We've an Infinity Tools Point Cutting Bit, 58-500B, using it for sign lettering, but can't figure out exactly how to define the bit in VCarve to use with our Shark HD. I've put it in as a V-Point, but it's not exactly, it has a flat tip .20" wide, rather than a point, so it's taking off more wood than needed on the side of every cut. Anyone know how to define something like this in the tool database?
Thx in advance - Jim

Well, darned if the answer isn't "read the directions!"
Found it with a bit more searching, open a new file, draw the right half of the bit shape, select it, then open the tool database, create a new tool and it'll populate with the bit shape just drawn.
