Terry, have to echo shortround's observation that the finishing work is very well done! Plus the designs are very pleasing, and recessing the carving within the frame really brings out the body of...
Dick, nice project as usual! I'm like you too... a table saw with a sharp freud blade does a great job jointing a tight glue edge.
Thanks for the kind words. Working on a few more furniture pieces that will make more use of the CW than just carving the feet. Will post those in a few months...
Been a while since I've posted. I can see that a lot of creatively still flows on this forum!... Had a pair of bathroom vanities bought many moons ago that were made of laminated particle board,...
Dick,
I have Windows 10 also, along with the latest Virus and Spyware definitions (version 1.241.72.0) for Windows Defender, and v1.5a doesn't indicate a threat on my workstation. I just now...
In another post, I seem to recall it was Dan (bergerud) who had pointed out that you can run back-to-back projects without releasing the board, as long as the project size is the same. Ie, the...
Sharon, the whimsical fish are wonderfully executed! R, Jon
Dick, well done! I'm guessing that setting up and cutting the compound miters takes longer than the carvings! Looks like a nice tight fit that you must have nibbled your way up to... R, Jon
Steve, well done! Nice clean lines, which really brings out the emblem! Looks like it's computer ready too! R, Jon
Dick, Well done!
Thanks for looking and the compliments. The concept isn't original (these types of drawers are sold commercially), although I was never able to find a picture of the slide mechanism, so improvised....
Built some under the cabinet drawers, mostly using the tablesaw, but the CW came to the rescue to cut the drawer guides, which permit the drawer to slide out horizontally then drop and hold at 45...
Mike, simply beautiful carving and finish! -Jon
Dan, how did you arrive at this means of calculating the adjustment to the calibration. The manual (Rev 1.54, 01/07/13) states...
====================
To find the magnitude of the change to the...
RocketMan,
Am not sure how familiar you are with my "Radial Vector Program", but it essentially allows one to script the generation of complex line drawings that can be imported into designer. ...
Really nice! The gold leaf accents really make the carving pop...
Been dabbling with an advanced version of my "Radial Vector Generator", to incorporate height map stroking of vector paths. Still a long ways to go, but as a rough test, hard coded the parameters of...
I guess I thought you were looking for a way to drop the board just enough to slide it out while the rollers are still on the sled frame. So, if the board is 1/8" proud of the sled frame, then all...
After a bit more thought, I'd re-arrange the hinges as in the first attachment, and then to tighten, simply twist until the two clamp boards are at 180deg, standing flat on top of each other. The...
Haven't studied the design of the carrier sled in full, but am wondering if a double hinge action clamp might do the trick... (See attached rough sketch.) This would avoid the friction issue. The...
Donnie,
Couple of (hopefully helpful) observations...
* Forgive me if you've already worked through this, but it seems like you're going to need at least two sets of rings to make a bowl......
Nice LG... and a product that can deliver itself! ; -) I'm guessing the reference to the vacuum press is to use the CW to make a carbon fiber / resin form, in order to create strong, but light...
Dick,
Uploaded the next iteration of the Wabble script, including it in a re-upload of the v1.5a zip file at the original post...
Yes, makes perfect sense... easy enough to incorporate as another parameter, presuming the profile is always an arc, and not a sinusoidal wave... Although off the top of my head, I can think of a...
Dick,
I've uploaded the latest Radial Vector Generator v1.5a at the original post http://forum.carvewright.com/showthread.php?17794-Make-Gears-with-Radial-Vector-Generator , as I realized that the...
