X-Carve Bump Stops, Bit Board Fail, & Lessons Learned
X-Carve Bump Stops, Bit Board Fail, & Lessons Learned
?In this video I made some bump Stops inspired by two different content creators. Paw Paws workshop https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YB4C5mqhYbU and Downeast Thunder Creations https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vo8aJh5IZOE. I then had a failed attempt at making a new bit board, however, I learned some lessons in this video on what not to do and some other tips and tricks
In this video, I made a sacrificial waste board to protect my Inventables waste board when cutting through the material.

?In this Video, I made a spindle lock so I do not constantly have to hold down the yellow button while tightening or loosening my bit. I also made a second waste-board square which will be great for an adjustable makeshift jig.

Making a Bit-Board | X-Carve
in this video, I had to make another bit board due to not having the X-Carve calibrated. This video shows how I was able to fix the dogbone cuts I was getting with my last bitboard in the previous video.
