How to fix these weird spots

I am making a wall hanging of a triangle optical illusion. There are some anomalies in the places with the red circles. Do I need to edit the nodes or what to eliminate these oddities.

Your V Bit is so acute that it’s going all the way through the material.
Options:

  • Thicker material
  • Limit the depth of the carve (likely the easiest option)
  • Less acute V Bit
  • Edit the design so the areas are narrower, so the bit doesn’t go as deep.

A depth of t-0.1 seemed to hit the sweet spot of not going through, but minimizing how much of the design ended up with flat bottoms. It also seemed to minimize the cut time.

Unfortunately, Carbide Create wants to cut as deeply as is possible, rather than as deep as a design warrants.

You could depth limit the cut, or, do individual geometry sections for each portion of the cut which overlap.
