Polishing tools

[RDot604]

I jus got a 7 piece set of GDI polishing tools for 1.25" thick material. When i use these tools, the finish is not as smooth as it should be. I was wondering how i can maximize the performance of these tools and how i can make the finish not so bumpy as an end product...I am usin mastercam X2. thanks....

Well, im sure is the same thing as smoothing the sides....I do that first B4 i polish it anyways. I need a good base B4 i polish..

what are you cutting?

[RDot604]

Im cuttin 1 1/4" thick manmade material called Aosta. Its very hard and doesnt chip easy. I cut it fine, but the finished product is lumpy. If u run your hands along the side after the polish, it feels bumpy a little. Also, if u look at it in the light, theres light scratches going along the toolpath, but u cant feel them.

What is the shape of your part? Does the geometry contain any splines?

[RDot604]

Its jus a bunch of straight lines...Rectangular shape. NO splines....Jus regular lines
