Trying to carve an LOTR chess set. Most of the pieces carve just great, but then I get to the piece below which is off-center and has an extended hand. This is causing all sorts of havoc, including “dead space” that doesn’t carve. Can anyone suggest a workaround?
@jason.pollick Welcome to the group, Jason. I would strongly suggest that you post your .crv file and your question to the Vectric forum. There are a couple of rotary experts there who may have a solution.
That said, you may well get advice here, too. Unfortunately, this one is way beyond my meager rotary abilities.
Hey @jason.pollick,
Sounds like you are experiencing some overhang, which is an inherent limitation for the Vortex. You can read a bit more about it HERE. You can play with the orientation of the model a bit to eliminate as much as possible, but you may have to devise another plan to remove the excess under the arm.
Good luck!
Stephen
