CNC Basecamp Ep011: Pencil Boxes

[@jeffreystewart6571]

These CNC demonstrations are some of the best on KZbin. Thank you

[@WoodsmithShowandmagazine]

Thanks! Glad you like them!

[@korma9732]

Brilliant, clear and simple to follow. Thank you

The two color tree lid is a really neat idea. That concept can really be applied in all sorts of ways. Thanks for the video, the series and the inspiration.

Decent tutorial. In doing boxes with a fitted lid I've found that doing the lid first and then the box body you can make fine adjustments to the fit. Start with a close fit and leave the box attached to the table. Check the fit. If you want to loosen the fit simply change the parameter for the next cut. If you use a roughing bit , then a finish bit you only need to run the finish bit on the next pass. Also consider a tapered ball nose for very fine detail. A 6.5 degree will provide fine detail and I find them reasonably durable.

I would love to see CNC Basecamp have it's own playlist. That way it could be easily be seen in sequence automatically.

Great projects. Interesting design for the tree lid box; I liked it.

[@WoodsmithShowandmagazine]

Thank you very much!

[@RobSandstromDesigns]

Good information- thank you.

[@Bart_Depestele]

Thank you

I would like to do the same thing for my 520 as well. This was a great video. My wife recently asked me to put up a white stack stone wall the cost is ridiculous so I thought maybe I could make my own stack stone and paint it white but trying to figure out how in vcarve pro still. Maybe creating common stuff like that would be a good episode on the base camp 🤔🤔😉😉😉

Your roughing pass is a 45-degree z-level raster, but your finish pass is an offset. What's the reasoning for this choice of roughing? Speaking of roughing, I find it skippable in this situation. The cut might be shallow enough for the finish tool to handle all by itself

[@codyfawcett7287]

What is the mount for the VFD on the gantry? I would love to do that with my hd520

[@codyfawcett7287]

I see some other replies from wordsmith, but no idea what the VFD mount is on the gantry yet :(

[@theelitegroup276]

I have a guy who can make that out of metal super easy. Asking him to make mine as we speak

[@chuckscott4283]

Did you use easel to carve and where did you buy the file? If not what program(s) did you use???

[@andylevra2452]

so u need a 3d capable machine?

[@zachdanzer6514]

How long does the file take to run?

[@i679n5]

Not very long. You will go about longer mounting and fixing - not talking about Prepping the files and parameters.

[@patricerodgers7497]

As for me, no equipment, no wood skills -- do you sell your products?

[@ПулатХоджа]

Сначала пока не смотрел ваш видео думал это ручная работа хрен полная

[@tralfazy]

$50 for the oak file, $25 for the trout or the pine tree file? What kind of ridiculousness is this? Who would pay that much for a simple design file for a pencil box and why would you recommend such a thing to your viewers?

[@bryan__m]

Err, there's a link in the description for a free download of the file, and you don't even have to sign up for a mailing list or anything to get it.

[@tralfazy]

@@bryan__m That's great Bryan! Thanks. Was the link to the wrong place before? (I can't remember what I clicked on now)

[@bryan__m]

@@tralfazy I'm not sure. I only just now saw this video, so I didn't see any original links.
