I having a problem with the X movement on my m3. I'm doing a 3/4" deep pocket at 1/16 intervals. The first couple of passes are perfect but the deeper it goes the shorter the X movement gets towards the home side of the machine. It was also doing it on a profile cut as well but on the profile the cut can also get longer. Pictures attached. Any idea why I got one good piece and now this problem is occurring?

Found a solution, somewhat. I'm using Cut 2D desktop. Instead of outputting all toolpaths that use the same bit I did them individually. Seems to have solved the problem.

Not sure why it worked out like that but I'll take it. I'm really new to cnc and I have a lot to learn. I'm sure some day I'll know why. I'm getting good, accurate parts, though. Attachment DeletedAttachment Deleted |

Big man black T shirt! Your videos helped immensely when I was putting my m3 together! Thank you! Those are pickup covers and the body for my bass bridge design. I build custom bass guitars and make a lot of my own parts. Until now I've made them with handheld router setups and a lot of hand work and sometimes to get things as accurate as I want I'd have to make a few to get one good one.

Cool, can you post some photos of them in a guitar? Glad my videos helped you!

Sure. This is the finished bridge in a different bass. My tail piece where the strings anchor has been redesigned but this is a good example of the bridge in action. It allows 4 ways of adjustment: the whole bridge can go up and down, the spacing between strings can be adjusted, the intonation can be adjusted and individual strings can be raised up and down.   |

Looks cool. There are a few luthiers in the forum so more pics of the completed instruments would be nice to see.

Very cool! CNC will be a big help to you I bet. Thanks for the pics! |
