Hack of the Week No.91

Wallet sized picture frame layout.

This layout would be perfect for displaying a treasured vacation picture or a tropical holiday selfie. This layout was designed to hold a wallet sized photo but could be sized to hold a 4x6 or larger memory!

This "Tropical Holiday" picture frame was created using models from these projects:

We did not use any fonts on this layout but the detail line of the surfboard is a simulated v-carved line.

Note - This hack was assembled in Aspire V8 for presentation purposes.  It could have been done in VCarve Pro V8 or VCarve Desktop.

Why not hack together your own layout mixing and matching models from other projects or from your own library!  For some great inspiration check out our  hacks page!

Holiday signs from Don

As always Don Harding has been busy creating some great looking projects in his shop.  Over the past few weeks he has sent in a few different variations on holiday signs using the mold board from the Home for the Holidays No.5 CNC project.

Love the finish on these.  The paint on the holly and in the letters really makes them pop!  His choice of wood could not be better... they look great!

 

 

The magic key sign is Don's take on Rebecca's Magic Key project.  If you have not seen it yet her post on the Vectric Labs blog is a great read and very helpful if you would like to make your own.

We could not help but post this one.  Its simple V-Carving but the finish and saying makes us smile!

Thanks again Don for sharing these great projects!
