OK so I decided to use a Christmas gift as an excuse to try out a complex V-carved inlay. A jewelry chest for my wife.
Holy #%%$#... this method works well. I was incredibly surprised how...
Just took an intro to Fusion 360 offered by an autodesk Education rep. (2 day course)
It does seem powerful as it includes not only modeling but machining output as well. Nicely integrated. I...

yup, old school is to use paper (thermal paper i.e. receipt is almost universally ~ 2 thou) set your increment to a thou and edge up till the shank of the bit (not spinning) compresses the paper, z...

yeah I hear you. FB is not my favorite form of communication either but it is the choice of the supplier for their non-media outreach.
and to answer questions;
I used Watco Danish oil on it (about as easy and inert as they come)
I haven't seen any signs of twisting or warping as of yet, but the again this piece is only a...
Howdy friends, shameless self promotion here.
OK, so the piece got entered in a facebook contest with cali-bamboo for their "project of the month". If you have a moment, and feel so inclined,...
David, if you go to an art supply house they have a little gizmo for getting all the paint out of artist's tubes. Some of those paints are expensive...
Mark, I used the carbonized vertical 3/4, but any would work, just depends on the effect you want.
