Rich Blenkinsopp commented, Indeed Elina, your response was inspirational. 😀 Thanks.

Rich Blenkinsopp commented, This does appear to be it. Inner Diameter (d) is the flat bit, which has a diameter of 0.25". This seems to render correctly. Hopefully it machines correctly too (don't see why it wouldn't).

Rich Blenkinsopp commented, Now that I think about it, maybe inner diameter (d) is the flat bit - which would also be 0.25". I'll try that next time I'm on my laptop.

Rich Blenkinsopp commented, Thanks for responding Elina. I don't know what 'd' (inner diameter) refers to (maybe the shaft diameter?), but 'R' I believe is correct at .25". The bit has a flat bottom and rounded edges. The rad...

Rich Blenkinsopp created a post, Bowl and Tray bit doesn't render correctly in simulation
I have a SpeTool Bowl and Tray bit that is included in the SpeTool tool spec download for Carveco Maker. But it doesn't render correctly when doing a simulation - it doesn't show the rounded botto...

Rich Blenkinsopp created a post, What Bit?
I broke my first bit yesterday trying to do a profile cut. It was a weird one, and I think what happened was that the bit was pulled down into the workpiece, possibly due to bad feeds and speeds or...

Rich Blenkinsopp commented, Hey Mike, I'm not saying you're arrogant, I'm saying the developers attitude is. Sorry... Just having a dialog, and didn't mean to offend you - I appreciate your responses.

Rich Blenkinsopp commented, What you say about overlaps and broken bits makes sense. However, there has to be a threshold that it should be able to smooth out and avoid it. Maybe it sets a conservative value by default, and y...

Rich Blenkinsopp commented, I managed to fix the problem by increasing the tolerance in Vector Doctor until it showed me errors, and I was eventually able to fix them all and get a successful tool path. I'm new to Carveco, so...

Rich Blenkinsopp created a post, Resolving (apparently) non-existent issues
I'm brand new to Carveco (and CNC), and just trying it out. I have a complex shape which was originally made from a complex font. I've had multiple intersection errors and have identified them with...
