Not sure why your channel hasn't blown up. I rank you at the top for advice on building a CNC business. We don't have to sit through 1.5 hrs of yapping to get 20 minutes of good information (some just like to hear themselves talk!). You have an amazing origin story, and the current setup to validate your tips.
I appreciate your humor, laughing at yourself most of the time. Your team clearly likes working with you (hi Jeremy 👋), and in my mind is a window on character.
Keep doing what you are doing.... great stuff!
HI DIAN good to see a familiar face in the comment section! Glad you liked the video 😊
If you watch (a bit) of the channels that have blown up, you'll quickly see the differences. Those differences are, "annoying" to put it mildly - to some people at least. Some of the biggest channels on YT make my skin crawl. I like this channel, you like this channel and over 80k other people do too. We're just not in the majority of the CZcams demographic that blows channels up.
Loving everything you do. You're a wealth of information.
Love seeing how you have grown your business and the quality of material you give us!
Love your videos. Lots of information. Got into cnc as a hobby. I'm retired and it keeps me busy. With some people like you it's great to listen to all the experience that you have to give out to us. Makes things a lot easier. And also, I want to win that walnut. Thanks Again
Love your content
Thany you so much.
Love your channel and looking forward to using that walnut
Another excellent video!
Thanks again!
I love CIC, you have really encouraged me not only with your CNC videos, but also you sharing your mistakes, business savvy and successes.
It is awesome to have a successful CNC business person ,who started out where a lot of us are today, wondering if we should take the on the challenge of a CNC business. Thank you for your videos and honest sharing.
Glad to help
Very great video, just starting out in cnc world....lol. what free woods please...thanks for the video
Great video. Keep it up.
Thanks, you too!
I love your videos! You are honest, admit your failures, and care for others. You also do some amazing projects!! Walnuts!
Make sure to leave your Instagram @ so we can contact you if you win!
excellent video
Thank you very much!
Your videos are great! Tremendous help getting my CNC business off the ground.(free walnut would help also!)
Great videos! Your channel is great!!
If you had a $1000 budget to get started with a CNC machine , which machine would you get?
I appreciate your tips and tricks and sense of humor. Send me that Walnut please.

Great vid. I saw you Patrick Bet-David "Entrepreneur" shirt on in a previous vid. I wonder if you were at a Vault event when I was.
I recently upgraded my machine to have an ATC and variable speed control via the VFD. It took me three years to finally start considering the chip load seriously. So much better results!
I was at the very first vault in Dallas in 2019, followed PBD since 40,000 subs, had lunch with him a few times, but don’t watch him much anymore, wayyy to political and I’m not at that stage in my life yet, don’t need politics, I just need to get smarter and work harder.
@@cutting-it-close Cool, you are an OG follower! I went to 2021 Vault and got a chance to say hi. I made a Valuetainment sign for Pat. Good job with your growth, if I only stuck to a plan I may be there with you. I get stuck in my head too much too.
Helpful video - I have that vintage Laguna CNC, but with the ATC - so I can program in Aspire the feeds and speeds by bit and have Aspire make the change on the machine... I typically run my bits at 40-50 IPM, 18k, and fairly shallow cuts (3-4 passes to cut through 3/4" on a 1/4" bit) and I get crappy cuts and really fine saw dust. A favorite 1/4" compression bit of mine, Amana 46170-K ($$$), has a chipload listed .0031, recommended IPM of 110, and RPM of 18k, with a depth of cut at 1/4". When I've tried running at that high an RPM, I get screaming goats (that goat clip was PERFECT!), a wabbly machine, parts that don't stay put- kind of scary, and the quality of cut isn't really good. Wood is 3/4 pine or plywood. I am trying to follow the mfg recommendations on the bit, but it's a little frustrating! Do you really run your Laguna at "90-120 RPM" as you say in the video?
Great video! I want dat wood but not social media savvy enough for the instagrams!
What’s the best way to contact you, I will still enter you!
Mostly all true, except that with 1 flute bits, you have to go slower than a 2 flute bit, theoretically 1/2 the speed.
I have a 1 flute replaceable insert 90° V bit that I run at 18000 rpm and 40 inches per minute, and my 2 flute brazed carbide V bit I run at 80 ipm.
I also have a 3 flute 60° V bit that I run at 120 ipm.
There's definitely a learning curve with owning your first CNC, and I'm still adjusting things with every bit and type of material 3 years into my ownership.
chipload is calculated per tooth, so not theoretical, but exactly 1/2 the speed.
Excellent content. Yeah, I make most of those :(
Were only human
Great video again!
Always learning from your advice and knowledge 👍
So if I can get a little free advice I’d appreciate it!
1/4” down cut in most woods I’m getting the GOAT SCREAM😂
3hp water cooled spindle,VFD on a Avid 4x4
I’ve slowed spindle rpm down,adjusted speed. Both ways and no changes.
Ugh!
Something I’m sure I’m doing wrong but can’t seem to nail it.
Also one thing I experience a lot of times trying to get greedy with speed is the dreaded CV rounding my corners.
I’m running Mach3 and Vectric V Carve Pro.
So point being like you said…
Figure out the machine capabilities for sure.
Thanks for the videos!
1/4 typically screams a bit, not going to be able to go 400 inches per minute like you should with that machine. 180 ipm is about max with that machine.
You can probably tell the scream is caused by the CNC because of it vibrating as well. Whenever it’s cutting feel the x gantry and if it’s vibrating slightly that’s causing some of the screaming. My IQ does that as well.
@@cutting-it-close Thanks for the reply.
Yep it’s limited on this machine but I’m still a greenhorn so it’s probably a blessing in disguise!
It’s primarily in corners especially in a raster cut.
Guess due to slowing down and changing direction I’m assuming.
Thanks again!
@cutting-it-close Like allways you make videos like no ather youtuber does.oh ya am 14 years old i have a desktop cnc your vids made my cnc ideas grow thanks !!
? One question today from your over 80000 sub . How many CNC routers can one man run at the same time just regular parts nothing special approximately. just a rule of thumb per say number ??? My son and daughter are getting into woodworking and it looks like I’m going to be involved $$$ 👍thanks so much for all your vids 👍👍👍🇺🇸
Literally I own a ranch in Cal and it getting hard out here. We have the machines bought a cnc what would you advise a family man would be the two best thing for me to sale. I have enough to buy around 1000 in wood what wood would you advise and product. I believe in getting advise before going to battle. Looking forward to your feedback
I would love some black walnut! Very good video as I am super green and bought my machine to make money. Thanks!
Don’t forget to leave your ig @ so we can contact you if you win!
@@cutting-it-close haha. What's an ig @ ?
@overlandingpacnw.zr2
👏👏👏
Send the wood to Belgium amigo, make Belgium great again please :p
Would love blackwalnut

Hi great stuff, you mention.feed rate but what about depth? In ply with an 8mm straight cutter what feed rate and depth of cut would you recommend? Thanks👍
So wood you can go down maximum 3x the diameter of the bit. I typically stay around 2x the diameter of the bit and sometimes only do 1x the diameter. On soft plastics it’s 2x and hard plastics it’s 1x the diameter of the bit. I hope this helps! The feedrate depends on the number of flutes
@@cutting-it-close thanks very much, I've been going just over 1x depth using 7m/minute and snapped a couple of bits. Reduced to 5m/ minute and been ok but would like to run quicker
Snapped another bit today, 1/4 bit. 2 flute running depth just over 1/4 per pass at 236 ipm. Do you think running too slow? Cheers
I’m dreaming of a walnut Christmas!

A mistake i see beginners make is throwing out dull bits, V bits for example you can get them professionally sharpened for a fraction of the price for a new one.
Regular fluted bits is more of a hassle since hobby machines usually aren't able to do cutter compensation. but it's a great way to save money imo.
True!
3:40 minutes
3/8 is approx 9,5 mm.
12 mm is approx 1/2 inch
Muito bom!
Erro numero 1 eu sempre errei😂😂😂 mas você ta ficando velho kkkk
Depois de assistir exaltivamente seu video pude compreender sobre avanço x rpm x flute. Tambem procurei ver as limitações de minha maquina então pensei: para maquinas pequenas e de pouca velocidade de avanco nao seria melhor ter spindle com torque maximo a 12000rpm?porem pensei tambem twria que ser refruferado a agua. Me diga se estou enganado pra mais uma vez não dar bobeira 😂😂😂😂
Como meu spindle é refrigerado a água utilizo apartir de 10000rpm
De modo a alcancar alguma combinações da tabela de velocidade
I love walnut .
Make sure to leave you ig @ so we can contact you if you win!
The feed rates thing intimidates me, lol
It is quite confusing 😅
Hello what is the link for that cnc machine?
I do not have an IG account, but i'll find a way to get in touch with you if I happen to win. Great content, especially lately.
What is a good way to get in touch with you just in case?
