here is som more jumps that I made, it is very easy to cut the Plywood after I got a CMT UP/Down cutter :)
|
Hi Mike what exactly is the meaning of "easy to cut" , was the $63 well worth it?
I am asking bcos I am planning to cut double side laminated MDF and was planning to use a up down cutter, but due to constraints I always end up using the $3.5 carbide tipped cutter which has straight flutes. the whiteside bits here look much cheaper. May be CMT is better quality. RGDS IRfan |
How about this one: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=280383718118 $23 is cheap enough :)
|
It is worth the price, much better quality than the cheaper one. I have cut around. 25 sheets with it and can hardly be seen on it and it cut just as sharp as when it was new, has even run over 2 metal screws without damage :o lucky me.:D |
Irfan,
From my experience Whiteside bits are of very good quality plus it is a great company. Let me pass on a recent experiece with them. I was searching for a bit to match a cutter configuration I needed for a potential project. Onsrud bits would only cut 70 IPM which is a good speed but I needed faster. I called Whiteside. I was given the President of the company. After I explained my needs, he asked to see some photos but thought he could help me. He eventually sent me a modified bit for free and told me that the price for the bit would be in the 20 - 25 range even with the modifications. I will be buying more of their bits with that kind of personal attention given by a company. |

just some pictures of my finished result after I cut some plywood, I use an offset of .5 mm in the final cut and cut depth 1mm.

hi
After some adjustments of Mach3, I got my MM to run at full load with out cutting corners. How is yours CV settings in mach3 and yours lookaHead Video |
Mike,
In General Logic Configuration of Mach. I have Motion Mode: Set to Constant Velocity I have in CV Control : CV Dist Tolerance : 50 Stop CV on Angles > 45. Hope that helps. |
Okay thanks Nils, I set mine to CV Dist Tolerance 200 and the Stop CV on Angles to 70 and my LookaHead is set to 200 works great for me, I really gets very sharp corners in hige speed cutting
|
Are those settings sensitive to inch / mm settings?
|
sorry Gerald. mine is in mm
|
Nothing to be sorry about! I am not familiar with those settings and I just wanted to warn that one must be careful to realise that some Mach settings depends on your inch/mm selection.
