Interested in my CNC related content specifically? I've decided to launch a CNC Projects Playlist, which is an easy way for you to see new CNC projects, design files, and techniques, as soon as it's launched! Hope you enjoy it! kzbin.info/aero/PLQ7n44jxkajY-1Uu3st5JnJu1ii7_8wz_

I know a lot of people love the exotics like purpleheart, wenge, cocobolo, etc. But I just love cherry. I love everything about it. The way it looks, how it machines, the smell of it, how beautiful it looks with a nice finish, it's just amazing. Plain maple too.

Had to save this one. I have not done an inlay yet and plan on trying it sometime when I have time. Thank you for sharing. 😊

[@SothpawDesigns]

Hope you enjoy it! The v bit method really is easy as long as you make your files properly.

[@roblehmann2378]

Great video. Thanks for sharing

[@SothpawDesigns]

Thanks for watching!

[@dannypetersen1377]

Just subscribed great videos

[@Tensquaremetreworkshop]

Really good explanation and comparison. Just started doing inlays, and this was very useful!

[@AlienLeader4]

Great video. Lumber species Purple Heart, Sepelle, Leopard, Red Heart are some great choices. Keep up the great work. 👽

[@SothpawDesigns]

Never seen leopard. Sepele seems to be a popular one. Gonna have to get some!

[@ForvoQuizlet]

Shop for padauk. Jumped here after reading the Medium article. Thank you!

[@tpsooner7816]

Great video! Thank you.

[@SothpawDesigns]

Glad you liked it!

[@bubba6945]

I like ash. its a really white colored wood and easy to find materials that contrast with it

[@davidcochran934]

Great video. Always enjoy watching. I like the first method for doing name puzzles. Usually have to add a little allowance for space for piece to come out but works great. Method two is definitely better for inlays. And the bandsaw made me very nervous at first too. haha

[@switz11]

Your videos are very informative. Thanks

[@SothpawDesigns]

Thank you.

[@MarkLindsayCNC]

Nice video! Thanks for the heads-up comparison of the 2 methods! My favorite woods to carve are walnut and sapele. Sapele can have some pretty spectacular flame to it, depending on the cut. They both carve like butter and finish great. I also like hard maple and cherry. Maple used to be my go-to, but I've been doing a lot more cherry projects here lately.

[@SothpawDesigns]

I love walnut, and have done several projects with it, but I've never used Sepele. I've seen it in several projects online, as well as seeing it at Woodcraft. I'll put it on the list!!

[@danielstein8320]

I see you have Lightburn installed and in your link tray at the bottom of your screen. I use Lightburn for my Cad Design? Please explain thge workflow using Lightburn. Thank You!!!! Dan

[@SothpawDesigns]

I'll work on that.

[@modelistajose]

Hello, it's nice to meet your channel, I've reviewed your videos, I have a question, is there an option in V Carve Pro, or the Shop Saber software, for my cnc machine to do a vaccum cleaning on the plant after performing a project? I also have a big question, how do I configure V Carve Pro, or Shop Saber, to keep the same configuration when I have to make many cuts the same.

[@SothpawDesigns]

Regarding question 1, I'm not sure what you're asking. Regarding question 2, if I understand what you're asking, you can simply duplicate the shapes, then repeat the toolpaths as many times as needed.

[@josephlanglois8073]

Sir., did u use 1/4 em on both cuts.

[@SothpawDesigns]

No

[@kevinrich4637]

Nice video…new subscriber just because male/female because it will make someone mad! Perfect 😂 I like to use spaced maple and walnut

[@SothpawDesigns]

Love it!!

[@af2001]

Good afternoon

[@justinbanks2380]

"I'm gonna keep calling them make and female, because I know it will make someone mad. And that makes me laugh." 🤣 It always amazes me people get offended about that when we're literally talking about inanimate objects and have used this type of terminology for decades for screws, plugs etc. Lol

[@rb67mustang]

I'm a retired machinist, and so, what's wrong with the small radius? The letter is still the same font with an ever so slight radius in the corners. I would've purposely made the Male letter with the same corner radius as the Female pocket has.

[@stuartgray5877]

I subscribed immediately after the "male female" reference! 😂

[@SothpawDesigns]

YES!!!

[@raytristani]

Oh no!!! Make and female!! The horror😂 Great video. You earned a subscriber!

[@SothpawDesigns]

😂😂

[@brodiewells]

I came to see how you made the toolpath, but you skipped over that since you already made them.

[@SothpawDesigns]

Sorry. Good point.

[@RobsReels]

I liked your video. I just was a little worried about your fingers there by the band saw. But we're men we could handle it. I have seen other people just reattaching to their CNC and let the CNC cut it off. Anyway, good video

[@SothpawDesigns]

Good point! I didn't feel that I was too close, but I'm new to a bandsaw, so you could be right. You're correct that I could have just cut it out on the CNC, which I hadn't thought about. Good call.

New subscriber.... "It's gonna make somebody mad, and that makes me laugh."
