Awesome idea with the toothbrush. Lol. I’ve used the advanced vcarve. With and without the bitsetter. Love the bitsetter. Thx. It’s good to see other people doing the same thing.

I am not using carbide motion but I do use carbide create. While my settings are on basic GRBL I do get a pause command with regular tool changes and advanced vCarve tool change but thanks to your video I notice it tells you what tool to change too. Thats nice! Just got through testing to see if it pauses for the advanced vCarve and that was successful. Looks like tonight Im going to test changing it to carbide 3d Shapeoko and see if I get the same tool change message. You told me on a message about the bit setters and collars so I have been looking into it. Great idea but since I go ahead and move and raise my z axis during bit change I might as well use a touch plate so I just bought the touch plate. Should be getting it today. I think that will do the same thing although not as fast as using a collar. But like your video says, your collar was slightly off because of human error and that is why I didn't buy the collars. In my view, a bit setter is the exact same thing as a touch plate that only tests for the z height. The length of the bit should be automatically counted for in using a plate. Additionally, I did subscribe. You have great down to the point videos. Now I have a question if you could answer please. I know Im wording this wrong but please try to understand. If I were to carve a regular slot with a bit to a certain depth I would just create a regular line on carbide create and tell it the depth to cut to. In reality world the router will ramp in sideways and go back and forth till the desired depth is reached. However, I have a key hole bit which needs to plunge in once, go forward, go backward and pull straight out just once. In carbide create, under the design tab, the line for the slot and the line for the key hole are created exactly the same way? What do I do to tell carbide motion to treat it differently? I watched videos for both techniques and don't have a clue. There isn't exactly a checkbox that differentiates the two like in other programs. I would like to do it on purpose and not by accident please.

Carbide Create doesn’t have ramp in. It will just move to the start position, plunge in there, and then follow your line.

@@ChrisPowellFSD maybe i dont know what ramping in really means. The bit will come in at an angle and eill not directly plunge in. That is what i call ramping in. While other orograms have this option and are user controoled, carbide create is already programmed to ramp in sideways. I just dont know how to soecfically tell it to use a different opratuon when using a keyhole bit.

@@ChrisPowellFSD Again, i want to reitetate that the version i have will not plunge staight in. It comes in from the side at an angle. Ive also done keyholes which i just copied what the video did and while the line was created the exact same way it perforned differently. It plunged staight in. Went forward, come backward to exact spot and pulled staight out and left me with a keyhole. Which is completly different than ramping in sideways with a regular bit.

@@ChrisPowellFSD I'm pretty familiar with programming but I don't have enough experience with operating carbide create to figure that out yet. You may be still right but so far I think it depends on what operation your doing and which tool you use (design mode tool). For example. I. have a 1/16 bit. If I want a 1 inch slot in my wood there are two ways to do it. I could draw a rectangle the width of my cutting bit OR I could draw a poly line 1 inch long and snap it back and forth on the grid. My opinion so far is that those are two different operations that will operate differently which depends on the programming. This is a free program after all so they might not offer user controls BUT. the programming is still there. I just haven't tested that yet but drawing a poly line to a certain depth will make the tool ramp in and go back and forth till the desired depth. That same exact operation is why I don't know the difference between using a keyhole bit operation and a router bit operation to cut a slot which no one seems to want to answer. I was hoping you knew that answer?

If you don't have a bit setter or depth collars, how do you get the new bit set to the right height? In your video I didn't see a prompt for a bit setter either. I'm confused lol.
@ChrisPowellFSD

You can’t. They don’t give you the option to reset z. The easiest way is the collars or a bit setter. I prefer not add unnecessary gadgets to my machine, so I chose the collars. You could also edit the g code or run the program multiple times, but both of those are a lot of extra steps.

Thanks for making this video as it has showed me one huge problem with how my file is working!! I have followed all of the steps you take but when i upload the g code to carbide Motion it does not show multiple tools or even ask me to insert either of the tools like yours does!!! It seems as though it is only bringing in the first part of the advanced carve. I don't know what I could possibly be doing wrong. Any help would be great. Thanks!

Great video Chris. I am trying to download the free trial version of CC pro .that is free for 1 year. But am having trouble. Also I see in the video you have a large dia 2 flute router bit maybe 3/4" or 1" ? what do you use that for and and would you mind sharing your speed rate and plunge rate and depth of cut. I just bought a set of 3 from MLCS that are suppose to be plunge bits.

Thanks. What trouble are you having? The big red 2 flute is my surfacing bit. It’s a 1-1/4” Freud. For the 1/8 and 1/4” bits, I usually run them around 100ipm feed and 80 plunge. I do about .04 dpp on the 1/8” and .1 on the 1/4”. That’s for pine. I usually reduce those numbers my half for hardwoods.

Found a workaround. You need to open the *.nc g-code file and find the M0 Txx line (xx is your tool number). Anything before the line is the end mill part, everything after is the v bit part.
