Aluminum Carving Question

also noteworthy, that’s not a true V-bit. As you can see it’s asymmetric. that’s an engraving bit.
They work, but you need to compensate when zeroing.

short version: zero the usual way and then go slightly up. Then re-zero the Z. How much depends on the specific bit. It’s better to start off slightly too high obviously and work your way down until you know the sweet spot for that bit.
