CNC Shark Forum

Is it right angles only? This job is already set to run at 200ipm. I don't think the Shark can do much better than that.

I had a similar post about this on the Vectric forum. I am looking for ways to reduce the carve time on some 3d jobs I have been doing. At the suggestion of Tonydude, I tried the post processor for 3d pieces (3d contour) as opposed to the standard one (newarcs_inch) due to the differences in the G64...

I use it in MDF quite a bit and run it at 100ipm and depth of 1/32". It's a single flute bit that I got from MLCS.

My new shark tank. I put a dust chute on one end and then used a length of 3" PVC with a slot as an air intake (the cabinet is as airtight as I could make it). The PVC can be rotated to direct the airflow up/down as needed. The slot is currently cut so the cross section of it is equal to the cross ...
