Red Box around work

1

I have a red box around my work display on Easel. Is it a warning?

In Inventables Easel, a red area (often appearing as boxes or highlights in the preview) typically indicates uncut areas where your selected bit is too large to fit. [1, 2]

:police_car_light: Key Meaning: Bit Compatibility Issue
The software is alerting you that the diameter of the current carving bit cannot reach specific parts of your design. This most commonly occurs in: [1, 2]

  • Tight Corners: The radius of an end mill cannot make sharp 90-degree internal turns.

  • Intricate Details: Small text or narrow gaps in a “Fill” or “Pocket” cut that are smaller than the bit diameter.

  • Uncut Regions: Areas that will be left as “islands” or raw material because the bit is physically blocked by the design’s geometry. [1, 2, 3]
