In this video, I’ll finally address a question I get quite often. That is, the difference between setting the Z zero position to the material surface and setting it to the machine bed. First I’ll show you the file I created in Vectric Aspire to 3D carve two barn stars – one with the Z zero position on the machine bed, and the other with it on the material surface. I’ll then briefly show you the toolpaths for each of the stars. Then I’ll show you how I carved each one of them out of a piece of material, and the issues I had along the way. Then I’ll tell you what my primary issue was, and how I corrected it.

Finally, I’ll summarize the entire process and discuss when each setup is appropriate, or not, as the case may be.

As usual, if you have any comments or questions about anything I covered in this video, please join me for the Live Q&A, or put ‘em in the comment section below.

On Sunday, April 9th, I’ll be hosting a LIVE Q&A session, where you can ask your questions pertaining to anything I’ve covered in this video. That Q&A starts at 3 pm Eastern time, Noon Pacific time. Hope to see you there!
