If anyone is interested to join in live or watch this On Demand, I’ll be appearing with Ryan Drapela of Cutting It Close tonight. It should be an interesting hour. The more of you that show up and ask good questions…the more informative the episode will be.
Hi @KevBarn14, at the 1:15:25 timestamp of the playback on the live stream (right after you chat about walnut) you mention stepover of 10%. Could you clarify that number, sounded like you said of the stock value. Also, this stepover is after a roughing pass or without one?
Thanks.
Hey @spcnc
That is the stepover for the 3D Finishing Pass only. The “Stock Stepover” is the value inside Create. That number is 1/2 the diameter of the endmill. Ex.
1/4 Flat Endmill for 3D Roughing - Stepover - .125"
1/4 Ball Endmill for 3D Finishing - Stepover - .0125"
