Re: Medieval Themed Master Bedroom

Your Art is a pleasure to the senses! I particularly like the dragon panel on your corner piece! :) I imagine there was a large sigh of accomplishment upon finishing the last piece. (although something that big is never done until it's out the door...It's like a painting, it just stopped at an inter...

I was a fiberglass moldmaker for a period, and saw a couple defects repeated a dozen time before I took the mold back for a mod. IF rough, then in "Model" tab "add zero plane" to define the edge ...

Re: Wise Man in Mahogany

Wise Man is only 2.625" in direction of the raster...and with my mods it pretty much does that in all axis. 2 IPS is going pretty good for feathers, beads,wood grain,and hair in a 1+ second pass. wise man rest finish on30 .005.jpg Most of my pieces are 3-15 square inches. I'm very happy with the res...

Re: Wise Man in Mahogany

Thanks a LOT guys! :) That makes my first two jobs, not going the extra mile with the .005" bit. :( Hoping it's just getting back into the swing of things(and limited to two espressos a day by Doc). This particular model I was watching the preview while the .25mm TBN was cutting. I couldn't follow t...

Re: Wise Man in Mahogany

Hey Scott :) I've already noticed I made 2 mistkes :) Program was running and it showed 1.5 IPS in all axis instead of 2" Per Second, AND I forgot to check that I was running with Shopbot "Brady's standard 3D tweak" mode :oops: JUST checked and I was only 40% done. Didn't notice I was running at 3/4...

Wise Man in Mahogany

Oh well....flying by the seat of my pants seems to be my MO :) Spent the morning looking for a piece of wood for a different model 2023-04-27 12_51_43-Window.jpg Then ran across a little chunk of wood with no real grain good for skin tone, so swapped to a native American file(3DWAV).
