I have been practicing designing small projects in Easel. However, when I try adding a detail bit to the equation it becomes the primary bit. Simply put it over rides the rough out bit and changes my design.
Example; I’m trying to make a simple home square that will be screwed down to the waste board. So I have a 1/8" bit cutting out the piece and the holes, and just to add a personal touch I added the word home to the surface to be cut 1/16" deep with the 60* v bit. When I do it shows the entire piece as being done with the v bit.
I looked at other posts but have not seen what I’m trying to describe. Is this something I’m missing ?
I did see another one of your post showing to have a second work space set up. Is this the only way?
I would think that the rough bit would cut out the piece and then carve the finer detail such as lettering.
Ohhh, i understand now i thought you were having the ENTIRE workpiece being done with the V bit, but you are having the Details of the entire design being done with the V bit… it makes more sense after re-reading it… ,
Yes, you’d need to use a multi workpiece setup in order to control which bits go where.
