After the Hinge order getting messed up at least twice by each myself, the supplier, and the distributor to the supplier, I finally finished this up. He wants another one. The only thing is, I have...

The cribbage board I made scored me a meeting with the person in charge of of purchasing furniture and signs for a company that runs several assisted living facilities! Thanks again! I will get...

Thanks Don - if I remember correctly, I might have tried that. I will have to look back to my file and see. Now that I think of it, I'm not quite sure what I did.

Also - We made an elephant...

I made 3 of these for my 2 year old daughter. I think you can fit 5 on a sheet of plywood. I eventually tried this on pre-finished 3/4" Birch plywood using a compression bit. This is my first...

Hi - I hope you don't mind - I used your design to make a sample cribbage board for a potential customer. I'm a contractor looking at a really large job for an assisted living facility. I'm going...

This is a little late - but I don't recall using photoshop to crop the photo into an oval. I believe I drew an Oval vector and used it as a boundary in Aspire. If you didn't figure it out yet, I...

Another cabinet that I did earlier in the year. I'm not a cabinet builder really - but ever since the shopbot, I've tried to go the extra step when building them. This was part of the bathroom...

Thanks. I forgot to mention that the ShopBot was super helpful in making the maple cover around the dimmer switch. I tried first doing it with a jigsaw. After about 5 minutes of making bad cuts, I...

My neighbors own a restaurant and asked me to make them a cabinet to display their Tequila. They speak Spanish, and I understand about 50% of what they are saying, so I just went with what I thought...

My husband and I are super excited to meet and talk with everyone on Saturday! See you all then!

Me and my husband would love to come to this in September!!!!

- We would love to learn more about finishing, specially "gold" finishes. Also more on how to figure out to set the routers RPMs...

Melissa this is awesome! How and what do you use for paint to get that kind of finish? Also, did you start the rose from 3" sign foam? So awesome! Your my idol!

Hello,
I was making a board for a quick christmas present, and wasn't sure how big to make the holes. Any suggestions would be great! Thanks.
Lindsay

This is great! Thank you guys! MUCH appreciated. I am going to get the brass color and repaint where I painted before. I will just use the old gold color as my base for this. Thank you thank you!!

Hello,
So I am new at sign making and CNC machining all together. I have been using Sign painters 1 Shot Lettering Enamel 109-L Metallic Gold that a local art supply store told me I should use,...

Thanks guys- We suspect the bit moved in the collet when I zeroed it. I found out after talking to Shop Bot that I wasn't putting my collet in to the collet nut and hearing a snap. So we think that...

Hello,
I currently just finished a sign I did in Aspire. It is a simple sign with a persons name on it. 10x23". The toolpath I used was a V-Carve/ Engraving Toolpath. The V Tool I used was a 60...

We imported the photo in Photoshop and then put a mask around it to hide what we didn't want to cut. Then saved it as is and imported it to our PhotoVCarve program.

The sign is out of Maple, and the finish was sanding sealer and then gel stain. We read how to do this somewhere on this forum if you want more detail on how to do, Ryan can find that forum.

I was on here looking for ideas on what wood to use to make one of these for my mother and her bf for xmas and so glad I found this! Thank you for sharing.

Thank you everyone. It was a LONG drawn out process considering this was the first time I EVER did anything like this before. The frog was supplied by customer from a jpg. But from that jpg I was...

Here is a 3D carving I did from a logo supplied by the client that I carved out of HDU. This was an 11 hour carving because I didn't want to do any sanding.

Here is a photo vcarve my husband did for a customer after they finished their renovations to their home and moved in.

Here is a 3D tooth I made (a little butt and all!) and the welcome sign for a local dentists office. The teeth and frog are 3D. I designed the tooth myself, but the frog was from a simple .jpg the...

Hello,
I am carving out a sign in PVC and was wondering what the best speeds are for doing so, so the PVC does "pill" per say. I am also doing a small 3D carve in PVC and was wondering the what...
