10-24-2023 Q&A: Mastering Your CNC Setup, Stool Carving Strategies, Resizing 3D Models, and More!

q&a meetup replays Oct 24, 2023

In this Q&A Meetup, participants explored advanced CNC techniques, including customizing Logitech MX3 mouse buttons for CNC tasks, strategies for carving stools with varying depths, and scaling 3D models for box projects. We also discussed transforming 2D designs into 3D models, attaching 3D tabs, enhancing cribbage board designs, and lessons on clipping. This session is packed with tips and techniques for both beginners and seasoned users, offering insights into project scaling, design optimization, and toolpath adjustments to elevate CNC machining projects.

Questions Answered in this Q&A:

  • 00:01:00 - Can you run through a quick review on button assignments for Logitech MX3 mouse?
  • 00:08:16 - Help with strategies to carve seats with different depths for stools.
  • 00:13:24 - I'm going to be carving some boxes that have 3D carvings on the top and bottom, inside and out. If I want to make them smaller slash larger than the model I purchased, do I scale the top and then do some of the same percentage change on the bottom of the box?
  • 00:34:06 - Do we have a lesson close to taking a 2D and making a 3D from it?
  • 00:35:32 - Would you point me to a lesson for attaching the 3D tabs again?
  • 00:36:41 - How to make rows a little thicker on a cribbage board?
  • 00:46:11 - Can you point me to a lesson on clipping?
