No problem. If there’s more that I can help with let me know.
That wasn’t directed at you. The quotes are to indicate that it’s impossible. It’s also why you see me typically put quotes around the V when I say “V” tip. Some tools are also marketed that way or as “0 tip” cutters. I tend to go off on it as it’s a pet peeve of mine. Both on the software and tool side. e.g.:
Or I guess you could look at those for reasons related to “V” bits and cutting…
The short version is there’s a bunch of extra problems with “infinitely sharp” “V” cutters. From impossibility, to weakness, to calculation errors, to surface speed, to chipload, to… I should stop now.
What I was referencing from you was:
If the software is accounting for the tip it’s the opposite of this. It will cut smaller than expected as it assumes that the tip is 0.0625" and the tool is only 0.0625" after 0.03125" of plunge. If the tip isn’t accounted for you are correct and it will cut wider.
