So, here is my conundrum. I need to V carve a thing but it will end up being cut on a machine that won’t work with Advanced V carve. So My thought was to do two separate tool paths, one that does the V carve along the outline, but with the bottom clearing option un-checked. Then to come back and do a separate pocket operation. The customer has specifically requested that the sides be sloped because its a mold being made. When I run the pocket operation it makes the sides 90 deg. I played around with doing offsets and whatnot, but i don’t think that is the right answer.
So my question is how do i clear the internal portion while still leaving the border V’d. ive attached a couple of screen shots to help illustrate what im seeing. please disregard the projected times, the feeds and speeds are not adjusted.
