Nice work! It's particularly timely for me - last week I got my order of several new cutters to experiment with for the same purpose (SO3XL). I haven't had time to make chips yet, but I'll probably watch this a few times again before I do. Thanks for posting it!

Hi Winston, have you ever tried any paid software for feeds and speeds? I did the 30 day trial for Gwizard and found it helpful for using my XL to cut metal because you can dial back the settings to account for the fact that the supports aren't as rigid on a desktop router.

I haven't unfortunately. I haven't even tried Cambam, despite resolving to a year ago. Too many projects where I bury my head in the sand and go with what I know. But I should look into them...

Many years ago I attended Wentworth Institute of Technology in Boston in the production engineering / applied science program, and one of the best formulas they gave us for determining speeds and feeds was : Cutter speed (for whatever material you are working with and can be found in the Machineries Handbook) x 4 / diameter. The diameter is for whatever is spinning. On a milling machine it would be end mill / cutter diameter. On a lathe, it would be the stock. It's a good starting point that you can tweak for variations in hardness of the stock, type of mill (carbide, HSS, insert ....), or rigidity of the set up. Hope this is helpful

Great project Winston! As I am just about to start CNC with a my new Shapeoko 3, I would be interested in hearing more about the workflow from Fusion 360 to Shapeoko. Would it be possible for you to make a more detailed video about that? Things like setting up a basic tool library with Shapeoko-compatible feeds&speeds, how to create Shapeoko-specific g-code from Fusion and how to send that to the Shapeoko maybe? Do you have links to the endmills you used? Maybe you can put them in the description of this video?

Hey Winston, I've been watching your videos for a while now and just wanted to thank you for the great effort you put into your projects and videos. So thanks for that! Additionally I wanted to mention, that I would really love to see a tutorial on how to set up different milling operations & feed rates in fusion360 and furthermore how to export the created toolpath in gcode using the right postprocessor for the shapeoko 3. Best regards & keep up the good work!

Awesome job! How long did this take to machine? I am thinking many, many hours. I have the 1000m X-carve and was attempting to carve a multi-key tool from 1/8" aluminum and the estimate was nearly 3 hours. I can imagine milling 5 different sides took quite a while. Also, the drill bits you got from Ebay are awesome. I have been using them with great success every since i got my X-carve. I have broken quite a few, but that was all due to operator error. Anywho...., Great job! Love your work!

Took about 50 minutes per side, +/- a bit depending on tool changes and such. And breaking bits is all part of the learning process!

Great project Winston !!! I just found your channel a couple of days ago and have enjoyed a number of your projects. My father in law makes all kinds of cool wooden things, and sells them on consignment at local shops. I was thinking I'd like to make him a branding iron to permanently label his work. You had mentioned you used Fusion 360 to generate the code to mill the tool path. How do you mirror the code so it is reversed for use as a brand? Keep up the great content. Thank you

Each of the long faces took about 45 minutes, the smaller sides about half that. But I also spent a fair amount of time in Fusion360 before I even started cutting.

Yes. The two sides that were made purely on the Shapeoko work fine. I just like the effortless accuracy of the Nomad, and automatic tool length probing makes the multiple tool changes way more convenient.

Winston Moy I have a ME degree and worked 18 years with an aerospace engineering firm (techshot.com) designing projects for NASA and DOD. I'm working as an independent product developer now. I also have a SO3 and a Nomad Pro. I'm in the process of adding way covers, dust collection and a 1hp spindle motor upgrade to my Nomad. The 0.07 hp spindle is hopelessly underpowered but I love the precision of the Nomad. You have "the knack". Keep up the good work!

Thanks, means a lot coming from someone who's done their time and seen as much as you have. Way covers would be great. I was watching brass chips falling onto my steel guides underneath, and was contemplating using a brush to try and keep dust out of the Nomad's base. Also planning on wiring up an LED strip for illumination. Let me know how your upgrades go.
