Beki's Top Tip
Did you know that you can view your toolpaths in the 2D View in two different ways? By default you can view the toolpath as a Wireframe Drawing that shows you the direction of the toolpath using arrow indicators, or you can opt to choose a Solid Preview that colours in the area that will be machined away! Simply Toggle between the two options from the Top View Toolbar!

Michael Tyler's Parish Pump Planter | Free Project

This project was inspired by Parish Water Pumps that were (and are) located at the heart of many communities throughout the world. It was the responsibility of each parish to provide water for its residents. This Parish Pump Planter makes a nice home decor item and is sure to catch the eye of visitors and guests!

Ted Reischl Beam Compass | Case Study

The project started with a need for a good beam compass. As I started to work on it for some reason my brother in law came to mind. He is a superb woodcarver, furniture builder and a teacher. The holidays were coming up and I thought it would make a nice gift. I could not just wrap up a beam compass in some paper and hand it to him, so a box was needed.
