    That is a good looking cut Erick! Nice to hear you on the channel. What foam were you cutting there and how were you clamping/securing the foam to the table? I typically use XPS because it is stiff enough to clamp with a toe clamps. Would be nice to be able to cut more open cell foams like the one in this video.

    Thank you. Currently machining foam inserts for a knife display case and am running into the messy cut edges. Tried all kinds of different bits.
    Edit: I have the same kind of bit except it’s an upcut, and it still works great.

    The difference is that the first one moved counterclockwise and against the cutting edge, and now it moves clockwise in favor of the cutting edge...it's something that many people don't realize. They realize or ignore. That's why the programs have those options...the movement must always be in accordance with the cutting edge. Anything you cut now will be better.

      @@pablomatteoda5186 Perdon, pero no tengo mucha experiencia con un CNC, mejor dicho "nula" la compre para simplificar mi trabajo me dedico a Clices ( sellos industriales de gran tamaño ) pero las pocas pruebas que hice no quedaba satisfecho con las herramientas que tenia, no se si eso era el motivo o la falta de dedicacion para poder llevar a cabo un mejor trabajo, soy de Argentina y estamos muy limitados al no poder comprar lo que querramos, por cuestiones de idioma, economia e importacion, sigo grabando con un Router a mano, primeramente dibujando el material, cortandolo con un cutter y luego le paso el Router, esto no te va ayudar, ya que a la vista no queda bien, yo solo necesito que la superficie sea prolija, es lo que va a imprimir, el resto no interesa, lo que vi en este video y algunos datos de gente mas idónea es que el sentido de rotacion + el avance es el que le dan un buen acabado, todavia no pude probar esto ultimo, pero creo que esta seria mi ultima esperanza, si no me veo a vender el CNC.

    logical. elastic materials (or aggresive milling) don't like up or side forces. they just give.

      @alejandroperez5368 ปีที่แล้ว

      What's the difference between up or down? When you're cutting the exterior of a shape, you'll have to cut through, so the force will be down.
