I love the book ends.

Thanks for sharing your project.

Hello everyone
With the summer being a little slow with sales, I've done a few things with the DWC.
I'm making 25 of these signs for a friends daughter. You can make some good money by doing these interesting items.

This was ran in three steps.
1. Inside pockets- the reason for pocketing is so you don't have little pieces breaking the letters when they come lose.
2. Outside profile- before you can run this you have to screw down a 1/4" plywood to hold the piece in place once it breaks free.
3. Vcarve the letters
Couple of side notes, I did cuts inside the "S" so there were no pieces breaking lose. Also don't forget to make your rapid travel above your 1/4" plywood or you can cut into the screws that are holding it down. Yes, that happen to me.

Let me know if you would like the G-code to play with.

I have a friend that is really big in the Boy Scout.
This is right off the machine. Use a 1/8" ball mill.
E-mail me if you want the G-code.

I did this in plastic.
This is a youtube link of it.

If you want to run it e-mail me and I'll send it you to. It's too big to put on the forum.
Use a 90 degree v-cutter and you will need 12 1/2" board. The board can be larger.

Awesome Burl

What kind of plastic would one use for that? Also how thick should it be?

With respect to the LED's. how long of a strip did you put in the base. Can you provide details on how you made the base section. I am loving this look and can see me doing lots of these.

Best Wishes

Fred
