1/4 slots in MPC ended up being cut 5/16

[cntbill]

Just want to say THANKS to All for your replies and suggestions, sorry I haven't updated my progress sooner, but didn't get back to this project till a couple of days ago.

One of the things I ended up doing was using the 1/8" cutting bit instead of the carving bit and setting the grid size to 1/8" which helped as well for placement.

Attached is the final mpc just in case you would like to take a look.

Thanks again,

Bill....

Hi Bill,

Glad you got that worked out. Your MPC looks great - very nice project!

I don't know if you already viewed the Tips & Tricks JAN 2011 video (link below), but it is geared for exactly this type of application.

Michael,

Thanks! That would have been the perfect tutorial for me to have watched before I started my project... very well done. Wow what I learned watching that would have saved me so much time... kick myself in the butt for not watching it sooner and now I have more ideas...lol I watched some of the tutorials and leaned quite a bit. I feel like a fool I didn't watch this sooner as I misunderstood the term pocket cuts, I was thinking "pocket cuts" were for joining using a biscuit cutter and biscuits... Little by little I am learning. Thanks again!
