@encarwoodworkingКүн бұрын
I run vectric vcarve pro.
@CrowWood.MetalWorksКүн бұрын
@@encarwoodworking what made you choose that program over the other ones out there out of curiosity
@encarwoodworkingКүн бұрын
@CrowWood.MetalWorks I believe it was based on reviews. Initially when I was shopping around all the programs were Greek to me, since I was a noobie. So I went with what many others have suggested. But based on my usage now, I recommend vectric software to others. I really like that there are numerous how-to vids for the vectric software. Hope this helped just little.

@encarwoodworking2 ай бұрын
Yea it can be difficult. I also get bleeding even after using shellac or lacquer. I really can’t say for sure but I do sometimes do a deeper depth of cut so it allows me to sand more material, which allows me to get most of the bleeding
