I needed to quickly make a couple of display pieces for an upcoming trade show in Florida. The first would showcase the texture DVD's I sell. The panel had to be small and quick to make. It would be carved from 30 lb Precision Board. And it had to feature a couple of textures of course. I grabbed my sketch book and began to scribble down some ideas. The first few sketches weren't working for me but I soon came up with the idea of a machine with gears. Two quick drawings worked things out enough to go straight to the vector design stage. I could do the rest in EnRoute and then on to the router.
The piece measured about 18" square and was almost 3" thick at its thickest point. It was big enough to be noticed but small enough to ship easily. The file ran pretty quick on the MultiCam. It was cut in three pieces and I couldn't resist hitting the go button once more to make a piece for my display here in the shop too. While it cut I glued up the first piece.
Next comes paint.
Stay tuned...
