Hey Paul, awesome work on that chess set build. Really cool to see my tutorials could lend a hand in some way. @Carveco, thanks for the shout-out and for sharing the link to my tutorial. Looking forward to more great content from you guys!

Nice job. I’m 80 and learning CNC as well. That same chess set caught my eye. The free files was a nice incentive as well.

This is really cool and a great solution to make amazing 3D objects on even the most basic machine!

@Todestelzer 10 місяців тому

Great work. I also thinking of making a chess board for my father. The idea with the leds is cool 😎

I'm here because I have just bought a Onefinity CNC to replace my X-Carve and Colin Furze mentioned that he used Carveco on his Onefinity in his most recent video. I was so close to clicking the buy button and then realised it was Windows only! Sigh, oh well, so close.

We do have people using it on a mac with no problems using parallels. I'd send support@carveco.com a message if you need any info.

@jamesh9092 10 місяців тому

What bits did he use?

@philackrill4213 11 місяців тому

Shame you didn't do a video of the whole process of making it. I'd love to see that! Great job though, well done

Paul's gone through the process on his channel: ukposts.info/have/v-deo/naGDpGd-bKxmr40.html

01:28 software clip looks awfully familiar. Don't tell me this video spotlights Paul without mention to the video he watched to learn this method, and then goes on and rips B-roll from that other person's original video, never giving them credit for teaching Paul nor for the usage of their content. ukposts.info/have/v-deo/ioN6iZpvf46Kwqc.html

Hi Seth, Thanks for bringing this video to our attention, we had not seen it until now. We can understand why you believe the footage to be stolen, but rest assured, all the footage in our video was created by us and Paul. The similarities between our video and Timber Falls' tutorial are because we both used the same open-source file in our software. However, we completely agree with you on the importance of giving credit where it's due. We've been in touch with Timber Falls, and they've kindly agreed to let us mention and share their original video as a helpful resource for those interested in this method. Carveco

@SethCNC 10 місяців тому

@Carveco my mistake there, I could have sworn that specific clip at that time stamp was the exact same as in the other one from Timberfalls. But in fact, after watching his back again and it doesn't match exactly, I'll agree to that. I apologize for posting that part without verifying more closely. Keep up the good work. I'm loving the Carveco software and team!

Hi Seth and thanks for your comments they are always appreciated. In my own video that I made I pay my thanks and respect to Jason for giving me the inspiration to have a go at four sided carving. ukposts.info/have/v-deo/naGDpGd-bKxmr40.html

Пол не использует 40% поля Carveco, что снижает детализацию готового изделия. R0.75 фреза слишком велика, я бы резал R0.25, не люблю полосы и доработку в ручную. Метод переворота занимает больше времени по подготовки, и написание УП.
