Very cool! You're motivating me to purchase one of these lathe attachments for my CNC.
Love those bits. nice job
GREAT video ...... I see you are having fun
Great video thanks, my question is your wood is attached to your chuck side by how, it appears that you have 2 washer looking things , I want to know what they are, you are using them instead of having the chuck itself grab the outside?
Hi, could you please to share the setting axis zero point movement on the nachine too?
awesome vid/tutorial! just getting into my 4th axis as we speak so this video was great for me!!!! thank you!!!
I’m curious how you’d mill a pattern into a slight conical, or tapered, stock instead of cylinder. Careful measurement of the actual stock and then model in vectric?
not sure if this is a good idea or not. but have you ever used any kind of colored epoxy when doing you spiral cuts. i have to assume that it would have to be done while prepping your wood
I need this Aspire CAM. How do I get it. Thanks.
Can i run this straight to my CNC router without importing the file into Mach 3?
Great job sir thanks
You have to have a controller. You must first send the file to your controller. I am not aware of how you could send straight to your machine. There has to be some sort of software that tells the CNC machine what to do. I use WINCNC. Mach3 is another popular control software.
Saw whole video. Those are some serious candle holders.
i'm new ..please anybody tell me how you made first tool path that square blank is transfer into round blank
Awesome video, very informative. What spindle are you running on your CAMaster?
7.5 horse power. pretty powerful little sucker.
Is the speed and depth of cut aggressive? how is your machine after some years of using? I never pushde my machine that way before but I will try
Very interesting knowledge video
Sr. Your job is nice, and you professional to operate that machine thanks for sharing this video. I would like to know what model is that CNC, thank you.
Thank you. The machine is a 49x102 CaMaster COBRA X3. Http://www.camaster.com
great tutorial! where can i find some plans or at least some photos of your cnc machine? thanks!
me miself www.CaMaster.com and thanks for watching.
Great video! Could you me explain how to create a continuous rotary profile? I´m using aspire vectric but only I get that my A axes turn 360 degrees, and then it returns to 0 degrees every time.
Thanks for watching. Unfortunately to get a continuous rotary profile you must program or write the GCode yourself. The Vectric products currently do not allow this operation as far as I know, as it uses the rotary axis as an indexer NOT a lathe. There are some companies that provide software for THEIR machines that allow you to do continuous rotary machining, Legacy CNC being one of them. They offer a conversational cam software to those that purchase their machines. Other than that manually programming is the only option I am aware of.
Oh thanks.
I will study it slowly to understand.
Work Against The Grain I know this an older video... this part is confusing. I considered a Legacy machine for this kind of operation, but it is just too big... I ended up ordering a Laguna IQ with a 4th axis and Aspire. You talk about “manually programming the G-code” - can you go into that with a little bit more detail? That’s a critical point for being able to do this. Thanks!
Hi Jeff. My name is David. I really love your work, I´m new in this kind of work, few days a go we buyed a machine cnc and we have no much experience in that, but I love it... I´m learning, I need to know how import other kind of tools for vectric, have you any video of that? Thanks, and congratulations! (sorry for my english I´m from Mexico)
I have a video here on the channel for importing tools. Happy to help any way I can. send me email of questions in English or Spanish I will answer you. Thanks for watching. jefonitoo@gmail.com
Hi Jeff, great video! Thanks for sharing. Can you direct me to resources where I can learn how to write the G code for continuous rotary profile?
search rotary gcode in Google. LOTS of information. there is definitely a bit of a learning curve. once you get basic programming codes, run some tests with no tool and no spindle running. just takes lots of reading and lots of practice. gcode programming search in Google is how I learned. best of luck.
+Work Against The Grain Thanks Jeff, I will Google for resources
What kind of cnc macnine do you have (manufacturer)?
AnatolySeattle It is a CaMaster X3 Cobra
Are you running two different cut files for the rounding and the carving?
Yes. Although since this video I have learned how to combine the 2. However in this instance, yes sir it was two separate files. One for rounding and a second for the twist.
Are you by chance using Mach3 with your Camaster Recoil? I'm having problems getting my getting my A axis to spin at a speed faster than a crawl when running a cut file. I know it has something to do with the A-axis cutting in degrees and the Y-Axis cutting in inches, but the solution escapes me...
No sir. I'm using WinCnc. If you'll email the gcode file in happy to have a look. Jefonitoo@gmail.com
great
Which CNC are you using here?
Chad McDowell CaMaster Cobra X3 48x96 7hp spindle. Www.camaster.com
did you buy the cnc or made it by yourself?
Bought it. www.camaster.com
This is a total sales video. This is nothing else.
Why does it spin back to A0? That seems like wasted motion.
Jason Eads it's just the way I programmed it. Because it was first time programming I over did it on being safe. Programming it to not return to zero would be faster. Thanks for watching.
I'm pulling my hair out here, I've copied your settings exactly and in the preview the twists will only go half way around I've tried everything???
send me your gcode file to jefonitoo@gmail.com and I'll take a look. off top of my head not enough rotations or feeding too fast. your gcode file will tell me. Hope I can help.
Its ok really the toolpaths show ok in the preview its just the tool preview disappears at the seam it must be a software fault. Should work ok on the machine Thanks
Hi Jeff for some reason I only have sound no video ......
I just uploaded..says still processing. Give it 10 Mick, I had same problem on earlier video.
It's working now .......
10:26 show this g-code. in brazilian, no understand english and brazil mm standard....
What version is this?
Gosh, I don't recall exactly but given I did the video in 2014 probably version 4 or 5. Thank you for watching.
Why my little machine say to start from the tail end instead from the head?
Carl Zorro not really sure. Would need more information
Yes, I have a Sears wood crafter and on the book it says to do jobs from tail end to the cup, from left to right of the machine ,which is a manual little machine but makes nice legs and candle holders etc.
Hi...whenever i design wrapping job, i get very strange results where the wrap gets together. it looks like it does not go all the 360 deg. and in that location machine makes a nasty groove....it seems like no one knows the solution...i also applied an offset of 50% of tool diameter and it has not change the problem. It does the same thing when I create design in aspire or i import STL file made in other 3d cad.
cezary zbikowski Hi, yes, I have been trying to duplicate since our last discussion and my suggestion of changing raster strategy of roughing tool path. Can you please send a picture and Aspire file to jefinitoo@gmail.com. Tough to communicate via CZcams comments. It has to be a raster or boundary offset causing issue if only on roughing pass. if you can send pic and file Im confident I can help sort it out.
Excellent , i will do it right now.
It looks to me right now, like the wrapping gadget does not close completely the element. On the simulation I can see clearly that two ends dont join together perfectly.
cezary zbikowski I have an idea but I don't know how to look at pictures or files posted on CZcams. Happy to have a look if you'll e-mail pictures and file to jefonitoo@gmail.com. Haven't received yet.
Should be in your email,,,sent last night.
nice 🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩
I don’t have a gadget called wrapping and don’t see one on tHe gadgets website
With all your math calculations you should get one of those tickets for Mars for free lol :)
Carl Zorro Lol, thanks. Yeah it took me a minute to understand for sure. Thank you very much for watching.
Yep, the Mars mission is gonna need people with good math skills.
No need to yell bro
Qwiv Ya know, thanks...I hadn't realized I was that loud when the machine was going.I had a clip on mic and din't realize I was so load. My apologies and again, thanks for the tip, and most of all for watching.
