Trial run for a memorial plaque for my wife's grave. JPG converted to low relief (STL) using blender. Slate machined on my Workbee (upgraded with...
As @Giarc and @Misterg said. You do need to set the workplace coordinate system zero (set XYZ) in the same place on your workpiece as you set the...
The T6 bit means it has been tempered to make it more machineable, but you shouldn't have much trouble with 6061. Are you seeing any signs of the...
1st question - what alloy? They are not all machineable. I use 6082T6 or 6061T6. On a workbee with V-wheels I used 10~13 K rpm, 3 mm single flute...
With the power off, disconnect the Z motor. Make sure wires can't touch if they are not in a connector plug. Power on and try X and Y axes. If...

See Problem with tool chatter only on one side along the Y. The first thing I would check is the eccentrics on the X and Z axes, but could also...
Are you pressing "set Z" after the probe routine? If so, don't - the probe routine sets the Z zero. Alex.
Try reducing feedrate, and definitely try conventional instead of climb. These tests will give us clues about what might be causing this. Ideally...
What are your speeds, feeds and depth of cut? Have you tried conventional rather than climb milling? If so did you still get chatter? Alex.
