Makera Cam - Combine work across faces
Very new to CNC work!
I'm making some cuts to hold dice in place. The pockets cut fine... it works and gives me the end result I want. But I can either do inside edges and get left with tiny strips along each pocket edge, or do outside edge and get a bunch of wasted work as the bit cuts areas that were already cut. It also just spends a load of time inefficiently moving around between cuts.
For something like this, is there anyways to have the entire part cut out at the same time instead of treating each face as an individual pocket? Or is pocket just not the correct option?
Everything works, it just feels incredibly inefficient and probably takes twice as long to cut as it could.
I wondered whether a 3D contour might be correct... it almost seemed like it would do what I wanted but I wasn't sure.
