Thanks Ben for another glimpse in using the OneFinity. I can see by this I still have a lot to learn before mine gets here. I’m hopeful that hands on use will make things clearer.😊
@@chrystald. very cool. Yes I will be expecting lots of hiccups and curse words since I have never used a CNC before. Have you ever had a CNC before the Onefinity. What software are you using? I have ordered my Onefinity Woodworker but I have not purchased my software yet. I am debating on purchasing the VCarve Pro.
Great video, what is largest(hight) piece of wood that will fit under the spindle? Would love to see a video about some good bits you recommend for beginners from engraving to milling. Cheers
Hi. Nice video. It helps a lot to see this in real time. Can you elaborate on why there was that chip out on the right side? Trying to learn what things to do to get perfect cutouts before my machine arrives. Thanks.
Nice demo. I'm also awaiting my OneFinity. I currently use a different brand cnc. VCarve is great software and this coming from someone who used a $10K professional CAD system till I retired. You should try using 3D tabs (1 check box in the tab area), and smooth your lines (Curve Fit icon) which will smooth the lines which condenses the gcode and allows the cnc to run smoother & faster because there are less points.
Like your video. I have one infinity also, just learning though. I am planning on getting Vcarve Desktop; question, when you choose what machine you use, one infinity is not an option; what do you use?
Hey Ben how long did it take to get yours from order date 6 or close to 8.Trying to plan a trip to Nyc. Its been 4 weeks on 6/15 / 22 thanks if you remember
Another Question: can I use an older version of Aspire instead of purchasing new version; which is over $1000? (Version 9.5 can be purchased for under $60.00 with lifetime license).
Is this program your preferred program to use? I just ordered a Onefinity Woodworker. It will be my first CNC. Do you recommend VCarve Pro for someone just starting out? Thank you.
Awesome work. So I am really considering on purchasing a Onefinity CNC as my very first CNC. One of my current woodworking projects that I do consistently is I make wooden American flags. I like to make each individual stripe with extra definition by using a round over bit on each side. Will a CNC be able to engrave my assembled American flags with the rounded over edges on each stripe or will this be an issue? Thank you
On Onefinity website it says the machine is made to use a Makita router and there is no spindle on their site. What spindle are you using? Is it the same diameter as the Makita router?
Loved the video but I am confused by your use of the Contour Toolpath, is that only in Aspire? I am using V carve pro and can not find it, or are you using the title Contour for the Profile tool path? I am trying to do a project and am running into a number of problems that this "contour toolpath " seems to solve but I am frustrated (Not an unusual circumstance) Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
Your video's are beyond reproach ... so I'll ask you. I'm about to retire and the boss told me to have a plan, so I'm going to fire up my life long hobby of wood working and make some money on the side. I'm ready to order a Onefinity with several of the bells and whistles. Given that I'm a CNC Newb but relatively computer literate, what direction would you suggest I start looking for software? I want to be able to carve stars on wooden flags as well as make plaques for my Boy Scout Troop ... and whatever else come my way. Thanks for all you do!!
Great video I'm patiently waiting on my OneFinity its informative seeing you use yours. Do you not use the Rii Controlpad with the OneFinity? I noticed you use a Logitech controller instead.
@@MyersWoodshop You are not using the prob correctly. the cut out is for the corner of the work material and the person asking about turning the prob over is correct. . The prob is tilted the way you have it.. Turn it over to get the true reading,
Aspire cost as much as the cnc 😳 Hope onefinity comes out with a 25”x25” cnc the one you have is too big (don’t want to obstruct my doors lol 😂)and their small one is too small.
I always love your videos. I just wish you would learn how to line level your audio. One second I can barely hear you talking so I turn up the volume. Then you switch scenes and mic setups and blow me out of the room. Just constructive criticism.
@@MyersWoodshop let me know what you edit with. I might be able to give you a cheat sheet that fixes this. Shouldn’t add much to your editing time and the finished product would be better

Glad it was helpful!
Hello Chrystal. Did you get your Onefinity CNC yet?
@@hvwoodcreations6278 yes I got my machine for about 4 months. I’ve had some hiccups along the way but already selling some pieces.
@@chrystald. very cool. Yes I will be expecting lots of hiccups and curse words since I have never used a CNC before. Have you ever had a CNC before the Onefinity. What software are you using? I have ordered my Onefinity Woodworker but I have not purchased my software yet. I am debating on purchasing the VCarve Pro.
I’ve read on forums there are lots of grounding issues with these spindles. Can you describe what you did to check and/or need to modify?
I made one a quite a few years ago, it was 1/4 inch board and 5 feet long. I really like the overlap cut capability for Vetric VCarve.
nice use of tieling!
Great video, what is largest(hight) piece of wood that will fit under the spindle? Would love to see a video about some good bits you recommend for beginners from engraving to milling. Cheers
depends on the bit used too. 4" will fit
@@MyersWoodshop thanks

it was so tiny of a piece, and poor quality plywood, it happens...

i'll check out 3d tabs.
Always quality content. Thank you Ben
I appreciate that!
do you happen to have a video using carbride create
Thanks Ben, this will be a great first project!
Hope you enjoy it!
What was the ETA to cut out the lettering?
Nice machine - I'm considering a purchase. Thoughts on the machine after 6 months?
Thanks!
best machine I've ever used. maybe 2-3 minutes to cut out.
Like your video. I have one infinity also, just learning though. I am planning on getting Vcarve Desktop; question, when you choose what machine you use, one infinity is not an option; what do you use?

Awesome video! You’ve convinced me to go with OneFinity! How long did the actual cutout take? I’ll be using mine for mainly this purpose.
Nice video,
How would it cut a 1/8” plywood?
Do you think it will reap off the layers or will cut smoothly? Thank you
Yes it will
Great video, what font is that please?
You didn’t ad tabs to the inside do the parts ever pop out and mess it up? When cutting inside parts?
they pop out occasionally, but this is thin and wont matter.
Another Question: can I use an older version of Aspire instead of purchasing new version; which is over $1000? (Version 9.5 can be purchased for under $60.00 with lifetime license).

Great tutorial and cool sign Ben! Love that font - what is it?
I made it personally! It's on my etsy!
On Onefinity website it says the machine is made to use a Makita router and there is no spindle on their site. What spindle are you using? Is it the same diameter as the Makita router?
About to watch our video on installing a CNC spindle. Will probably answer my question.
How often is it necessary to home the machine ? As a CNC newbie I'm not sure what the purpose is if you're also setting the XY position afterwards.
its not necessary at all.
Loved the video but I am confused by your use of the Contour Toolpath, is that only in Aspire? I am using V carve pro and can not find it, or are you using the title Contour for the Profile tool path?
I am trying to do a project and am running into a number of problems that this "contour toolpath " seems to solve but I am frustrated (Not an unusual circumstance) Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.
yeah, contour and profile is the same thing.
Ben, do I have to use a probe or can I do the paper method ? Also when will you do a wasteboard ?
you NEVER have to use a probe. Probe is just easier. Coming soon!

i highly suggest vectric vcarve pro.
It’s astonishing to be that people still choose to buy the X-Carve when you have this machine that’s cheaper and 100 times better.
What are the pros/cons of the spindle vs router?
my other video should help you : th-cam.com/video/cCZWYkiVAXs/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for the video. Does Vectric software sunscription comes with the Onefinity purchase?
nope.
@@MyersWoodshop Can you please share which product of Vectric do you use and how much does it cost you?
I have aspire, but this can be made in vcarve.
Mr. Myers,
Can a Dewalt 611 router be used with this CNC?
Thanks!
no, its a 68mm router and the mount is a 65.
Great video I'm patiently waiting on my OneFinity its informative seeing you use yours. Do you not use the Rii Controlpad with the OneFinity? I noticed you use a Logitech controller instead.
the Rii 'control pad' is NOT a controller, its a keyboard. The jog on the onefinity actually uses a "gamepad' so they are different.
Would Corel Draw be a viable option for use with a Onefinity?
It doesn't have CAM in it.
What speed is the spindle running? 1800 or 18000 ?
Nice videos :)
Thank you
18,000
That turned out awesome! I wonder how long it took you to cut it out in real-time though on your cnc🤔
5 mins or so.
@@MyersWoodshop thanks for the reply ! Looking for similar project wherein i add such cutout mdf pieces into photo frames 😀 on my shapeoko xxl
@@MyersWoodshop WHOA, Sweet!
What font did you use for this sign?
i don't remember. dafont is the place i get them.
can't it cut faster than this for such lightweight material??
Much, but the letters are so thin and delicate you rub the risk of breaking them or they come flying off.
Where did you order your E-stop?
amzn.to/3jUIewb
What app are you using on your phone? Is it an Android only or is it IOS compatible?
no app, just using the ip address in a web browser
@@MyersWoodshop cool deal.
Do you feel that this is good (excellent) CNC router?
excellent, yes!
Do you have to pay for software for the onefinity?
there are many free options available. Carbide create and easel can be used. But remember, you get what you pay for :P
Thank you
Wouldn't your probe be inverted to measure just Z
no
@@MyersWoodshop You are not using the prob correctly. the cut out is for the corner of the work material and the person asking about turning the prob over is correct. . The prob is tilted the way you have it.. Turn it over to get the true reading,

Cnc is only as good as the programming
4th axis capable?
in the future, they say.
what happens when the internet goes down while youre cutting
Absolutely nothing. The onefinity does not require an internet connection ever
I always love your videos. I just wish you would learn how to line level your audio. One second I can barely hear you talking so I turn up the volume. Then you switch scenes and mic setups and blow me out of the room. Just constructive criticism.
yep. i'm not good on the audio side of things.

kinda seeing alot of the same thing. carve out a 3 eagle. seem like its mostly 2d
i just put out a 3d topo map today.
Vectric, not Vetric. Thanks for the vid.
yeah, spelling is not my strong suit.
