\"I have very recently purchased several of your Design and Make projects to get me going on my home made Mechmate CNC<\/a>. I have very limited experience and have hardly used my machine due to work travel requirements however that has now changed and I plan to spend more time using my CNC and Design and Make Projects.\"<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>

\"My CNC has a cutting table size of 2440mm x 1240mm runs with a water cooled 2.2Kw Spindle.\"\u00a0
\"I use Vectric Aspire V8<\/strong> and Mach 3.\"
\"I used a 6mm End Mill to Rough out followed by a 2mm Tapered Ball nose to finish. The text was cut using a 60-degree V-Bit with both signs then being cut out using my table saw. The signs were then treated to several coats of Organoil to finish. The material used was Australian Blackwood.\"<\/em><\/p>\n

Tony posted a great video on his businesses page<\/a> showing the signs being machined! \u00a0Check it out!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>
