I want to sculpt Veria White Marble with CNC milling and carving tools. What size do you recommend?
The size of the CNC milling and carving tools for sculpting Veria White Marble depends on the level of detail you want to achieve and the scale of your sculpture.

A diameter of 3mm (0.12 inches) to 8mm (0.3 inches) works well for intricate work, such as adding texture or refining edges. 3. V-bit carving tool: If you want to incorporate intricate designs, text, or shallow relief carvings, using a V-bit carving tool with various angles (30°, 60°, or 90°) is recommended. These tools can create crisp lines and smooth curves. Remember, the size and type of tools may vary based on the specific design, depth of cut, and your personal preference. It is always a good idea to experiment and test on a small sample first before proceeding with your final sculpture.
