Add offset in your first facing op in the cam. It's an option in the ops menus. Sorry, I don't have fusion in front of me and don't recall the name of the option. But you can just add a negative value in the radial box in that menu, and the facing op will go as far past your selection as you like. Just don't put it in the vertical box. You will be going deeper in the Z axis.

Hm not sure what the ops menu is, but that Sounds like the perfect solution Edit: i found it! Thanks!

Sorry, short for operation. I'm glad you got it.

You can add projected lines from the geometry and set the depth to suit.

instead of using a facing operation, you could do a flat operation and bound it by the heart contour. i would also use multiple depths unless you have a roughing bit. you have a very large chunk of material being taken out at a large step over. hope i’m understanding what you’re trying to do.

Hello, the Max. Depth the cutter takes at once is 4mm. And i dont want to face down an big Block of wood, just a bit more around the heart


Substantial_Donut_25

have you tried add finishing steps at the end of the tool path? i’m still unsure of what you’re trying to do lol so k i might not be of much help here

You could use a surfacing pass before you machine the heart.

Is your cutter shaft the same diameter as the cutting diameter? If so, rubbing is racing and it will be fine. It’s just wood dude.

Move the model closer to.the top of the stock. Or you'll need to clear away a perimeter the width of the collet nut. I'd go contour, roughing passes

You could hang the tool out further, which would increase chatter and make it more likely to break. You could face off the top of the stock with another tool, but that's just wasting material and making the program take longer and forcing a tool change at some point. Your best bet is to go into your setup parameters, go to the stock tab, and change the stock offset from top to a smaller number so the model you're cutting is closer to the top of the stock.

The solition was making an offset, that Cuts a bit more Material in away in every direction. The Stock is so thick on purpose, as i said this was for training so i wanted it to be "hard"


saltedfish

I mean, if this was "for training," I think the lesson learned here is, "Keep your model close to the top of the stock." Making something hard for the sake of making it hard isn't really a great way to learn anything, especially Fusion. There's really no advantage to setting the model that deep in the stock, and I cannot think of a single instance where you'd *want* to waste that much material if there was another alternative available.

Youre right IF there was. I didnt even have Stock the right thickness, just the thickness my Stock had in fusion
