A while back I was in a thread that talked about restarting a carve. I had some purple heart bordered by oak and was asked to post some pics when I was a little further on. Well, I have finished one row of cabinets for over the stove area and I thought I would keep you updated as the the progress. I already have started on the next row and will post some more pics when I am done. Thanks for all the help on this!

Frederick,

The combination of the oak and purple heart is stunning to say the least. Love the carving and the beautiful lady sets the stage for top shelf material.

The cabinets are great. Very nice design and craftsmanship. I wouldn't mind having some like those in our kitchen.

The display you present for us is inspiring, and very professional.
Thank you for sharing your project.

Awww....shucks! Thanks guys! I had my wife model with them to give the cabinets some scale in the photos as they are designed to go to the ceiling. While she was hesitant when I first bought the machine, she is a huge fan now and has all sorts of plans for new projects. I am thinking of designing a carved wooden purse! :-)

I have made a dust collector that sucks up almost 100% of the dust. Now I don't have to worry about stopping the machine mid carve to clean it out. Carving one of these large doors takes the machine seven hours on Optimal and the purple heart is so hard that the dust is like talcum powder. But now the machine looks as clean after the carve as when I started. I will snap some pics of the setup and post them when I have the chance.
