๐ฅ Fire up your CNC skills by crafting a custom double-sided wooden grill scraper! This requested project guides you through designing a unique scraper head, emphasizing precision for two-sided machining. Learn to create intricate shapes using draw line, draw arc, and node editing for smooth transitions. Discover how to use the mirror tool to ensure perfect symmetry for double-sided carving and employ the distort tool for unique shaping. Kyle covers essential 3D roughing and 3D finishing toolpaths (Aspire only for custom 3D shapes), along with pocket and profile toolpaths. Master critical concepts like zero planes for overcutting, various alignment pin strategies, and optimizing tool settings for different hardwoods to achieve a flawless, functional product.
