Testing out inlay with the inlay mode feature. Trying to get this under me in MDF before going to hardwood. Everything else cut well and fit well, except for this M. The male piece has rounded inside corners, but the female has sharp points.
Cut with 1/4" downcut for the pocket and 45 degree V bit. Not sure if going to 1/8" will be any better as I thought the V bit would take care of that. I’ll have to scour over the simulation a bit more, but if anyone has some quick thoughts, it’d be much appreciated.
Yea, I’m seeing in the file that the female portion, the bit is rounding the corner and the V bit isn’t showing it’s cleaning it up. Hmm. Changing to 1/8" didn’t seem to do much either.
The male part is in inside corner and only a shallow (15 Degree or so) vee bit will make that go away. If using an end mill and inside corner is always the radius of the end mill. Outside corners can get sharp corners but never inside corners even with rest machining. It only gets less round with rest machining.
