Stuff made with CamBam

I think it is time we had a thread for displaying Stuff made with CamBam. There are a lot of options out there for g-code generation, but in terms of bang for buck (for me at least) CamBam is the bee's knees.

I'll kick off with a small project that used pocketing and profiling, generated from a dxf file. The full story can be had here: http://www.cnczone.com/forums/showpo...&postcount=139 .

The zipfile contains the CamBam files and the g-code files generated from the cb files. X0 and Y0 are bottom left, Z0 is top of the material.

The side pieces are cut from 1/4" material, the tops and bottoms are cut from 1/8" material. Everything is cut with a 1/8" end mill.

Joe's 4X4 Hybrid

Over a period of a month or 2, I built a Joe's 4X4 Hybrid. All of the g-code was generated using CamBam.

Heart Shaped Box

OK, so it's not high art, but I just made this snap together wooden box using the latest 'Death Wish!' development release, soon to be 0.9.4 release.

I can see this release is gonna get me out of a whole heap of trouble...I've already missed an anniversary present....

Speaking of presents, I built this for my wife's birthday. I did not have a jigsaw to cut the curve on the top rail, so I used CamBam and my Joe's 4x4.

Given the choice of buying knobs for a couple $$ each or spending 1/2 a day making my own, I opted for the latter. The knobs are made up of 2 pieces pulled together with a nut and bolt. The curved top surface is courtesy of Evan's Spiral PollyGone script, which can be found here:

Bertram,

Great job, & idea!

Now anytime you need a new one you just run them on your cnc, or re-scale the size to whatever you need.

Plus you never have to wait on shipping.

Very smart.
