Intro to 3D Carving - Part 18 - Vectric For Absolute Beginners

Intro to 3D Carving - Part 18 - Aspire and VCarve For Absolute Beginners
More down here ↓↓↓ Click SHOW MORE!

This is the 18th in a series of videos geared toward the person who has never worked with CAD or CAM in the Vectric Software before.

In this video, I’ll slowly wade into the topic of 3D carving in Vectric Software. We’ll get into Modeling Resolution in Job Setup, and I’ll show you how to set that. Then I’ll import a 3D model from the Clipart that comes with the Vectric software when you purchase it.

From there we’ll get into the Modeling Tab and convert a dome to a dish, add a Zero Plane to the list of components, then calculate toolpaths and preview the project.

As usual, if you have any comments or questions, please put ‘em in the comment section below.

Thanks for watching!

Why does it cut the OUTSIDE square part of the piece as well as the dish? I can't seem to stop it from doing it. Even though we are telling it to cut only the model boundry?

[markrose]

Fantastic video! You did an excellent job explaining how to carve shapes, I had been watching and getting frustrated/lost with a bunch of other videos until I found yours. Well done, Thanks!

[paololiguori]

I tried to learn the software with other videos, but I found it extremely difficult from every point of view (explanation, voice, subtitles, adding tricks, etc.). but your video is fantastic, like all the others you make, the explanations are extremely clear and super precise, thanks for your content you are number one!! thanks Paul

[ulyssesd]

I can't thank you enough. Thank you for taking your time for these videos. I've learned so much from you. I'm very grateful and appreciate it.

[fehmarnkay]

Even if this was a simple example, you also managed to teach me and understand it. That was excellently explained and this is the only way to apply it to later and more complicated projects. The way you explain it, nobody actually does that on YouTube and I thank you very much for that. I not only learn a lot from you but also very much. it is really a pleasure to watch your tutorials🔝👍 Greetings from Germany. Kay
