This louvre work is getting popular.

Had to cut the slots from each side to reduce the splitting when the bit pushed out the other side.

Designed everything in VCarve Pro and the machine did the rest.

What's the material? Looks like stone but assume it isn't?

[Jason Marsha]

Its acrylic solid surface.

She absolutely loved it. She said its the first time anyone gave her anything like that.

OK... I'll have to look that up here, I've seen acrylic laminated with wood look finishes, but not stone, it looks cool.

Great finishing job, well done.

Cheers, Chris H.

Thanks Chris.

The original acrylic solid surface was DuPont Corian and since they are several big ones like Wilsonart solid surface, Samsung Staron, Swanstone, Avonite.

Video of decorative trimming cut.

8' trimming on a 5' machine.

Pictures of the trimming.

I was provided with a sample and had to match it.

Notice in the first pic the hangs off the back of the machine, while in the second pic the material is hanging off the front of the machine.

The indexing became more critical while cutting the edge profile which would stop halfway through the profile.

In the end I ran a single pass @ 19.05 mm (3/4") with a 1/4" up-spiral to cut the profile and the result was perfect.

Not my first choice for a decorative moulding but it is stronger than what was there before.
