Complete V-Carving Walkthrough Start to Finish [Part 2] - Stock Prep & CNC Setup - Fusion 360

In this video series I walk you through the basics of V-Carving from file creation to completed carve! As a practical example we will be creating a tray for your safety glasses.
If you prefer to skip over the modeling portion of the tutorial you can buy the .DXF file here: practicalalchemy.gumroad.com/...
This series is broken into 2 parts:
Part 1 focuses on artwork creation, CAM setup, and toolpath creation in Fusion 360

Awesome video, this is just what i needed! Subscribed
The only thing I didn't see in this series is how to set the depth of cut.

Thanks Sean! Glad it was helpful!! So with V Carving the depth of cut is determined by the width of the path and the angle of the blade. Check out my other V Carve Basics vid, I break it down in depth and illustrate it with some simulations. Cheers!
