Actually I am getting ready to run my first flag for my dad. I bought a shapeoko3 to make little signs for my fence company. My mom asked for a sign for her office door. Couldn't say no so I watched you and couple other to find a flag design to disgn it and then tile it to run on my machine. Paint is a little tacky still (kinda good cuase I am hesitant to run). Your videos have helped me alot. I run a cnc punch for a manufacturer but you have helped become comfortable with my machine so I thank you.
Thank you for this video. I was feeling overwhelmed and was going to buy everything to make the threaded wasteboard I see everywhere. This is honestly more up my alley and will work perfectly for me. Thank you for saving me the time and headache!
That was the first thing I did when I got mine. What a mistake that was.
Well done!!! Sweet dust boot! Great instructional audio and tone.
You are an awesome teacher dude. Thanks for this.
Great video and thank you for the information, keep up the good work!
Thanks for the video. Creating a waste board is my next project.
Awesome video. Thank you for sharing this. I hope you post more how to videos on the CNC. Just purchased an XXL and eager to learn more about it. Brand new to the CNC world.
Great video!!!Just got my machine last month so still learning
Very informative! Looking forward to the tramming video
Excellent video man 👌🏼
Looking good!!!
Just an extra step that I have found it very effective is to use diluted varnish/sealer for the base board especially as The MDF or Chip Board is very sensitive to Humidity. Honestly it makes a difference also keeps board looking nice and easy to clean. I actually use 2 pack automotive clear, seal edges first and back of the board, flip it over mount and install insert nuts ect, Do a suface cut then seal top and edges again give a light sand and one full coat of clear at 10%. All just brushed on and throw brush away after. I live in Melbourne Australia so our humidity changes a lot in a day.
That sounds like a good idea. I might give that a try on my next one.
Informative and easy to follow, great job on making this video, really appreciate it 👍
Thanks for watching!
Good Video sir. Thank you for the instruction! Some of your techniques are quite original and all are well thought out. Cheers!
Thanks! I’ve tried a few different setups, and this just seems to be the one that works best with my workflow.
Great hints, thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching
Great video Chris, I messed up my first waste board by surfacing myself in to a hole,, Like what you did here
Thanks. I’m working on another style right now for the Frankenpoko. Should have a video out about it soon.
Nice work and information
Thanks!
Great video! Thanks. At 3:34 did you take any sort of measurement to align the wasteboard before screwing it down?
i hit the like and subscribe button but funny thing happened when I hit the subscribe button: A CZcams message popped up and said "If you follow Chris Powell any closer, he will be forced to file stalking charges against you. Please refrain from hitting the subscribe button more than 27 times, otherwise you're playing with it." LOL.. always good and thorough videos Chris.
Someone at CZcams must have it out for me haha.
Chris great video i am ready to do a nes waste board and squaring rails. Good tip on making sure the squaring piecers ar square ti the router..
Did you just put the bit in and set a depth and start the router an jog it manually.? And that was an 1/8" bit right. Also I see that you have one of the rear dust port dust shoes I have one also and am having trouble attaching the hose to something solid on the back side to keep the hose in place. Could you share ho you hold your in place . Thanks Jeff
Thanks. Yea it’s an 1/8” bit. I just got it close by eye and touched off on the top of the guide. Then I just lowered it and jogged it manually.
I just run it up the back and use a hose clamp to secure it to the top z axis pulley cover.
@@ChrisPowellFSD Thanks
Nice video. What do I need to do if I am making larger 32-33 inch projects? I am going to try your method.
The max travel these have is 32x32, but the wasteboard would have to overhang in the front.
Nice vid....hey what dust shoe is that? I've always wanted to try a back hose like that! John S from SO FB group btw.
Thanks John. It’s a PwnCNC
Hello
Why not make the waste board as big as the cutter can cut?
Have a great day.
Patrick
It’s just a little within the max size. You don’t have to come in a full inch, you just need to make sure you take the radius of the bit into consideration.
I am watching this video again .Chris looks like you have a piece of mdf that has tee nuts in it that the new board you just installed over it . is the one with the tee nuts in it the original bottom for the machine or a second piece of mdf Jeff
That’s in the original wasteboard. I made the mistake of installing those when I first got the machine, and never used a single one.
@@ChrisPowellFSD Does the new spoil board come up to the top of the front and back rails so you can do tiling if you have a project that calls it. just wondering I make custom cabinets for a remodeler
that are longer than the cutting area on the xxl So I use the tiling tool path in VCarve Pro.
@@resorter66 I just put them in the machinable area so the whole surface can be surfaced. Otherwise you wouldn’t be able to tile a project.
What is that circular saw setup you were using?
That’s a Wen track saw. Best $130 I’ve ever spent.
Do you have a video on design for Carbide Create?
Tons of them. Here’s the whole play list. czcams.com/play/PL6BcRGh7FY3AHUgVGnBcyhlyFWdASm1j3.html
This is a good one that covered a lot of the tools in CC. czcams.com/video/h6cs8gkEHXE/video.html
I’m crying!! I can NOT get the spoilboard right. Countless failed attempts and I have no idea what I’m doing wrong. I’m so sick of rpm, ipm, Chip load, post processor, zeroing repeatedly. Seriously about to throw away this Onefinity cnc that I wanted so bad and waited forever for. I’m sure it’s not the machine, but operator error. I’ve watched ever CZcams video and read every forum. I’ve never felt so dumb.
What’s going on with it? Shoot me an email or message me on Instagram and we should be able to figure it out.
