This looks spectacular!
These are some of the biggest pockets that I’ve seen anyone do:
I love the way it came out!
Edit: I got so excited about the project that I forgot the question. I’m using these bits 1/4 Inch Two Flute Up Spiral Router Bit – Maslow CNC
I have ordered some 4mm 2 flute. Also got a hold of some used 6mm 3 flute ones. Discarded from a CNC company because of “statistical end of life“ for their use, but they seem plenty sharp for my use.

It didn’t actually hit me that the size of the pockets could be a problem until I had gotten well into the cut and remembered that The Armadillo needed some footing. Fortunately it went well over expectations 
I think it’s close to the limit unless we extend the diameter of the sled or add some kind of support.
These are awesome!!! What type of wood is that?
It’s just 1/2” sanded pine plywood from Home Depot
Here is the most recent. 416th Aircraft Maintenance Unit. So shiney you can see a reflection in the epoxy.
First project with the Maslow, I designed a product stand for my shop. It still needs a stain to make it look nice but I think it came out quite good 
These are both fantastic!
We’ll have to get the project contest up and running again for the next update
Cool things. What is your workflow to get the designs? What programs do you use? Do you draw your own svg files?
I use Carbide Create v6 to create the gcode.
It has an import function for svgs and png/jpgs and a limited design feature.
If I can’t clean it up enough with the built in import. I will use Inkscape to trace bitmap and fine tune the image and save as svg. Then import it into Carbide Create to assign cut paths and pockets.
After I create gcode, I send it through Lee’s gCodeClean (you can find a link on the forums) to clean up the gcode and minimize traveling.
Cool. Thank you. I didn’t know about code clean, that looks useful.
