I engraved!

Post by stoughto »

Onefinity machine installed, and after downloading a font file and using the vcarve path, I managed to engrave something. Need to play with the depth, feed rate, material, size, and ....

Congratulations, it looks awesome.
For my part I try to engrave different texts and patterns on a flat surface but in 3d printing, with the same bevel rendering

(I'm not looking for this rendering :

I am using this tutorial:
wiki.freecadweb.org/Path_Vcarve/en
I managed to follow the procedure until I got Face <number>
I can't seem to get a solid printable.

Is it possible to get this rendering, with the Vcarve workshop, with an other workshop ?
Should i post my question somewhere else ?

Beyond my capabilities! I'm tearing things down (routing) and you are building things up (3d printing) so different expertise is needed.
