Absolutely wonderful to put a face to such a lovely voice on many Vectric tutorials I watch. Thank you for being such a splendid educator and communicator. I look forward to many more videos as they are very helpful!

I built this box today. Very good instructions and lead-in to 2-sided carving. I was nervous when I flipped it an started carving, but it turned out quite good. everything lined up exactly as it should have.

[@vectric]

That is great to hear, thanks for your comment!

[@AnthonyJanflone]

Thanks Ben glad you like it! :) ~ Beki

[@edufford8728]

Well done! I have always flipped two sided CNC jobs along a center line with two bolts that align at both ends of that center line. I think I can figure out the 3 asymmetrical dowel hole placement. Nonetheless, well done!

[@vectric]

Thank you Ed for your comments! That is also a method that works :) The benefit of the asymmetric setup is that there is only one possible way you can flip the material over. Thanks ~ Beki

[@stevegronsky8904]

Can you direct me to the video which explains the dowel hole placement? I can't visualize how you "flip" the board with that 3 hole pattern.

[@stevegronsky8904]

My apologies ...... I should have read your description thoroughly, I am going to the tutorial link mentioned there.

[@vectric]

Hey Steve, Sure! The link in the description takes you to some useful two sided machining tutorials. For the dowels use this link: support.vectric.com/tutorials/V9/selectedvideo.php?video_id=51&bookmarks=null&time=1325 and it will take you straight to the dowel section of the video. I hope the helps :) Thanks, Beki

[@raggedybarnwoodworking2823]

what thickness wood?

[@vectric]

Hi Raggedy, the wood I used was 1.245" Thanks, Beki

[@petraolsson8663]

Für das internationale Publikum wäre es schön die Angaben in mm Milimeter zu machen Zoll ist immer etwas umständlich

[@Rhysss1991]

Awesome! What CNC machine are you using there? Thanks!

[@vectric]

Thank you! The one I used in this example is a ShopBot PRSalpha Hope this helps :) ~ Beki

[@AnthonyJanflone]

Beki, I've watched you video on inlaying. I couldn't get into the forum. Now Icannot get into any page. I alerted your tech support and they claimed to not grant me my privileged ownership. I need passwords for full acess to Aspire's pages. Help me if you can. XOXO

[@frehleycomet]

how are you turning the piece to match the dowels when the dowels aren't even going to line up

[@vectric]

Hi There, So i'm using the assymetrical dowel hole method where I reset the x0y0 when it comes to machining on the bottom side - Take a look at this video it may help better understand this concept: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z3jPh42HadOae7c Thanks ~ Beki

[@dickiewshort3587]

Would like to try this File, but I can not find it.

[@vectric]

Hi the files can be downloaded here: www.vectric.com/vectric-community/free-projects/in-the-labs/HeartShapedBox hope this helps, thanks!

[@brianworrell6757]

Where is the link to the dowel method she referred to?

[@vectric]

Hey Brian, The link to several two sided machining tutorials is listed in the description for this video, but for a specific example that explains the asymmetrical dowel method can be found here: support.vectric.com/tutorials/V9/selectedvideo.php?video_id=51&bookmarks=null&time=1325 - I hope this helps :) Thanks, Beki

[@CustomCraftedDesigns]

I cant get this link to work I receive error messages when clicking on these links

[@thomassalin949]

how to change 2019 to 2023?

[@vectric]

Hey there, In this case Beki welded the vectors so they are no longer a text entity that can be tweaked, however you can ungroup the vectors and delete the year out and replace it with new text "2023" the font used was "Script MT Bold" We hope this helps, have a great day!

[@TroyAswegan]

What font is the "I Love You" in?

[@vectric]

Hey Troy, the font is called: Script MT Bold. Hope this helps :) ~ Beki

[@TroyAswegan]

Vectric Ltd Thanks !
