That's really a nice looking piece. Would you mind sharing a few pointers on how you created it? For example, what type of wood did you use, how did you mask the two stains, what varnish did you...
That's a really fantastic project! I went to your site hoping to see the pattern for sale, but no luck. Will you be offering it? I assume that it's a three piece assembly, glued together? Looks...
Thanks again. I'm off to try and find double-sided carpet tape.
Amonaug, you're right, I could just use carve regions for the gears which is the simplest way to do it. The only reason I would...
Thanks for the suggestions. I'm going to use "Cut Path" for the 0.5 inch gear, and I will use a carrier for the 0.25 and 0.125 inch gears. I think the actual cutting time will be a lot less for the...
I have need of several wooden gears for a project I'm making. The thicknesses are 0.5 inch, 0.25 inch and 0.125 inch. I'd like to design them in TurboCAD, save them as .png files and transfer them...
Thanks for all the kind words of encouragement. I used cherry wood which seems to work pretty well. Total carve time for both sides was less than three hours. Size is 9 inch by 10 inch.

2) Turn torque adjusting screw 1/4 turn clockwise.
but I'm learning...
I consistently get a front roller compression error when I crank down the head (switch remains "released"). I find that if I push down lightly on the head after it contacts the wood and continue to...
Thanks Ken. I'm on my way to Radio Shack...
Ken,
I like your lighting ideas. Could you provide a few more details? Where did you get the socket for the Maglite bulbs? I hate to think I have to buy a $10 Maglite to get a $2 light socket....
I apologize if this has already been discussed, but I found a free program that allows you to design a Celtic knot and then output a height map that can be loaded into CarveWright Designer. I am...
My new machine is on the way and I'm trying to "get my ducks in a row" before it arrives. The recent dust explosion at the sugar factory in Georgia reminded me of the danger of dust in the air. I'm...
