It is reall easy to change the nuber of points in a circel or arc in sketchup, right click and click on entity info. I usually up it by a factor of 10.
What speed do you do your inlay cuts?
A slice of pizza?
yeah, pizza is sort of my muse. Just to let you know how serious it is, here are some wood burnings i’ve done.
And you have also built a real pizza-oven? That’s on my to-do list
I cut some American flags this weekend for some family members. I still need to work on my Z axis as I still have some slope.
I cut this unicorn trinket box. While not very impressive or intricate as individual parts, when stacked its really amazing how close the repeated cuts are when you consider the size of the maslow
That is WOW. Are the pieces all cut at the same x/y coordinates on the sheet?
Sorry gero i dont know , I traced a unicorn image and placed 7 nested together in easel. I moved router to desired place hit define home and cut. Does that answer your question?
That answered my question and tells that you have the Maslow dialed in well. Thanks.
I really like the idea of this thread and how active it is. I’ve made a sign recently for my grandma who is a huge Detroit tigers fan. Could have turned out better but was in a rush.
Getting ready for x-mass my wife wanted a nativity scene for outside so this is what I came up with using img online IMG_2902|666x500
Looks good. What bit was that?
I made a T-Rex for my nephew but I wanted to give it on a box so I thought I could try to make a folded box out of alveolar polypropylene.
It came out OK but polypropylene is a tricky material to finish. Cuts come a bit rough and sanding doesn’t help much.
I like this a lot. Out of the box thinking
I haven’t cut it yet, and it may not work out, but I coded this tonight and with the amount of work it took I thought it was worth posting.
Cheers!
My latest project has been the Meticulous “Z” upgraded sled.
I added the hose clamps to the router connector pieces otherwise it was per the instructions provided.
Shout out to @MeticulousMaynard for helping me figure it out.
The most difficult part I experienced was getting my 3D printer to make the dust collector shroud and cutting the Lexan for the clear cover (was lower cost to make from Lexan than plexiglass).
If anyone needs a clear cover made, let me know I have enough material left to make two more. Let me know quickly or I am going to remove the templates (*) from the Lexan and place it in my stock for use on some future project.
(*) I printed the pattern out (1:1 scale) on paper then glued it to the protective plastic of the Lexan and cut the one I needed out. Was simple and could be cut our with a band saw. the single sheet of Lexan would allow me to make three (3) windows.
