  • This Vectric design software video tutorial is for you if you are an absolutely brand new CNC router beginner who is brand stinking new to Vectric Vcarve Pro, Vcarve Desktop, Cut2D Pro, Cut2d Desktop and Aspire.
    This Vectric video tutorial will get you started designing your CNC router projects. You will learn about rectangles, circles, lines, trim and cut, and how to design text on your CNC projects.
    If you are new and ready to dive into Vcarve toolpaths or Aspire 3d modeling, please do not dive in until you understand the basics of designing your CNC woodworking projects. Without the foundations of design, you will probably experience errors in your CNC router carvings and not understand what is happening

    I'm new to VCarve. This is a great tutorial! I'm familiar with math and the concepts of Vectors, and how CNC requires vector based code to operate. The software is difficult to learn because their tutorial SHOW but do not EXPLAIN. You bridged this gap. Thank You!

    I watched your presentation and have gained more insight as to what some of my issues have been...I have made several name plates with brass and walnut backings...it wore me out...now I do believe I see some of the mistakes I have made, and now I will watch the toolpath video.
    Thank you for making a very useful video and thanks to Joe for being the student.

    Garrett is correct when he says always measure thickness of material with a caliper. I would add one lesson learned for us beginners. MAKE SURE YOUR MATERIAL IS FLAT. If not when you measure your Z will be correct but during operation it may not cut all the way through. Ask me how I know. Recently took me a whole day to figure it out. The same objects I had been cutting out plywood out of one sheet of plywood wouldn’t cut through another sheet of plywood. Plywood still measured at .5” and re-zeroed a dozen times. Turns out the second sheet of plywood was bowed down. Sheet was so large the clamps didn’t affect parts in the center. I had to readjust cutting depth to get it to cut through. Hope this helps!

      Dudley, truer words have never been spoken. Sometimes just the smallest bow in the wood can mess up your whole dang day.

    When I saw the title, I figured that I'd know pretty much all that you had to teach in the video. But I still watched as a review. That being said, I still picked up on a couple of things. Like the Control Left to Right, and the Control Right to Left..... are not identical functions. I had run into that, but didn't put 2 and 2 together. Now I know why it didn't do what I wanted, simply because I was "selecting" from the wrong direction. Interesting, because it was a bit picky selecting things for a reason. Now I know. Now If I could just find the video that explains the "smoothing" function, because right now, that is driving me batty. For the Aspire version at $2,000.00, it is proving to be a very powerful program. As it should. Good basic video, for the absolute beginner, but still good for those that have more experience in (old) CAD programs.

    • @IDCWoodcraft

It's a wonderful thing for the student and the the teacher.
    I'm a long retired engineer in the automotive field and now that I have seen what can be done through your CNC router videos, I am anxious to begin the process of doing something in this hobby.

    Thanks Garrett, I have learned more in the last hour and a half, than all the previous hours I have spent watching other tutorials. I grasped the knowledge you were teaching, but the best part is I
    remember what I learned. I'm hooked and subscribed. Regards, Fred

    I went to this site while looking for a table top CNC for my friend who makes wood signs using a set of metal templates. He's complaning about them sliping and ruining the sign. I've telling him he should consider a small CNC. I came across you doing the "VCARVE For Beginners. This is just the kind of thing my friend does. But he has never done any CAD work. I've been doing 3D CAD work since 1998. All plywood machining for speaker cabinets used in the entertainment industry. I used Vectorworks since 2000. In 2002 the company I was working for got a BIG Shota machine and I did all the programing for 7 years. Retired in 2010. I have always wanted to do signs with special fonts and graphics. I look forward to watching your other videos on CNC carving.

    • @IDCWoodcraft

    • @IDCWoodcraft
      @IDCWoodcraft  ปีที่แล้ว

      Cjtoledor, I'm glad you liked the video my friend. The best part was when Tony finally had those "aha" moments in his learning. Those are the best parts of CNC, when you finally figure it out and it just works!

    You've done a great job explaining this in simple layman's terms without all the intellectual technical terms. You made this simple to understand. And I also appreciate the humorous moments too... even though you probably didn't mean to be funny, but the two of you made me laugh a few times. Thanks again!...😊

    makes a lot of difference for me. thanks garrett 👍

    • @IDCWoodcraft
      @IDCWoodcraft  ปีที่แล้ว

      Doug, that was a cool moment wasn't it! The best part of teaching is when that happens and finally someone just gets it. Keep working hard my friend, you will have that moment too.

    Thank you very very much. Im one of the old dogs down in south africa and at last i found a place where i can learn. Especially thanks to Joe i think he is the key to the success of this program. Normally presenters assume that people know stuff because its so second nature to them. I think Joe represents millions of us that gets lost in the first couple of minutes of a tutorial.Yet again thank you very much you are really a gifted tutor
