Chad Moore - "Weekend CNC Warrior" Approved!

This fella's submitted project image has been posted on CNCminiProjects for a while now.  Chad was the very first to send us a finished project using our Mother's Garden No.1 mini-project.

 Wow... what a great job!  This is what Chad had to say about the project:

mother's garden project.jpg

"I am very pleased with the Mothers garden project. I finished a model patterned after the example on your project sheet." 

"I used select pine for the wood, size is around 11x10 inches in size, with a 1/4 ball-nose for roughing and a 0.051 ball-nose for finish with a 0.01 step-over. I used a minwax stain to bring out the color."

"My cnc router is a home-built that I have made, and I use Mack3 and DeskProto for my software."

Thanks again Chad for all the great picture and comments.  Consider yourself...  Weekend CNC Warrior Approved! 

We love to hear from our customers so if you have created a project with one of our mini-projects feel free to send us an image or two!  We want to see it and we will be sure to post it here in our blog: if you let us.

Thanks for reading... and if you made it this far please leave a comment!  

Happy and Safe CNC'ing!!!!

 

Out in the wild! ArtCAM 2013 UG Meeting!

We are busy getting a couple of USB Drive Boxes ready for the ArtCAM 2013 User Group meeting. They will be given away as door prizes!!!!

 Each box will Contain a usb drive and a be pre-loaded with a mini-project from CNCminiProjects.com  One will contain the Western Saloon No.1 mini-project and the other will contain the Rose Tile mini-project.  Both projects are perfect addition to your CNC model library and can be used for anything from signs to 3D printed jewelry.  

If you will be at the meeting keep an eye out for them!

Be sure to pick up an official Weekend CNC Warrior sticker. When you get back to the shop, after the meeting, snap a picture of your CNC with the sticker in the pic an email it to us to be put in a draw for a free mini-project! 

Sorry we won't be there... but we hope these will make up for it!!!

Be safe...

Spreading the word - Indiana Rob’s 3D Sign Workshop

CNCminiProjects is very happy to be a very small part of Indiana Rob’s 3D Sign Workshop this year.  The infamous Indiana Rob himself asked us if we were willing to give a little something to be raffled away to a lucky student... and this is what we came up with:

We hand made 2 small boxes that had one of our models CNC on the top - The boot from the Western Saloon mini-project and the rose from the Rose Tile mini-project. 

The top of the box swiveled open to reveal a USB drive.  On the drive was the full mini-project that the model on the box top was taken from.   

Not a bad little prize... EH! 

We also sent along a few stickers for the students to take home.  We are hoping that we might get a few pictures of the students, a sticker and their own CNC machine.  If we do we will put them in a draw for another free mini-project! 

On top of that we issued a $5.00 discount code to be used on a mini-project purchase by the months end.  The discount code was placed on the back of our brand new business cards... for easy reference! 

From what we have heard the 3D Sign Camp was a hit... lots learn't and some great techniques shared. 

As you can see on their web site plans are in the works for the 2014 event... these guys don't let the chips settle!  

Good job Indiana Rob!!!!  

You are defiantly "Weekend CNC Warrior" approved!
