This guitar themed clock was commissioned as a gift by a dear friend for her son.
The pine wood base was produced on my CNC router. The clock face elements were designed in Lightburn and laser cut from 3mm acrylic and wood veneer.
Guitar Clock
Guitar Cutting Board
I made this cutting board as a wedding gift for my nephew. I laminated the wood – maple for the guitar body, beech for the neck and cherry for the strings and then CNC routed the guitar shape.
Demo Sign
This project was just to demonstrate the sign making capabilities of my CNC router. The sign features a 3D inset carving of a maple leaf and script font lettering. The lettering is infilled with acrylic paint and then sanded off to sharpen the edges.
Office Clock
I designed this 12″ diameter clock to test out a number of different sign lettering techniques – V carve lettering, images, different fonts and raised letters mainly. Designed in VCarve Desktop and produced on my CNC router. The wood is 1/2in MDF which I first painted an off-white colour. I then applied a removable adhesive masking film, ran the CNC job and then painted the letters with the mask mostly still intact. The raised letters were carved out separately, painted and then glued in place.
Wine Corker Handle
This project was a request to make a new handle to replace the one on an existing table-top mounted wine corker. The wine corker was then sold at a fund-raising auction for the Culver Military Academy. The wood is oak. The design was done in VCarve Desktop and carved out on my XCarve CNC router. I made the design from emailed pictures so I was happy to see the final picture of it installed nicely on the wine corking machine.
Honeycomb Drink Coasters
Wood drink coasters with a honeycomb pattern. CNC routed from beech wood.
I keep honey bees so anything bee related is always interesting.
Star Trek Drink Coasters
A set of four wooden drink coasters in beech. Designed in VCarve Desktop and made on my CNC router. For the non-trekkie, the coasters represent four of the occupation streams for Star Trek Starfleet personnel – Science, Engineering, Medical and Command.
Inspirational Sayings Signs
20in x 3in wood engraved signs. Key-slot type wall mounting holes are milled into the back of each sign.
Phone Stand
A simple phone stand made from a single piece of walnut – a piece of walnut leftover from the live edge dining table set. This piece was designed in VCarve Desktop and carved out on my CNC router. The phone stand has a small bowl for pocket change, etc. Finished with Tried and True original wood finish.
Light-table Stand
This is a simple storage stand for a 20in LCD light-table. Keeps the light-table safely out of the way when not in use. Designed in VCarve Desktop and CNC routed from 3/8 baltic birch plywood.
