Thanks again, really useful videos :)
Thank you 🙏
Hi Chris, I really enjoy your videos, very infomative. I'm battling to add text to the curved surface of a spoon handle. Have you tried this? I've finished the model and added the text (subratct 3mm, round). I only get a very faint cut out of the text. I'm using version 7
thank u, quick question i have simple black n white lion image..how can i add detail like u did
Hi Chris. Your videos are the best. You have a knack for explaining things clearly. I'd love to see you do a 3D carving start to finish, using Carbide Create V7 Pro. I was able to get a successful 3D carve using your videos but I'm still fumbling to understand the effect of the various parameters.
I really appreciate. Unfortunately I’ve thrown in the towel on Carbude Create. It’s too hard to keep up with their constant changes for mediocre software. I use Carveco Maker and Maker Plus now.
@@ChrisPowellFSD Understood. I'm using CC because this is just a hobby for me and I'm reluctant to spend a lot of money on it. But then again, I spend a lot more on wine.
Carbide create pro can run of any cnc machine if YES. What is the settings needed. Thanks in advance
Where did you find the image for the marine emblem? I've been trying to make a emblem for a christmas gift but I am having troubles finding a greyscale image that was as fluent and smooth as yours...Thanks

Lover you videos, you've showed me alot of good information. Quick question, is there any way to wrap text in carbide create?
No unfortunately there isn’t.
@@ChrisPowellFSD thank you sir... please keep those videos coming
How do you get those images or how we can generate those images I mean the eagle with the world
Hi I have bought 4 months ago a shapeoko cnc my question is if it will work with the latest iPad from apple instead of a computer thank you
Unfortunately it won’t. You would need a tablet capable of running Windows.
I think it won't work with an iPad because you need a USB connection which iPads don't have. Carbide Create and Motion, however, will run on Windows and Mac OS. I'm using a MacBook Pro.
Hello Chris, I am thinking of buying an XL. Was wondering do I really need the bit setter and the touch probe. I do not see you need it.
I don’t use them. They’re not necessary.
@@ChrisPowellFSD
That is what I thought. I really like your videos Thanks
Can you post a pic of the finished product?
My tool path simulator keeps showing the tool paths above the stock when I try to invert the gray scale image. What am I doing wrong. The image look right on the molding simulator but not on the tool path simulator unless I am doing a inverted mold like carving. Witch is the opposite of what I want to do.
Did you just select the outside box?
Chris Powell after watching a different video of yours i was able to see what I was doing wrong. I wasn’t first setting the depth of the square around the work piece or separately. I was modeling both into one modeling component at the same time. Witched worked for a reverse image 3D carving but not a raised Relief 3D carving, it would always simulate the tool paths above the stock. I thought inverting the image would work but it didn’t. I then tried subtracting instead off adding and the simulated image would just disappear altogether. Thank you for the videos they help out a lot. I just wish I would have watched them before waisting two days trying to figure it out on my own.
Yes, I have the same issue of the simulation stopping at 50%. Your trick of going to design usually get it started again. I have also experienced Create Motion stop or loose communication with the PC. This is an on going problem, which I have requested help from Carbide with not results. It drives me nuts to do a 2 hour carve and Carbide Motion stops, just before it is finished and I have to run the whole program again.
I’m starting to think I just don’t have the super computer necessary to run Carbide Create and launch rockets. It is frustrating, especially when you’re just trying to do simple things.
@@ChrisPowellFSD If you are basing that on the locking of Carbide Create, that is a Carbide Create issue. I have a fast Windows computer, and as I said above, and I am experiencing the same 50% issue. If it were a lack of power on a computer, it would generally slow, slow way down, but generally with the new operating systems on Windows and Apple, it would not stop as I see with Carbide Create.
I really get a lot out of your video and hope whatever technical problems you encounter you continue with your videos. Tnx
I agree with you. Thanks for the support. I’ve recently started using Carveco more and more. Seems much more reliable. I need to look more into cncjs for my g code sender. Should fix some of the issues with Carbide Motion.
This is resurrecting from 2 years ago, however, I’ve had multiple issues with carbide motion no longer responding to the CNC controller. I found that a shielded USB cable fixed my issue. But* that may not be your issue and after 2 years, I hope you’ve found a solution!
Mine locks up at 50 % as well on the finish tool path. I am trying to design and cut an MDF cabinet door with it right now. This should be interesting.
mine did also. When I clicked on show simulation it showed if fully done and then the sidebar went from 50% to 100%. However it did not do it everytime. Save often
Definitely save often haha. It doesn’t seem to effect anything, and jobs still seem to run fine, but it is nice to see the estimated time.
@@ChrisPowellFSD I love my XXL and Carbide Create but they are going to have to up their game and work out all these little bugs.
I have the same issue. I often have to quit out of CC Pro and open the file back up again (after savings, of course).
So I'm on CC Build 520 and trying to get this 3D stuff down. I'm with you up to importing the image as a component, but when I look at my image, it is a flat carve. There is no contour to it. On your USMC Logo, in the show 3D after you import it, the globe is curved and shows depth. Mine is all flat. When you say to put the base height at .45 and that will be the top of the carve, all mine does is raise the whole image to .45 and it does not taper down. I'm obviously missing a step or something. If I carve this according to the Show 3D, it is just going to be a flat image raised up .45".
Are you using Carbide Create Pro?
@@ChrisPowellFSD yes, the trial version.
They have round and square shapes. Maybe you’re not selecting the same one I did.
Where do I select that? I looked for something like that but didn't find it. I see the add, subtract, etc in the drop down menu.
I made the rectangle, but it doesnt come up as a compnent. Excellent video!~
Need to add it as a flat block the thickness of your material. It acts aS as your base material , you carve into it
How do you get the background image centered on the stock?
You should be able to move it wherever you want.
@@ChrisPowellFSD What method did you use to import the image? I do not know how to move a grayscale image around from the Model Import tab.
I think it’s on the design screen. Honestly, 3d work is pretty miserable in carbide create. I use Carveco Maker. I got tired of having to fight with CC to do anything and the constant crashing.
is that your go to bit? 1/16 or will 1/8 work?
A 1/8 ball nose could work for some projects, but something like this has a little too much detail for the scale.
@@ChrisPowellFSD are the tapered preferred?
Tapered bits offer increased rigidity, but can cause issues on deep cuts because the tapered part of the bit will cut into the part you’re making.
i NEED HELP, SO i DID THE EXACT THING YOU DID TO SEE WHAT iM DOING WRONG ON OTHER PROJECTS. i MADE A RECTANGLE AND MADE IT .25 THEN DID THIS SYMBOL AND MY STUFF IS ALWAYS BLURRY
The rendering is blurry? There’s a quality adjustment under the settings tab.
@@ChrisPowellFSD I did change it to high seems to do nothing. Im checking updates and downloading Nvidia, saw a post about some setting in Nvidia. Im trying to get used to this Machine and the program
huh. I always did the opposite. rectangle to represent the uncut board, and the image as a negative, subtract.
Great videos. Unfortunately Carbide has updated their pro and it no longer fits you videos :(
Yea they update a little too often. The general ideas should still translate over. Just some of the buttons may be different.
@@ChrisPowellFSD Thanks for the reply. Problem is us VERY NEW to this watch a vid then the SW is completely different. Wish they would do their own update vids. Even their own site is way out of date :( Keep up the good work :)
I’ll have to work up a new one sometime soon. Hopefully it stays current for a while.
is this carbide create pro 514??
I forget what build I was using. It was the latest one at the time of recording.
You lost me at "I just went ahead and extruded this to 1/4"". The last time you did one of these you selected the border and just made it your stock thickness. THEN you subtracted the whole area like .25, Then you clicked your image and added like .20. Of course none of that worked for me even though it looked good in the simulation. Have you changed your process??
Carbide Create has gone through a lot of new build releases. What one are you on? I believe they’re up to 464 now.
You going to show us how it carved out?
Nope. Make one and tag me in it. Thanks!
Made on awhile ago with fusion 360.
Have watched this vid several times. I guess I'm lost when you say you "extruded to a quarter inch". Also noticed on your base height on the two components, you entered nothing. Guess I'm sorta confused about this whole process. Have had my shapeoko for about 6 months and am ready to do some 3d carving, but the more I get into it, the more confused I become.
Honestly, carbide create is pretty bad software when it comes to 3D. Personally, I use carveco Maker and Maker Plus. It’s a lot more user friendly and doesn’t crash so much.
