This is probably my finest work and as such I wanted to take you thru the process of creation.

I was asked by a local art appreciation group

called "Art In Place" to come up with an idea to

depict something that showcased several local

artists and their work. I took ideas from them

and added some of my own. As time wore on I

found myself starting, stopping, getting stuck,

getting brainstorms and slowly a theme emerged.


I found a new tool to work with in my set

aside "Pen Tablet" that I had trouble working.

As I got more used to it I found amazing things

coming to life on my computer screen in my

creative zeal to complete the task.

I hope you like it:

Hey Jack...
Dont suppose that you are willing to do an instruction booklet showing how you did this and send us some free files and show us how to use them.

Hmmm...... looks like your Z is erratic, might want to surface the spoilboard, check the x for square, and check Z for plumb, while you're at it. Oh yeah - stepover is too much.
Seems like I've been making a lot of those recently. Unpaid jobs, but at least no wear and tear on the 'Bot, and the bits stay sharper longer.

As per Garys request I put together a very detailed pdf document with drawing diagrams, toolpaths, along with detailed video instructions on how to set up the machine for this complex task on a instructional dvd. It comes in a kit with all the router bits needed. All you need to do is send me $50.00 via paypal from my website:
www.aprilfoolhascomeandpastyourethebiggestfoolatla st.COM (http://www.aprilfoolhascomeandpastyourethebiggestfoolatla st.COM)
add and extra $10.00 for priority shipping.

Jack,

I can't get the website to work! Can I just mail you the money?

I suggest you submit that to some museums.. you will probably get offered high dollar for your creativity. Perhaps that will be the best paying job this year! Next year you can submit the pile of sawdust left over from creating scrap. It will probably sell too..

Oh.. make lithophanes of these creations.. that should up the price some more!
