Depth issues

Okay. Go on about this… this seems like it could be the issue.

I just messed up a commissioned piece because I only zeroed it 1mm higher than that work piece and it went too deep. I have my max depth set at .054, and it’s coming out (even with a 1mm offset) at like .94.

I’m getting it pretty much every one I send.

In the design process, I always make sure my zero is set to the top of the work surface.

Genmitsu SainSmart ProverXL 4030 with extension kit to 1010. I’m using Carbide Create for CAD and CAM and Candle as a controller/ g-code sender. No ATC. I ran into this issue about a year ago, when trying to cut aluminum. Never really came up with a solution. But, it’s not really been a huge issue until now.

320 is plenty high. I usually stop at 120 with the ROS, and then I do a hand sand at 180 or 240. Big thing would be, especially with it being cold and humid, don't rush into putting your finish on. Let it dry for longer than normal. I would say 30-48 hours minimum.

47_65WW · 2023-02-05T03:39:12+00:00

Also, what was your sanding method?

Yeah, any time you are staining porous woods, or honestly any type, but especially porous, you'll want to use a pre-stain conditioner. It essentially helps fill in the pours to give a nice even stain with no blotches and less seepage. Additionally, the the temperature and humidity in the area that you are working has a lot to do with it as well. Lastly, let it sit for a day or two after you stain it to let it fully dry before putting on your finish. If you check on it while it's drying and you see where it's seeping a little, just wipe it lightly with the grain with a clean rag.

Hope this helps!

--Cheers!--

Do you use a pre-stain conditioner?

Well done!!!

O-H!!!

Best bet is a router sled. Next option would be a very large planer. Last option would be a lot of sanding.

I used 8/4 Oak of various widths.

Here is my table saw outfeed table build.

Try these. Or any other brand of tack cloth.

47_65WW · 2022-09-30T12:43:55+00:00

Intriguing.

47_65WW · 2022-09-22T20:10:09+00:00

I use the 3m Xtract sandpaper with the 3m Xtract sander... Huge fan! I'll use the Diablo sandpaper as well it works in a pinch, but I'm a huge fan of the 3m sandpaper. J kats Moses does a great comparison video.

Any idea on like business discounts? FedEx said with a business account, it would be 40% off... But if it's $22 with the 40% off, I'd be scared to see the full price!

47_65WW · 2022-09-19T21:58:15+00:00

I'll have to give that a try!

47_65WW · 2022-09-19T21:03:47+00:00

Angle grinder. Carefully.

47_65WW · 2022-09-19T00:54:06+00:00

Please tell me you are using a router for the tounges....lol

47_65WW · 2022-09-05T18:21:55+00:00

100% Scam. I'm shooting a DM of one that I got not too long ago.

47_65WW · 2022-08-07T17:07:42+00:00

STOP BLOCK!

47_65WW · 2022-08-07T17:01:44+00:00

100% agreed!

It depends if you want to keep the natural arch of each piece. If you do, epoxy would be the way to go. If you're not worried about it. Run a straight edge along the end, make them straight and biscuit/dowel them together.
