A few Little project with pictures

[ardsranger]

I was not sure where to post should to in the forum, If it is in wrong spot im sorry

I just wanted to show a few crafts i have been using my DYI mill for.
I hope that you enjoy them.

Here is a Front and side view of this item. The staining was done in a 3 pass application. The stain changes color based on angle it is viewed, Kind of like a candy apple care.

I love this piece, i hated to sell it , size is 16 by 23 inchs its so pretty but was a special order and it had to go..
I may cut another very soon for my home.






This was a gift. I crafted it from a photo of her baby in this hamick , it was a fun project, convert photo to black and white, move photo to vectors, extrude the shape for 3d then generate the gcode.



Thorphies size 5 x 7.5 inchs produced for kiddos, The coach provides the graphic and the text and we produce them for the kiddo, we don't make much on these but THEY ARE FOR THE KIDS, funny 13.00 each. ( i love kids and i really want them to have a nice reward) i started these because I as tried of my son getting the same old plastic junk trophies for $10-$13.00


This was a custom order as well its pretty cool, the bottom / back side is under cut .300 inch to attach a cork board. Great to hang in hope to put all the those pics of kiddos / grandkids. have Done one kindo of like it for a pet owner.



What can I say i just love horses




This one that some one suggested to me 13 inches round with the 1st grade silhouette that all the kids do for their parents. did it for sub 20.00 cut

All great projects, but I really like the Last Supper. More details please, such as what kind and size of bit, as well as speed.

By the way, I'm surprised there hasn't been a thread on here showing off the projects that have been made with these machines.

Really beautiful work. What software are you using?
You can see a lot of love in your designs.
Great Job.

i use Aspire for the art
other software used is Adobe Illustrator/Photoshop for preparing images,
I prefer production software Solidworks for doing profile cuts and some other detail cuts in the models.


If you have any graphis, texts, or logo's text etc... let me know. I would be glad to generate the gcode if you need.
Art software is kinda high.

Nice machine and some very nice work!
Thanks for posting.

[johnmac]

Not only is art software kinda high, but you gotta know how to use it, too!

Nice work. Nice offer, too!

Yeah, I looked at Aspire and decided since it cost more than my router, then I'd have to pass. I would love to have the code for the last supper but I know it's one of your commercial items. However, I will not hesitate to ask for a copy of the picture you used for creating your art! I have bobart and hopefully, I can pull enough detail out to try my hand at one of those carvings. It will be for my mom and not a sell item. (wish I were good enough to sell some of my work) Thakns for sharing. I do so love this forum!

you can buy that file from vectorart3d and use their free v3m machinist software to cut it...
