Calibration Time!
Time for some products to come off the board! The very first product I made with my 3018 PROVer was a combination of a V-carve and a 3D carve that I had been planning ever since I started saving up for a CNC: a House Number plate with our house number on it, plus on two sides a recessed 3D carve of a Labrador Very different from what other people use as their first product, I'm sure 😁. But I had it all prepared already, and I had some scrap wood laying around to give it a shot. So I just went for it! Using a 60 degree V-bit for the lettering and a R0.25mm tapered ballnose bit for the 3D carving (with a 1/8" End Mill for clearing). Dimensional accuracy is not important at this stage, because I have only one part, and nothing needs to fit together yet. For scale: the piece of wood is only 45mm high ( ~1.75", for those of you that are more comfortable with inches). So the little 3D carve is only 30x30 mm or so. Also, the wood itself is rather soft, so there were some fuzzi
