Re: Photoshop tricks & VCarve Pro/Aspire = photo v-carving...

Hi Boomer52 You were so willing to share your discovery with the rest of us that I thought I would return the favor. The veneer you see was free and it wouldn’t take much to package up a piece with some lesser quality veneer to run test on. ( well it is still nice stuff, but not as much figure. ) I ...

Re: Photoshop tricks & VCarve Pro/Aspire = photo v-carving...

This is the PREVIEW of my end result of the whole reason I started this journey...! I had a request to combine a PhotoVCarve image onto the same plaque as one I was VCarve'ing. Since I didn't have PhotoVCarve I began playing around with the applications I did have attempting to reproduce a PhotoVCa...

Re: Junk wood?

There is a market out there for green products, using reclaimed wood would fit into that category. I plan on doing urns with some of mine.

Re: Ball Nose or Carving bit

Hi Pat
If you are doing pictures to look like the one we worked on, than you would use a V bit.

Re: Junk wood?

Hi Jim Thanks for the information. I didn’t know they recalled the saws. Looks like the lawyers were busy. It doesn’t sound like a new guard is available for it. I can’t see selling them the motor, that is my favorite part of the whole machine. Back in the mid 70's my first job was at a cedar fence ...

Junk wood?

I’m always looking at wood that people are calling junk and throwing out. This stuff here was from a pallet used to ship veneer. I first cut out the good parts between the runners. Run it though the table saw for straight edges. A trip though the planer and look at the nice oak. The second picture i...

Re: PVC tool path settings changed in VCP

Hi Pat
I have seen a little bit of variation of depth when bringing it into VCP. I never has caused me problems so I have never said anything. As for a seal coat I like shellac. So I can’t say anything about the poly.

Re: pvc trial version

Hi
The bit should be fine as long as it cuts to a point. What setting’s are you using, Like depth of cut, line spacing, etc.?

Re: Replacing items in a circle

Hi Pat
The picture will need to worked on in a photo editing program first. VCP will not crop toolpaths. I would cut a few PVC’s before you get into stuff like this. You need to know what is involved in doing PVC’s.
