5 Beginner CNC Projects with the Bits and Settings I Used

Love the video. Thanks for posting. I’m only thinking about buying a cnc and was erring on the side of not bothering overall but you’ve given me hope! I noticed however you look to have a decent sized machine. Would a budget entry level cnc machine be able to cut with such clean accuracy? Such as a sainstsmsrt 3018 Thanks

LOL, just another Five! ))))

Sooo cool!! Glad I found your channel!!! I’m just getting started with CNC!!! Thanks for the cool vid and content. Very inspiring. ❤ 👍🏽👌

Buy a bit zero so you don’t have to do the paper trick

Awesome video. It's super helpful for noobs like me to see the feeds/speeds that you're using. I recently got a Onefinity also and always found that if I pushed my 1/4" DC endmill above 50 IPM (with ~0.1 depth of cut), my machine seemingly struggles. I don't know what the issue is yet but it's good to see that it's possible to safely crank my numbers up

How much are you selling these?

One idea to save you swapping bits on the trivets, just use the v bit to cut the outer profile. It looks like it has the depth you need. If you have a flush trim bit and a router table, you can knock off the little bit that’s left at the bottom. Not worth it if you’re just doing one or two, but if you’re in mass production, it could be a time saver.

great controller choice haha

Thanks for sharing your expertise. I see you work with a Makita router. I am looking to buy a CnC router machine with the same router. I assume you have to set the speed manually and not through the software. Is that a problem for you? How do you work around it by not setting the speed through the software?
Can you please tell us the model of the Makita Router. The links on your Tools List page do not work.

Why did you use a pattern bit?

So on your second project here, flattening the slab, you only used the cleats around the edge to hold it down? No other glue/screws/clamps?

Neat beginner projects.
