THIS IS A TEST PROGRAM SO USE A JUNK PICE OF WOOD TO START
YOU NEED A CNC WITH A 4TH AXIS FOR THIS TO WORK
STANDING IN FRONT OF THE CNC CHUCK THE WOOD IN
FIND THE CENTER AND ZERO FROM LEFT TO RIGHT
GO 4 " TOWARDS THE RIGHT AND ZERO X AT THAT POINT
TOUCH THE WOOD AND ZERO Z THERE
THEN RUN YOUR PROGRAM
IT WILL CUT 4 LOCATIONS ONE AT A TIME THEN ROTATE 90 DEGRESS EACH TIME WHEN DONE IT WILL RETURN TO ZERO
REPLACE WOOD AND HIT CYCLE START RUN ANOTHER AND SO ON
WHEN YOU TAKE OUT THE FIRST PIECE CUT OFF THE 4 " PICE TO THE LEFT AND YOU HAVE A PERFECT HANDLE END

USE A 28" PIECE 140 DIA.
USE A 1/16 BIT
COPY ALL IN RED AS PROGRAM FILES

Rep for you. I've done this a few times on the bandsaw but I hadn't considered doing this on the CNC. Very creative.

I'm going to give something similar a try this afternoon.
 
For the lucky CNC owners Lee is giving you a gift. This is the way to build full splice. I know this because I have two in progress that I built with my CNC.
I can't wait to see pictures of the cues that will come from this thread.
Custom full splice. !!!! KEWL !!!

Graciocues, would you be willing to share your code and show pictures or share procedures.

Jim.
 
Sure, Mine might work for some if Lee's doesn't. Mine will work with or without a 4th axis. For some it might be better.
I took the weekend off to play a pool tournament and need to catch up on a couple things. I'll post it soon.
I saved Lee's and can't wait to try it.
 
Lee,
Is the Breeze CNC working x-axis long enough to accommodate this program? Would I use less than the 4 inches of waste length? Thanks for sharing this program and I look forward to the other end program some day.

Just curious, what cutter are you using and how are you squaring the bottom of the prongs? I cannot see any radius in the pictures.

Aw shucks...Beat me to it!
 
It says he is using a 1/16 bit, I would think if you cut a block of wood to fit and put a little sandpaper on it then you would lightly sand the last little part of it in, when i spoke to Lee about doing this, I also suggested you could make a little block up that would allow you to lightly sand to a sharp point ,
Thats my .02 for what it's worth

Files

I have some small files that would probably work good for squaring off the last little bit...now all I need is a cnc:(

It would be easy to square up the bottom on a band saw. I am curious about his 1/16th cutter. Where did he find one that would cut to that depth?

Same thing that I've been wondering about since I first read Lee's post. End mills usually cut 3 times their width witch would come to around .200. Double that and you only get .400 depth of cut. Apparently, either I'm not understanding how these go together or Lee posted the wrong end mill size.

By the way Matta, I tried the glue you recommended and it worked great. Thanks.

Maybe I'm just dense, but the g-code looks like z is plunging to -.600 and the bit looks like it runs out of gas at .310. What am I missing?

Hi Lee , 140 DIA. mean 140mm or 140 inch??

thanks
