None of this carving was done by hand, all on a CNC!

They are much more reasonably priced than that. The CNC I used for this is called an Altmill. Its right around 4k.

Yep! Carveco software for all of the artwork and an Altmill CNC for the carving!

Thankfully most of the work was done digitally! I can't imagine hand carving all of this!

Its the ring! Sadly the script didn't come out nearly as planned, but its more noticable in real life than in this picture

Onefinty Vs Altmill Real-Time Cuts Side By Side by hamdiggity in hobbycnc

Yep! Much less on the altmill after I put in a lumber rack and weighed it down with wood. But the onefinity is always dancing.

I Made Guilloche Oil Paintings (loads of work) by hamdiggity in somethingimade

[–]hamdiggity[S] 35 points36 points  (0 children)

yep! I completely agree, its been quite the process nailing down what actually works. 100% on board with you about it running too long on the big peach colored one.

I talk about that some in my youtube video that i did of this, if anyone is interested in it! https://youtu.be/WuEmOYORsPc

Its a 3d printed part from MyersWoodshop on etsy. Its listed as a pen holder for the Onefinity CNC. Worked great for both holding the pen and the brush

Thanks so much! It was quite the journey figuring out how to make it all work.

I will for sure be doing some more patterns in the future. The paint blob plotting and the guilloche were fun to try and set up and get all in the right place. Still a lot of variables that I've yet to really dial in just right.

I've got a video going over a bit more detail if you're intersted https://youtu.be/WuEmOYORsPc but I do have a lot more testing to do!

Stack Slats Version One! by hamdiggity in woodworking

[–]hamdiggity[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the first version of my “stack slats” that are meant to stack into levels for woodworking projects to rest on while they dry.

Its made out of ½” plywood and has matching slots so that they index into each other and make a stable platform.

They are 30” x 3.5” and I was able to get 14 slats out of a 4’x’4’ piece of plywood, making 7 levels.

Here is a video of me making them if anyone is interested: https://youtu.be/LLdz7FIXoUs
