Questions by our students with links to video answers covered in our Q&A Meetups.
- Looking for some help with a 3D dish he has and he wants to split it to be able to make it into like a lid.
- Add texture to the outside of this dish he has over here on the left. He wants to add texture to the flat areas on the perimeter, but he wants the center of the dish to still be smooth.
- He wants to know he's new to fourth axis CNCing. He's using a next wave and he says on this machine it makes more sense to wrap on the y axis as it gives me nearly 48 inches for the workspace between the headstock and Tailstock. I'm having trouble with text alignment no matter what I do.The text is going around the Y axis. I would like to have the text to go to align with the Y axis rotating. The text isn't working.
- Sometimes to get my chip load correct at 18,000 RPMs, I need to increase my inches per minute over a hundred inches, although the tool library recommends 50 inches per minute. Is this correct?
- I have a vacuum system that I just put on my machine, are those things like a fire hazard?
- I'm having trouble when to use add subtract and combine mode. Do you have a great video to help understand this?

- Is there efficient way of repeating the tooth? I've created one tooth segment and I've tried to copy and paste it, but it's very cumbersome to get the next segment to be exactly spaced. I'm pretty new to VCarve and designing.
