I've wanted to try making v-carve inlay cutting boards for a while but my Genmitsu 4040 Pro CNC router just wasn't up to the task. Once I realized there was an updated XZ axis I contacted the company and was sent a replacement that made the machine much more rigid and accurate.
So, with the CNC running better I decided to throw another curve and make the switch from Carveco Maker to Vectric V-Carve and take another shot at inlays. How did they turn out? Well, you'll have to watch the video to find out.
