First step is that usually, if you set a depth, you should also set a clearing bit. This will give a clean, flat-bottom look to the stars.
OR, set the value to t, a special value that means “go as deep as needed to clear the area”.
If you set a depth without a clearing bit, then the V bit will carve along the edge up to that depth, and leave the rest.
From left to right
- depth limited, no clearing bit
- Depth limited, with clearing bit
- No depth limit.
Stars are 10mm wide, depth is 1.5mm, V Bit is 60deg.
Note also, changing the depth will not change the size of the stars. If you want them bigger, you have to make them bigger in the design.
