I just used a 1" surfacing bit to surface my wasteboard a tiny amount (0.02") then felt for ridges, made adjustments then did again. After a few adjustments there were no visible lines and only a micro line could be felt by hand and since the 1" bit will exaggerate the errors I found with a 1/4" end mill I could neither see nor feel any lines. I did use the 123 blocks to tram left to right (putting them under the router mount while it was slightly loose and then pressing it down onto the block until it self seated). This gave me excellent results left and right. I then shimmed the router bracket with some thin metal under the bottom to fix a slight forward lean in it.

Thanks for sharing, the more information you have the happier your CNC experience will be. Learning machinist skills in woodworking is an interesting journey! Great video. Cheers

In your trig you're assuming that your wasteboard is like optically flat glass. It's only mdf so the difference in readings between the two could be because it's a bit spongy and the measurement is across different distances is dependent on the mdf stiffness. I think a comparison where you had a block of polished granite as the test surface would be a better test of the two tools.

Tramming a hobby CNC is going to always be a process of dialing it in incrementally. After doing an initial rough tramming with a square or 1-2-3 block the wasteboard should be level but not necessarily flat. You could measure in a few spots and use the average or adjust to the measurement you get and then repeat the process. As you said with the materials in use there's only so much accuracy you can get out of it, but there's likewise only so much accuracy that you need.

I have an AngleCube that I use on my table saw. Its an absolute wonder why I never thought to use it to tram my Shapeoko XXL.

Just a couple comments on your great video: when using this method it would generally be better to use a 1/4" dowel pin in place of a cutter. Dowel pins are stronger, and many times (if using cheap Chinese end mills) they may be slightly undercut from the actual shank diameter, which you would be measuring as tram error. When doing the demo with the paper under the angle gage, you've effectively doubled the apparent thickness of the paper by sliding it halfway under the gage. This looks like a great method to replace a dial indicator, but one must be aware of the potential opportunities for error.

I guess all I was tyring to show there was the indicator was sensitive to a single sheet of fairly thin paper. Not super clear there but the indicator has small ridges it's not perfectly flat on the bottom, so it's only contacting the wixey gauge on one spot. It was indeed one of the less scientific parts though.

Curious if you rotated the bit 45 or 90 degrees and took a additional angle readings with the Wixey. I'm wondering how well the edge of the Wixey was seated against the side of the bit and if the reading you got is repeatable at 45 and 90 degrees from your starting point. I realize the bit is the same diameter for its entire length but you instrument is referencing the edge of a single flute and if I remember (without running out to the shop and looking at my Wixey) the side of the angle gauge is not perfectly smooth and flat. Also, the Wixey (I love mine not picking on them here) only displays to one significant digit, so it's only resolving to two digits and rounding off and displaying one digit. That means the Wixey could be measuring 1.51 degrees but it's displaying 2 degrees. And it works the same above 2, the actual angle might be as much as 2.49 degrees. Just keep that in mind if you're thinking of using any digital angle gauge in this manner. When thousandths (.001) count, you can't be measuring in tenths (.100). :-)

I love your channel! Your videos have been a huge help to me. I was wondering if you have a video or could point me in the right direction on how to edit nodes in Carbide Create.

I’m planning a return to videos and covering some of the new features that have been added is definitely on the to do list.

Actually, I think one of your previous videos covers that. I’ll have to take a look at that. Thanks.
