Re: Finally doing acrylic

Tony, where would I find the proper settings such as the correct depth of cut, correct bit or tool for materials etc. I did manage to begin the cross carving using the post processor you told me. I cut a 3/8 inch acrylic but obviously I did not have the correct settings or tools as there was no deta...

Re: Finally doing acrylic

Thanks for the reply Tony. No, that is not the one I chose. I chose the one suggested in the tutorial. I dont remember which one it was but I know for certain it is not the one you highlighted. I shall make the change and go from there.

Re: Finally doing acrylic

Thanks guys. I bought the model and still can't produce anything. I have bought the Vcarve 8 update, bought the new router clamp, bought $200.00 worth of models today and still cannot figure out what I am doing incorrectly. I watch the tutorials yet. This time I loaded up the Gcode to cut and the bi...

Re: Finally doing acrylic

Very nice. I really would like to make the one with Jesus on the cross. Where did you buy the model for that one? Thanks for sharing.

Your works are really appreciated and admired by me as I continue to try to learn the processes each of you have so skillfully captured by your crafts. It is terribly frustrating for me to not be able...

Request

Hi everyone. I have owned my Shark for some time now. I am really trying to learn how to use it with limited success. The reason for my post this morning is I have a friend who lost her mother last night after a long illness. She has a special photo of her and her mother's hands held together just b...

Re: Birth Plaques

Kruiser, would mind sharing the file with me. I bought my Shark last year and have left it alone for months as I stayed confused. I have decided to try to learn this thing once again.

FYI, I managed to make my first successful practice carving. YES! There is hope for me yet. Thanks to all who share on the forum, yo...
