An old wood workers trick to prevent blow out when drilling thru wood is to use a backer board pressed firmly against the exit side of the drilled hole. Perhaps the same technique can be applied here to prevent blowing out the drilled holes.

If you don't want to have carbon splinters when the mill punch through the carbon, you need a sacrificial board. This way when the mill punch through the carbon in goes in the sacrificial board so the last layer of carbon is supported and does not splinter. Now because you cut in water, it might be difficult to find a cheap board that will not absorb water. Personally I do not cut in water, I have a custom dust collection system that is composed of a dust shoe and a shop vac that has a small particle bag AND an HEPA filter (and do not forget the HEPA filter because it's the only one that can filter the smallest carbon particles). To hold the carbon plate, I cover the back with 2 inch painters masking tape and I glue it to a MDF sacrificial board with wood glue. Once the cut is done you can just pry out the pieces with a screw driver because the only thing holding them is the tape. After that I'm left with the sacrificial board with glue and tape on it. To get rid of this, I'm using a 1.5inch MDF surfacing bit and I run a program that remove 1mm in two passes. Then I`m left with a clean leveled sacrificial board that can be reused again.

The main issue with that burr in the bottom of the plate is the method you use to rise and hold the carbon fiber plate, is you put the carbon fiber sheet on top of a wood waste like DM, plywood or somehing you have, i guarantee you it fixes the issue.

Yes I'm in process of looking for something small enough for the mounts at the same time does not melt to the end mill and create accelerated wear on the end mill.

Great video, I have been cutting carbon for a 1.5 years underwater too. I use double sided 3m tape in a plexiglass bed. I like your magnet tray. I still do not know what I am doing so I just cut slow with 1.8mm carbide bits. I cut slow for 5mm, would like to use smaller bits but kept breaking them. Not sure what speeds are optimal for the different sized bits. I would like to see you do more video's of this nature with more vertical and horizontal cuts. Thank you for making these videos!

When I try to cut CF sheets using my cnc, the bottom edges are burred and have strands that protrude (on the side of the CF that touches the waste board). Does anyone have any tips? What are your tips for a smooth exge after cutting? Using a carbide 3m bit. Thanks

I have been wanting to try cutting some parts. Mainly arms like for the source 1 (hint hint) can't get replacements anywhere. My buddy has a routing table 4'X8' with a nice router so now that I see how. (kinda, for the most part) I think I might have to order some carbon! Any recommendations on extremely good quality carbon? Thanks for all your content! I'm sorry I haven't been able to send you anything lately but I will be very soon.

Just wanted to say THANK YOU! Your carbon fiber videos have been great, and I love the way you explain things and take the time to show us. Really appreciate the extra time you take to show us different angles and even the buttons you press in the software. Because of your videos, I went ahead and bought the Stepcraft and milling bath and am using your videos as a guide. I like your experiments such as the 18 different holes you made to show us the quality with different settings. Very helpful and thank you!
