Definition

on V-Grooves Definition

The Outside Rotation controls for Swoopsor Flareson the outside cut on non-oval V-Grooves.

Because this is a V-Groove, you will be using either the Outside Rotation or the Inside Rotation, based on which V-Groove line you are editing.

  • The first cut is the interior V-Groove line and cut into the V-Groove fallout and not the matboard, and is cut in a clockwise direction. This uses the Inside Rotation.

  • The second cut is the exterior V-Groove line and cut into the matboard and not on the V-Groove fallout, and is cut in a counter-clockwise direction. This uses the Outside Rotation.
