OK, I know this topic has been addressed a few times before, but my Google-fu is not working for me.

At Christmas I tried to make some v-inlay cutting boards for the family. The bits I used were either dull or didn't have a fine point. Between using the wrong angle toolpath, a dull bit, slack in one of the axii's on the Budddy, and other issues, I put them on the backburner. It's now time to figure this problem out.

I followed the tutorial for the V-Inlay and I've done it before with perfect results. This time, no luck and I can't quite seem to figure out the problem. One problem I'm having is with the inlay material bottoming out before the shoulders pull up tight. Also I'm not happy with the specific Freud bit I used. I think I fixed the play in the table driver.

If anyone could tell me what bit has given them good results I'd appreciate it, and I'd love specific tool path depth settings.

Thanks,
Blaine

Do you think this is appropriate for a cutting board?
