Awesome video. It's super helpful for noobs like me to see the feeds/speeds that you're using. I recently got a Onefinity also and always found that if I pushed my 1/4" DC endmill above 50 IPM (with ~0.1 depth of cut), my machine seemingly struggles. I don't know what the issue is yet but it's good to see that it's possible to safely crank my numbers up
Glad it helped! Yea honestly, I started by guessing at feeds and speeds, and then when something seemed to work well, I took note of it. I haven’t gotten as scientific as calculating the chip load, but maybe I will down the line.
One idea to save you swapping bits on the trivets, just use the v bit to cut the outer profile. It looks like it has the depth you need. If you have a flush trim bit and a router table, you can knock off the little bit that’s left at the bottom. Not worth it if you’re just doing one or two, but if you’re in mass production, it could be a time saver.
Thanks for sharing your expertise. I see you work with a Makita router. I am looking to buy a CnC router machine with the same router. I assume you have to set the speed manually and not through the software. Is that a problem for you? How do you work around it by not setting the speed through the software? Can you please tell us the model of the Makita Router. The links on your Tools List page do not work.
No problem! learning all of this stuff myself so I figure I'd share what little bit I know 😃 Yes, you set the router speed manually on the router and not through the software. It hasn't been an issue for me so far, I usually have it set between 2-3 on the router for most things I cut out. and honestly, that's an area where I could dive a bit deeper to really dial in what router speed I should be at given the feeds and speeds of the CNC machine. This is the router I use (affiliate link) amzn.to/3q2SB97 I've added that link to the video description and will look at why the tool page isn't working - thanks for the heads up!
Love the video. Thanks for posting. I’m only thinking about buying a cnc and was erring on the side of not bothering overall but you’ve given me hope! I noticed however you look to have a decent sized machine. Would a budget entry level cnc machine be able to cut with such clean accuracy? Such as a sainstsmsrt 3018 Thanks
Correct. You can see at 4:05 I have it shimmed with some paper on the upper right corner, and then I run the flattening bit over it. The only force acting on the board is side to side coming from the bit, and the cleats take care of that. Then with the first side flattened, flip it over and repeat minus the paper shims.

Everything is explained very clearly and fluently in the video. Thanks.
I’m glad to hear that - thanks!!
Sooo cool!! Glad I found your channel!!! I’m just getting started with CNC!!! Thanks for the cool vid and content. Very inspiring. ❤ 👍🏽👌
Welcome aboard! They are a blast to figure out and use! hoping to make some more CNC project videos soon - stay tuned!
great controller choice haha

Nice! Coffee tray
Thank you! 😊
Very nice projects. Thank you.
Glad you like them!
What do you use for settings on your 3/4” bowl bit.
On the first trivet, what kind of toolpath are you doing to achieve the ridges? Thanks so much, subbed!

Definitely a great idea in production mode! I just got a router table and am looking for ways to add it into my workflow
Good job
Hi thank you. Subscribed for more and support. From Turkiye.
Thank you, I appreciate it! I’ll have more videos like this soon

Neat beginner projects.
Thanks! Nothing extraordinary but quick-win projects 😎

Which brand of cnc router machine is that in the video ?
This is the Onefinity Woodworker X50
So on your second project here, flattening the slab, you only used the cleats around the edge to hold it down? No other glue/screws/clamps?
Correct. You can see at 4:05 I have it shimmed with some paper on the upper right corner, and then I run the flattening bit over it. The only force acting on the board is side to side coming from the bit, and the cleats take care of that. Then with the first side flattened, flip it over and repeat minus the paper shims.
LOL, just another Five! ))))
Yup!
Why did you use a pattern bit?
I bought a pattern bit by mistake but just wanted to make this video lol instead of returning it and waiting a few more days.
How much are you selling these?
The oval trays and trivet sell well, the other items I don’t have listed yet. If that’s what you’re asking?
Buy a bit zero so you don’t have to do the paper trick
I’ve got a touch probe but haven’t used it yet 😂
