Waiting for my Onefinity Journeyman to be delivered. I will wait as you suggested and check this video out again when I set up my machine. Thank you for your great advice!
@@onefinity-trainingtipswithMitz One question I have is how long this 1/8 upcut bit will last cutting these MDF planks. I'm cutting dog holes and threaded-insert holes (about 34 holes per plank). I only got three cut yesterday and I'm cutting at least 8 of these. MDF cuts so easily that I'm thinking this bit will last through all 8 planks. How will I know If I need to change bits?
Be sure you set your bit parameter correctly (feeds/speed/stepdown etc). Running too slow will cause bit to heat up and will dull quicker or break. On MDF, I’d run that bit at 150 ipm feed, 75 ipm plunge, 0.07” stepdown, 0.05” stepover, router set to 3 (17,000 rpm). Bit should be warm to the touch but not hot. I would consider using a mini Jenny to make these cuts though as it will leave a better finish on the top of the material vs an upcut. Bit parameters: 125 ipm feedrate, 65 ipm plunge, 0.09” stepdown, 0.05” stepover. Router set to 3 (17,000 rpm)
@@onefinity-trainingtipswithMitz Thanks. I accepted the default feed rate, which Carvo set to 7mm /sec. If I understand, you're saying I could increase the feed rate to 150mm/sec? My plunge is set to 4mm/sec, and you're suggesting 75mm/sec? I also increased my max jerk per your other video.
No…I was suggesting 150 in per minute feed and 75 in per min plunge. Sorry didn’t realize you were working on metric. So 65mm/sec feed and 32 mm/sec plunge.
Good job Mitz! I'm looking forward to the next one and to what you guys put together. Congrats on the new channel! According to what's been posted I'm under 800 units from delivery. Waiting is tough!! LOL
Thanks Howard...same channel just changed the name. Excited to work with Layne on these videos too. We have a laundry list of what we want to produce... Hang in there, you’ll have your 1F before you know it!
If you go to forum.Onefinity cnc.com and do a search for ‘verified monitors’ you’ll get a list of monitors that have been verified to work with the Onefinity. Best to find one that’s a touch screen. The mount I got on Amazon www.amazon.com/your-orders/pop/ref=ppx_yo_mob_b_pop?_encoding=UTF8&gen=canonical&lineItemId=lpmnnpiusjmwqny&orderId=111-5687406-3067431&packageId=1&returnSummaryId=&returnUnitIndices=&returnUnitMappingId=&shipmentId=DWR7lV7vW
One question. I cut my mdf sacrificial boards to 32.25” long. Was going to just home machine and manually score up on y and then score x across in the bottom and align from there. 1” surface bit will clean up the excess on edges with cutting area being 32.126. Same concept, without having to run a program?
Yes, same concept Chip. Originally was going to show that way too but if you don’t have joypad controller it is extremely difficult to do. If you have the joypad...keep your fingers away from the z control.
Is the spoil board pretty much centered between the two y rails? I'm trying to layout a new table design in SketchUp and want to make sure it comes out correctly. Thanks
@@onefinity-trainingtipswithMitz Thanks, I appreciate that. I don’t get mine until late July and it’s my first venture into the CNC world. I’m trying to design a folding table using some 8020 aluminum extrusion and a plywood torsion box that will pivot from flat to vertical. I’m close to the finished product but I’m just using the rough specs and many visual cues from RUclips. I’m enjoying your videos and learning as I go. Thanks for what you do.
Inside left rail Y foot to cutting area is 2”, inside right rail Y foot to cutting area is 1-7/8”. From front to back: front the front of y rail feet to cutting area is 9/16”.
1-1/2” in from each side and end, which will give you the 4 corner holes then 2 holes in middle of the long dimension 1-1/2” from each side. Then 1 hole between the 2 end holes and 2 center holes in center of width. Total 8 holes
There are five boards that are 5 13/16 wide by 32 1/4 inch long for a total of 29 1/16. Then I added four T-tracks that are three-quarter inches wide which will bring the overall dimensions to 32 1/16 inch. I countersunk the holes in the boards 7/16 of an inch leaving 5/16 of material to hold down the board. The t-tracks I purchased on Amazon ... this one is a good price www.amazon.com/Screws-Double-Universal-Predrilled-Mounting-Woodworking/dp/B07ZC2YHSH I used powerhead screws. 8 per board
Yes. There’s a link in the description of the part 2 video for a pdf of build document. If you want I could send you SVG of the files for the side panels, tops, front and brackets if you use anything but Carveco Maker but you’ll need to define your toolpaths. If you do use Carveco Maker, I can send you the .art files with toolpaths
Forgive me for asking what might be a stupid question- is the actual depth of cut the machine is capable of reduced by the thickness of the spoil board? That is, once you've added the 3/4" spoil board, is the amount of Z travel essentially reduced from 5 1/4" to 4 1/2"? I'm eager to get my Onefinity machine! Thanks so much for the informative videos.
No, the soft limit or travel on z axis is 133mm or roughly 5.23” and the collet on router doesn’t make it to the spoilboard. However the length of your bit will have an impact to the overall cutting height above your spoilboard.
Good video. I just got my Onefinity Woodworker and in the process of making my work table for it. I am debating on purchasing square interlocking foam workshop floor matting to go under my table to absorb some vibrations between the table and the floor. What is your opinion on this?
That depends - are you wanting to prevent vibrations going from your machine into your floor or vibrations coming into your machine from other equipment?
There isn’t any discernible vibration from the machine that I’ve noticed but I’m on a concrete floor. However if I had my machine in a room in the house, I might consider putting in some vibration leveling mounts or pads right after I sound proofed the room. Lol! Noise from a shop vac or the bit cutting through wood can be fairly loud (and can be annoying to neighbors). But I would put an anti fatigue mat in front of the table because you won’t want to stop watching it so it’s thing.
@@onefinity-trainingtipswithMitz thank you. I will be running my cnc in my basement which unfortunately does not have a concrete floor. We have a raised wood floor on dirt. I think it would cause quite a racket on my raised wood floor.
Makes perfect sense, then yes I would put something down to prevent any “chatter” that might occur. I spent twenty years in my first career managing production in the vibration isolation industry - look for a mat in the 50-100 durometer range. Enough hardness to absorb vibration but not too soft to move laterally on you.

I used 5 slats at 5-7/8” wide x 32-3/8” long x 3/4” thk mdf. I wanted 8 holes for each slat in a 2-1-2-1-2 pattern and spaced them evenly down the length of the board. The depth of the counterbored holes are 3/8” dia and 7/16” deep to accommodate the Spax screws used.
Sorry, just seeing this. I used 3/4” MDF although 1” would work too. May be a bit more expensive but you also gain an additional 1/4” so you don’t have to replace as often
Wanted to be sure I was inside cutting area so as not to get any error messages for layout. You can go up to 1/2” wider and longer on the spoilboard itself by making several marks on your table top and lining up to that.
Hey Mitz - Is there a way I can connect with you about this? Sorry just getting my CNC and for the life of me I can't get my file to run. Created in Carbide 3D. Just a simple 32x32.
Where is X0 and Y0 in relation to the left mount. I have not received my machine yet and want to draw out on the surface about where everything should line up at.
Hmm What i did I got a #2 pencil broke it in 1/2 sanded down a the end of it placed that into my collet, used controller had the router make a pencil mark to show boundary, then i cut .75 MDF to fit. I got T tracks to go on it. just no time yet so they not on yet.
Great stuff! A note for anyone that may be as dumb as me, make sure you check the path for any screws. rip brand new 30 degree v bit.
Thank you guys for your videos. I just got my Onefinity off the ground, and your vids have been very useful to me.

did you drill the holes in the spoil board in a specific location
1-1/2” in from each side and end, which will give you the 4 corner holes then 2 holes in middle of the long dimension 1-1/2” from each side. Then 1 hole between the 2 end holes and 2 center holes in center of width. Total 8 holes
