CNC woodworking ? That’s not wood working . Next

[@MandSWoodworks]

Robert, Thank you so much for this deeply thought provoking comment. I had absolutely no idea that I had been living a heinous lie, in that I thought what I do on this channel could ever be considered Woodworking, until you came into my life and set me straight! I would have never imagined that one comment, from an authority on the subject such as you, could EVER make me rethink how I am living my life! Your opinion has crushed my soul into a million tiny pieces to the point where I am considering selling all of my saws and equipment. In fact, I have suddenly lost the will to live! Sadly, because of how dark my life is now, I now see my future as being nothing but a KZbin troll and lurking the comment section of videos with subjects that I know nothing about, and will never have the ability to do myself and make useless comments full of animus and distain, just to make myself feel better. On second thought... I think I'll just leave that to you. Thank you for watching! I need the Ad revenue! Next!

@@MandSWoodworks What a turd! I just discovered your channel after stumbling upon another inlay video. I just started my cnc journey less than a week ago and I'm learning a ton. This whole inlay process is blowing my mind. I think it will become my new obsession. The piece in this video is freaking awesome. Fantastic WOODWORKING and craftsmanship. The video is great too. Detailed explanations, good volume, video angles and zooms are right on. You got a new sub and like. Looking forward to digging through your channel. Great work and great content, sir! Keep doing what you're doing.

[@chriss79]

So do you think ppl who use a lathe to turn wood aren't woodworkers either? What an ignorant comment.

[@paulatreides6779]

What a shallow comment

[@Donkor640]

I really like your style of instruction. Very concise and detailed without being too complicated.

[@oseanmc]

Just stunning craftsmanship. I've had my CNC for about a year now and made some great things but have not attempted wood inlays yet. You're describing your process and failures is inspiring and I need to just go for it. And, no shame in being a "KZbinr", sharing your tips is helping others to create. Thank you.

[@vauths8204]

"I dont think im the best but im workin on it" Way to stay humble my brother. Thats an amazing piece and i hope to someday be as good as you

[@brentovercash9018]

Hey! Great video and really enjoyed your laid-back style and information! I make similar boards and also use VCarve Pro. If you're like me, you've probably landed on a "standard" carve depth, etc. and, if so, there's a way to trick VCarve into carving the male plugs in multiple passes instead of plunging all the way to your final Start Depth (SD) and potentially breaking bit tips as you mentioned. I go a bit deeper with my inlays so if you wanted to take three passes to get to a final carve depth of 0.345", you can run your first toolpath at a SD of 0.295" and a FD of 0.05". Then save that toolpath as your final depth toolpath (which would be your #3 toolpath). Create another toolpath with a SD of 0.2" and the same FD of 0.05" - this is your #2 toolpath. Then create your #1 toolpath with a SD of 0.075" and a FD of 0.05" (your FD stays the same throughout). Then manually reorder your toolpaths to group your clearance bits/paths in order from 1, 2, 3. Now... this sounds like a lot of work but in reality it only takes a couple of extra minutes and you minimize the chance of blowing a bit by down a deep plunge. And you can ramp up your ipm rate...!

[@MandSWoodworks]

Thank you for the info! I'm gonna give that a try! Thank you for watching!

[@calebsanz9826]

This is how i do mine as well. Its a great tip.

[@RetroBeatsUK]

hey, your a great teacher, the words you pass on from your lessons of failure and success make you a master craftsman. own it dude your a master at your craft an you have left a legacy.

[@rwilliamjohnson73]

I have been a hobby woodworker for decades and just purchased a CNC router. Thank you for sharing your experience, resources, and settings!!!! I have watched everything you have posted and appreciate your humor and craftsmanship!

[@johnfogg7858]

HOLY CRAP!!! That is the most detailed cutting board I have ever seen! You may not think that you are a master, but you are overly humble! Also, your video presentation style is SPOT ON! No goofy annoying background music and the work goes on with no pauses as you narrate. This is one of the BEST KZbin videos that I've ever watched - both in terms of the workmanship of the project and the presentation of the video. I'm too late to the CNC game and I will never even attempt anything that complex.... but now that I see what can be done, I am excited to try something somewhat simpler. THANK YOU!!

[@bumpersmith]

Never had an interest in cnc's in my woodworking but after seeing this and the amount of time that you showed in each design element, I can see another aspect of woodworking. Thanks for showing each step.

Is there an award for best new youtuber of 2023? You have my vote.

[@ruizd14]

wow are you kidding me? you are a master at this craft. these are the best inlay cutting boards I have ever seen on you tube or anywhere else. I been doing CNC and inlays for a few years and I have yet to produce anything even close to what you do. thanks, I love watching your masterful creations come to life.

[@chriss79]

I know exactly the feeling you are talking about when you said you just felt in your DNA that you wanted to make stuff. I have been obsessing with woodworking and dabbling in metalwork for some time now, and i couldn't be happier with my journey.

[@theamericanthinker]

As one artist to another, never lose that attitude about not being the best. When one constantly seaks improvement in oneself, it's the single fomula in reaching Master status... which really never comes. But the joy is what you leave behind for the rest to appreciate. Cheers and beautiful work!

[@MandSWoodworks]

@@theamericanthinker Wise words indeed, sir. Thank you dearly for the compliments and thank you so much for watching!!

[@GuisboroughUK]

As someone who's devoted over 50 years to professional engineering machining, including 25 years in CNC, witnessing your skills in woodworking and CNC, despite being newer to these crafts, is truly inspiring. Drawing motivation from critiques is crucial; trust me, machining stands as a skill on par with any other

Onefinity elite foreman. I just got the pwncnc water cooled spindle but have another 3 months wait for the Onefinity. I wanted the spindle to help keep noise down. There are cheaper alternatives to the pwnCNC spindle but I have enough on my plate learning vcarve, designing enclosure, and other woodworking projects so I opted to make some parts of my life easier.
