Bill and Terry (and other Koi Folks)... someone, awhile ago, shared a page with very nice grayscale photos. There are a lot of Koi. The page is http://www.nipic.com/design/25/1.html . I've been...
John... I have some carvings at Molly's. She and her fiance Scott Kimball ran a place called The Homestead just North of Boulder. Unfortunately, Scott passed away a few years ago... a tragic...
I tried using the CW once because I thought it was a useful feature and would be quicker than the setup time on the router table... but was very disappointed. Folks here agreed it didn't work well...
Hello Folks...
My name is Pete and I live on the Northern State line of Wisconsin. I'm not new here but I don't post a lot. I have an early machine that I believe I bought in 2006. I figure I'm...
Ive never had any luck edge routing and Im advised to use my router table because the CW doesnt perform well. What are you folks using these bits for?
Pete
Wont this carbide bit slip in the split collet adapter?
I feel like asking my wife for something in the fridge... then she walks in and finds it immediately, right in front of my face.
I looked and looked for brushes on LHRs site for brushes. Can't...
Very clever! Do you ever use the pattern editor to smooth out the stepped contours? I'm going to give that a try!
Thanks! Pete

I have the CT, so I used the 1/4" to 1/2" collet. I had to mess with the height quite a bit...
Thanks! An awefullot to learn. So far not so much luck finding usable countour (bathymetric) lake data.
Ill figure it out sooner or later.

I received a 1/16 bit I ordered from amazon, and carved some detailed silhouettes on thin cherry stock. it should work very well for bookmarks. i ordered some 1/16 cherry veneer as well. Now I'll...
So I'm thinking of purchasing the 1/16 straight cutting bit to see how intricate a silhouette I can carve on a thin piece of wood. The carvings will be 3/4" x 3/4" at most on a 1/8" piece of cherry.
Very nice, Steve. This is for a cyclone that will sit on top of the bucket. I carved it out of plywood so no worries about plastic. Bergerud... That seems like it would work as well! The carve...
Thanks guys!
So I guess hogging it out is the only way to go. I was stuck on trying to designate a carving area.

Hi...
I bought a ClearVue mini cyclone for dust collection. I'd like to use the carvewright for making a lid. Basically, I want to cut a donut and then have the carvewright rout a 1/4" dado...
Great wor! So basically, you have a clock displaying the hour and minute with gears. Very clever.
Pete
Dick... looks interesting. What type of data do you need from DNR? I've done some lake contour carving from gray scale images but they were hard to get and only from a friend who mapped one lake....
Thanks! I thought I was missing something simple about removing the lid. I'll use my dremel.
BTW... How do you guys like the DC? My ClearVue 1800 has been arriving in pieces.
Pete
VERY nice! and thanks for the heads up on the FREE software.
Pete
Thanks Greg! I'm sure I'll be able to use that but as brdad states, I'm looking for an elevation countour map. Is there one around? Or brdad, did you use a DEM file?
Pete
I made the dust collector project from the store. What is the trick to removing the plastic viewing lid so I can cut a hole in it?
Pete
There's one list there starting with z and working to a (then numbers). No WI under the Ws.
Hi folks...
Does anyone have or know where I can find a gray scale contour map of WI?
It sure would be great to have.
Pete
Has anyone used their CW to make blast gates? A quick search didn't turn up anything. Seems like a good job for the CW. I have a new Clear Vue DC on order and will need a bunch of them.
I'll...
