A paddle-shaped serving board with a juice groove, three fluted grips on the handle, a hanging hole and a rounded-over edge cut with a form tool before the tabbed cut-out. 420 x 220 x 20 mm. Shows the Fluting and Edge Form toolpaths.
One of the example projects that come with Carvio: the free trial opens it, and a licence lets you save your own files, G-code and jobs. Open it, look at how each toolpath is set up, then change it into your own.
Tools, speeds and feeds are examples. They were chosen so the preview looks right, not for any machine or material: pick your own tools and rates before you cut (the project notes say the same).

Project notes
Serving board
A paddle board, 420 x 220 mm in 20 mm hardwood.
- Juice groove: a Profile toolpath on the line of the rounded rectangle with a 6 mm ball nose, 4 mm deep, ramping in.
- Handle flutes: three open curves on the handle cut with the Fluting toolpath; the 6 mm ball nose ramps in and out of each flute over 12 mm.
- Hanging hole: a 12 mm hole pocketed right through.
- Round over edge: the Edge Form toolpath runs the Round-Over 6.35mm radius form tool round the outline before the board is cut free, so the whole top edge is rounded.
- Cut out board frees the board with six tabs. The outline is a single smooth closed curve; move its nodes with the node editor to change the shape.
Tools, speeds and feeds are examples
The tools, feed rates, plunge rates, spindle speeds and pass depths in this project are examples only. They were chosen so the toolpaths look right in the preview, not for any particular machine or material. Before you cut, open each toolpath, pick a tool from your own Tool Database and set the rates your machine and material need. Check the material size and thickness in Job Setup too, and the post processor in Save Toolpaths.
Tools used
- Ball Nose 6mm · ⌀ 6
