I got a request for a Peterbilt truck and a oil rig carvings. The Peterbilt was taken off of google warehouse and converted to an STL and the oil rig was an image on the net.

Now who can guess the reason for the name tag??

beautiful carves (I love sketchup don't you!?)

And my guess on the name tag is that David and the other recipient are married and these are wedding gifts?

Did I win?!

Thanks for the comments!

Lawrence, yes sketchup is a cool program and with it you have LOTS of models out there to convert for the CW. I was very surprised at the number of Peterbilt trucks that were listed.

For the name tag I used that old principle of being able cover ones mistakes. I do my key hole cuts on the router table and instead of doing my lay out for the cut on the "face" of the project, with out thinking (obviously) I marked it on the back side of the board. As soon as I pushed the board down on the bit and made the cut I knew I goofed up.
