This is the type of clip that is going to get people hurt. Better wear safety glasses for when at least SOME people who try this break the bit and goes flying. Rule of thumb never go more than half the diameter of the bit per pass. Obviously that's different with v bits. Just be safe when doing something dumb like this.
@Knottywoodwork3 ай бұрын
I am not sure what you are trying to say here. This is common practice with compression bits. Can you run at 300IPM? No, that will break the bit obviously. Running slower dependent on material is how you need to do this. More like 40-50 IPM.

I have done 10-15+ sheets and some hardwood projects in between. When you buy them in the 10 pak they are about 3.50$. You cant beat that. 0.35$ per sheet? You have to cut decent plywood though. I had a customer bring their own plywood for one project. About 15 sheets. I broke 3 bits on one sheet. I made him go get better plywood. I think the glue on the stuff he had was different. Much harder or something. Not sure.

I saw this video and decided to give the bits a try. Bought 2 bits for a total of $10 on Amazon. Have only used one of them and did a test cut with some shop jig star knobs cut out of some very old scrap 3/4" plywood. Profile cut full thickness in a single pass - they turned out perfect - cut 16 of them out of 12"x12" piece. I didn't have to use tabs (the sawdust held them in - even thought they were only 2" in diameter - much smaller than the part shown in this video. I followed the guidelines provided for best feeds and speeds, my settings were 18,000 rpm at 55 ipm. Thanks again for helping out the CNC community. This video and info is a game changer for sure!

There is significant deflection, for sure, but it seems like something that could be improved upon.

However, for the time and material savings (using such a 1/8" tool on 3/4" plywood in a single pass), there are going to be some trade-offs. I imagine this could be improved upon though if the deflection is critical enough to affect your project. Still pretty damn cool.

Yeah, I have the same brand (an Avid 5'x10' - aluminum extrusion and rack and pinion drives), as well as an Axiom 8 Pro (which is all steel construction with ball-screw drives). So far, the Avid machine actually seems more rigid; the Avid machine's gantry weighs significantly more and has a much more powerful spindle than the Axiom machine - so, increased inertia, coupled with increased cutting torque may just effectively make it more rigid for most projects, even though there's more flex in the aluminum frame than a steel one. All that to say: it's not going to bounce with an 1/8" tool - so the cut inconsistency is likely due to tool deflection. At 1:50 in, you can clearly see a difference in definition between the top side of the dog holes and the bottom side (where the tool would have deflected the most). Either way, pretty incredible to see a 1/8" tool eat through 3/4" plywood in a single pass.
