Goblet

Post by Phil »

I don't have a rotary drive for my machine but if I did this would be a wicked cool project.

You can always slice it and do a double-sided cut.

Sure would, only problem is that it is not possible on a rotary axis.

Where the problem lies is on the nearly vertical cuts, like the ones on top of the base.

Here is something I did a year or so ago:

I know, lousy picture. That is hard maple, sanded to the nth degree and then a spray enamel put on while it was turning on the rotary to avoid runs and drips. Oh yea, this was done as segmented construction to keep the grain all running nice and parallel.

Cut3D's 4-sided option would be most useful for this sort of thing.

It's a little annoying that my 2k software won't do what the $300 software will.
I know there are workarounds but... Come on man! 😁👍
