Joe McBryde is now "Weekend CNC Warrior" Approved!

We love it when a customer takes a project of ours and the takes it up a notch by hacking in a model from their own collection.  Joe did a great job laying out this project using the Pick-Up League Baseball project, one of his own models and then adding the gold for a real pop!

"Made from Sapele. 12” tall. Ribbon on bottom from personal collection. Made on Shopbot. Gold on letters is Guilder’s paste. Made for softball player at Queens College in Charlotte, North Carolina."

 

 

"These model packages are great for increasing design and modeling skills. Had more fun creating than I did making it. Thank you."

Thank you Joe for the great comments and also sharing your work with us!  We are pretty sure you hit a homerun with this one!!! 

Thank you Joe, again,  for sharing this project with us!

Kevin Kennedy is now "Weekend CNC Warrior" Approved!

When we came up with the Tiki bar CNC project idea we always felt it would end up in a basement bar or on a pool side sign... but never on something like this! 

``Here is a cowboy cooler I made and I used the Tiki Bar project to customize ``

``I started out making one of the coolers for myself and people loved them. I have made around 6 of them and now I personalize the tops. So I used the tiki bar pattern to do mine.``

We don't think the Tiki mask has ever looked so cool... get it... because it`s on a cooler... yeah we know that was a stretch. 

Kevin also sent us this wonderfully painted sign he made using the Wine Bar No.1 Project.  Nice job!

Both of Kevin projects look so good... and the cooler just makes us want to head out onto the back deck and enjoy a cold drink. There goes the productivity for today... thanks Kevin.

Thank you Kevin for sharing these projects with us!

Graham Burgess is now "Weekend CNC Warrior" Approved!

We are always touched when someone creates something special for a family member or friend using one of our CNC projects.  Something that will be cherished for a lifetime, given at a very special moment.  We never thought one of our halloween projects would show up at a wedding... but.. it has and it`s has never looked so good!

"Test run for ring box for my daughter’s wedding. She is having a Halloween theme``

Test Box

Finished boxes

``The finished ring boxes designed from Halloween 2. The slots for the rings will be cut when I have the correct size.``

Graham has also created this skull box using the same project.  Love the way the bottom fits... looks great!

``I have sourced some 150 year old silver pine used as mine props during the West Coast gold rush. I enclose another job I did with it to show the beautiful finish possible with this ancient wood.``

``I am using a home built router running chain drive with a footprint of about 27x27 inches ( I am old enough to think in imperial) Mach3, VCarve Pro, Cut3D, PhotoVCarve and a couple of others to help me create my own STLs``

Two great projects and that wood.... looks so great!!
