Get started with learning Designer here! This video walks you through the Designer user interface with a brief explanation of what everything is.

This tutorial covers the basics of laying out a simple project to get familiar with the user interface and essential tools.

This tutorial expands on the project in part 1 by adding a background and learning about project optimization.

This video covers how to design a basic sign and optimize it for carving.

Bit Optimization sets the limit with which the bit carves into tight areas to preserve the top level detail.

Draft sets an angle from the outer top edge of raised carvings out to the base of the carving. It is primarily used to reduce chip-out issues.

The Centerline Text feature adds an additional Rout Mode in the Text Tool feature. This feature uses the 60° and 90° V-groove bits to follow the center of the letters…

The Extrude tool allows a profile to be extruded along the inside of a closed vector shape. The angle of the extrusion can be adjusted by setting horizontal, vertical, or…

The Sweep tools will allow a drawn profile to be swept along a single vector path. This means the profile will follow the line along it’s entire length. There are…

The Tilt Tool, available in the Modeling Suite, allows a pattern to be tilted vertically, horizontally, or a combination of both can be used to achieve different angles.

The Revolve Tool, available in the Modeling Suite, allows for defining a profile and revolving that profile shape around a circle.

The Puffing Tools, available in the Modeling Suite, are useful 3D modeling tools for quickly defining dimension to drawn shapes.
