I recently made this Love sign for my Sister and her Husband. I design the sign in Vectric Aspire and carved on the X-Carve CNC Router. I carved the sign out of a piece of White Pine wood, took a wire brush over it to give it a more of a Rustic look. Then I stained it with Dark Walnut stain...

Number puzzles for the grandchildren. Cut out with my CNC. Pockets are 1/8" and the numbers are 1/4". Everything is Baltic birch. There are two puzzles on the board. On one side are the english names and on the other side is a different language, in this example Norwegian. A couple of...

This is a very customized Mash Paddle ordered to be used as a gift for a Change of Command Ceremony aboard the USS Russell, an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer in the United States Navy. The emblem to the left of the ship silhouette is the Navy's "Command at Sea" badge, while the one on the right...

I made this Personalized Cat bowl feeder for my cat, Tiny. I used a piece of Maple wood, designed it using Vectric Aspire and cut it out on the X-Carve CNC Router. Stained it using Minwax Gunstock finish, painted the claws and names with Craft paint. Thanks for checking out my Cat Feeder. If...

This is a two piece unit. It stands 89 inches tall and is 38" wide by 38" deep. This project took me a year and a half to complete, not because it was difficult, but because I couldn't devote the time to working in the freezing cold temperaters of a Minnesota winter in my unheated garage. In...

I Carved a Chevrolet sign using a piece of Maple, stained with Minwax Gunstock finsh and Black spray paint. It was carved on the X-Carve CNC router, using a 90 degree V-Bit and 1/4" Endmill. I used the V-Bit for the lettering and the Texture look. I like the Texture look, it gives the piece...

Over the last couple of weeks I have been busy trying to come up with a way to use my CNC Router as an accurate way to do inlay work. The first problem you encounter when you use a router for inlay work is square corners - it's simply not possible to produce a square inside corner with a round...

About a month and a half ago, I finished and presented a hope chest using all reclaimed wood to a family who gave it to their daughter for her 18th birthday. A few days after that I was contacted by one of their friends who wanted me to build an exact duplicate for the same reason! This one...

I wanted to make something to display at work to let people know that I can now make large "Scrabble-like" letters in a variety of sizes. Usually, once they see them, they get ideas in their own heads on how they can use them in their own homes. What better way than replacing my drab old name...

This is a live edge mesquite clock made from a slab from John Goodwin at the Dead Tree Salvage in Casa Grande, Az. In keeping with the theme, instead of numerals, it has flies ( from 1 to 12) . The lettering and flies were cut on a CNC router by Randy Smith, the shop teacher at East Kentwood...

We decided to make gifts for my kids' teachers this Christmas. We used Siberian Elm for all of them. On the back side is a "trough" for pens/pencils. The two parts are not attached so they could be turned around if they prefer them that way. We used the CNC router in my classroom at school to...

This week I made a sign for a Home Theatre room, shaped like a giant Ticket. I design the project in Vectric Aspire and Carved it on my X-Carve CNC Router. You can check out the video on my Youtube channel here. Thanks for checking out my sign You can also see more details on my Instructables...

This is a CNC Router that I built based off of the book "Build Your Own CNC Machine". The bulk of the machine is built out of Medium Density Fiberboard (MDF). The bearing rails are build out of 6061 aluminum angle. The machine is driven by 3 stepper motors using 1/2-10 Acme screws. The machine...

I made this paddle for two clients who wanted to get their father a special gift to show how proud they were of his latest achievements in beer brewing. I worked closely with the two brothers to come up with a layout and the details and then I went searching for the perfect piece of wood. I...

I wanted to experiment with my CNC Router and try a bunch of different fonts so I can easily allow future customers to choose a font for their projects. What better way to do this than make a rather large sign that contains 23 different types of Ale! :-) I also learned how deep a proper...

This is a wall hanging I created using mahogany and ash. Two woods I have rarely seen paired together, but in this case I think they work well together. I wanted to try experimenting with displaying items in multiple planes and using differing textures within the same piece. I took a thick...

A couple of years ago, I posted a register vent I made on my scrollsaw. Since then, I have added a new "toy" to my woodworking arsenal - a CNC Router. About a month ago I had all the carpeting in the house replaced with solid birch planks and decided that the contractor-grade brown metal vents...

I made this sign for a friend who commissioned it for another friend's birthday. This is one of her friend's favorite quotes. The sign in 7 1/4" x 27". Thanks for looking.
