thanks for the vid.

Heyllo, thanks for reaching out! That's awesome you've got a Longmill MK2, they are seriously capable machines.
You're right, doubt can creep in sometimes, especially with a new machine.
For me, it was a combination of a few things:
-*Self-doubt:* This project pushed me a bit on what I thought the Longmill could handle. It's always a bit nerve-wracking trying something new!
-*Family & Friends:* Sometimes they might not quite grasp the capabilities of these machines, which can lead to questions.
-*ScienciLabs Reputation:* There's a lot of great info out there, but it can be hard to know for sure if every machine lives up to the hype.
But you're totally right, the Longmill performed like a champ, and the Makita router is a beast! Honestly, your comment is a great reminder to trust the machine's capabilities and push my own.
Thanks for watching the video, and for sparking this interesting conversation!
