I love 3D Machinist

Post by nostradamus »

This is a carving I did a few weeks ago. It is on a decorative canoe paddle. I'm very happy that I have the ability to offer 3D carving while I'm saving my pennies for Cut 3D and then eventually Aspire. Thank you Vectorart 3D and Vectric!

Nos,

That looks great!

Take that to some area craft shops, boat places, marina's, tackle shops or whatever you have in your area. It just may generate some interest and a little extra income will help toward Cut3D and Aspire.

Thanks Tim,
That means alot coming from you. You'll notice a mean attempt at your glazing technique. Thank you for putting that PDF together. I was very happy with how this turned out. It is my third attempt at 3D. The first two were a little disappointing, so I was stoked when this one turned out so well. It is about 5 1/2" x 9" and it only took about 10 min. of clean-up (sanding and smoothing) before it was ready for finish.
I would love to take this to some shops, however, I did this for a friend (He cut out and shaped the paddle) so he has it now.
Thanks,
Nos
