Seems like...
Nice carving, and GREAT subject matter!!! The opaque colors of Corian are definetly better for doing engraved images.......things that you enjoy without backlighting and that you can add color into...

Thank you.......I have been to the school of hard knocks on these materials......learning the hard way what does and doesn't work. I figure if anybody can use any of this information to keep from...

I have my machine in my not always heated garage. Consequently, when it is cold outside and in my shop (garage), I start...
Yeah Bud, kinda what I said...........except a little more official sounding, what with all the quotes and red text and all.........just kidding, I think...... :0)

Just be advised that there has been some discussion that cutting 1/2" Corian material can cause excessive side pressure to the cutting head and carving bit, which may or may not shorten the life of...
I don't know if I am into carving to make money, not yet at least. That's not to say I haven't made a couple of bucks on a project or two......lithos seem to be the most desired project. I love...
