Create CNC Tool Paths
Budget: $10 – $30 CAD
Hey guys,
I'm posting this project because I'm making a stupid mistake somewhere and it's making me crazy. This should be very, very simple for someone who knows how to set up machine paths for a CNC using Fusion 360.
Please read all the way to the end of my posting before bidding, and please request clarification about anything you'd like. My friend can do this work in 10-15 minutes, so please bid reasonably. :)
The job is to create tool paths 1) to drill all holes (already done, but please check to make sure I've set it up properly), and 2) create tool paths to remove all materials between bodies.
Notes:
1) I have attached the Fusion 360 file I am working with as well as the gcode I have been using (that isn't quite correct).
2) The gaps between bodies are all 6.35mm (1/4"), which matches the tool I am using (https://a.co/d/fGk42QP).
3) The width of the stock I am using matches the width of the bodies in the file (196.851mm / 7.75"), so no cutting is required except within the confines of the bodies in the file (see rough highlight in attached screenshot).
4) If it wasn't clear already, this is a 2.5D operation - I am only cutting out the bodies as shown - all resulting pieces should be 18mm thick - in other words, I don't want the thickness of the original material messed with. :)
Other considerations:
1) I am controlling the job using Openbuilds using an Inventables X-Controller, with a DeWalt DWP611.
2) The stock I am cutting is 18mm thick Baltic Birch.
3) Coolant should be disabled.
4) I THINK the feedrate should be around 525, but please let me know what you think.
3) Tabs should be included to keep the material steady.
Goals:
1) Setting feed rate, etc. to make cuts as fast as possible, but without damaging equipment or cutting stock.
Deliverables:
1) Editable Fusion360 file where I can review and edit.
2) gcode file using GRBL post processor found here: OpenBuilds/OpenBuilds-Fusion360-Postprocessor
3) helpful advice so I can do this myself next time. :D ...If you understand this stuff well, I will have plenty of other work for you!
Please, please, PLEASE - if you place a bid, do not change it after spending a lot of time talking to me. If you have questions, please ask!
Thanks so much!
