Yeah Richie, he was pretty sore for a while from two decent off's he had. Plus after a week he mentioned that one included a pipe in the ground. I sat there dumbfounded that after talking about hitting a solid steel pipe he was still discussing build quality. Interesting point, I had made him the b...

great meeting with George to discuss cnc build
Hi folks, George and I had a great skype call on the weekend to discuss his CNC build. He is now on the path to building his first benchtop cnc to do core profiling and base cuts and anything else he can find a use for the cnc - endless really.... And we'll start with MonkeyCAM most likely too. Anyo...

Hi Richard, Very appreciative of your offer--haven't heard from you in several weeks so thought I'd try once more to take you up on this offer before I continue looking into other ways of getting into a CNC set-up. Thank you and hope to hear from you soon. Hi sorry we've not hooked up I'm still ver...

Slowly making some progress in Fusion360. if anyone else is struggling with Fusion, take some time and watch and work along with their webinars. I'm now confident that I'll get to the point I can design my cores in 3D and then set them up in the cam workspace to make toolpaths. It will take a few m...

I really appreciate the offer for help. I've really only put a couple hours into fusion so far. I can see the potential but it is challenging to learn. My new cnc purchase comes with a 1 year subscription. I'll have to see after that. Once I figure out how to create my core thickness profile I thin...

Re: 2.5d vs 3d CAM software
So I've made the jump to CNC and I'm to the point that I need some CAM software. The CNC kit I bought has a 1 year subscription to Fusion360. But I'm having a tough time learning this software for 3D modeling my cores and I'm looking to see what others have used for their CAD/CAM package and to see...

Low cost CNC - offer to help you build one
Hi, I have been messing around the past few years with CNC systems and now am keen to help any of you who are interested in building a low cost CNC to do your snowboard/ski and other cutting / profiling with. I'm proposing you use what ever materials that you have available that will suffice. If you...

"the perfect seam"
So far I have had overall good results but the odd glitch. What ever you method is just do it well and solidly. Don't leave any movement in the cassette to chance. At the moment I can't say I've noticed any difference in the expansion due to the asymetric nature of a splitboard half, there probably ...

splitboard level base
Hi, yes 0.5mm base level difference will probably bite you when you least expect it, on a cat track flat run......shimming might help a whisker but in fact it might not be the whole answer as shimming the chinese hooks does not actually level the top sides of the board, the chinese hooks work best w...

I'd like to try a 3/4 wrap one day. It's obviously an easier and quicker edge to bend. At the moment I find the benefit of having the steel there to guide my cut when cutting off the flash is a big help though. I just updated my CNC control so I have 3 spare stepper drivers and a breakout board rea...
