Hack of the Week No.22

The great thing about our mini-projects is that you can mix and match the models or add in your own.

Our weekly mini-project hack uses models from 2 or more mini-projects.

The 2014 Vectric User Group meeting is happening next week... and we can't be any more excited!!! This year, for the first time, we will be there... oh yeah!  

We couldn't help ourselves and had to hack together this spiffy user group sign for the occasion.  It was put together using models from 3 different mini-projects:

The font we used to simulate the v-carving on the sign is called:

  • Iskoola

Get ready for a great learning experience, a bit of networking and lots of inspiration!!!!  Hope to see you there!

Be safe and let the chips fly!

Weekend CNC Warrior, Carl Hird-Rutter, is unstoppable!

Carl Hird-Rutter is at it again!  He used the Wine Bar No.1 mini-project and the free Heart and Ribbon mini-project to hack this beauty together!

"Just made a sign for a bulkhead on my basement stairs.
it is 1x10 pine.
The finish is two colours of Briwax. I love how it gets in the crevices and makes it pop.
The banner is from the free Heart MiniProject.

The font is Christmas Card 2"

Carl has sent us a few more submissions but we're going to save them for another time.  Truly amazing work Carl... thanks for sharing!

Weekend CNC Warrior, Keith Geiger, is hacking up some great stuff!

Keith Geiger seems to have a knack for using our mini-projects!  He has come up with some great custom plaques for a basketball team.  

 

 

"I actually made 9 of these basketball ones up for a friend of mine who coaches a basketball team."
"Each one had a different last name and jersey #.. The kids loved them!"

This is a great example of a hacking mini-projects by adding and some models he already had in his library.  FANTASTIC work!
