Larry Breaux is at it again!


It's always great to see more from our customers that have previously had an official "Customer Focus" or "Weekend CNC Warrior" post.  This is Larry's second Shop Notes post and this one really shows off his skills at creating a nice layout and his finishing work!

This is his new family crest!!!

"Let's Ride No.1 carved in maple with black cherry stain as an Xmas gift for my parents. Came out GREAT! Thank you for the great quality models."

We agree, it does look great!  


Thanks again Larry for sharing your work with us!

You can now stop hunting for an Easter project.


Possible Layout

Another possible layout.

Nothing better then a good Easter egg hunt to get the little ones all worked up!  This project, with its arrow sign shape and Easter sgg models, will surely make for some fun layouts to help point the way.

You might even consider using the basket and bow to create a nice 1st Easter wall decoration.  What a great gift for the parents celebrating their first easter with a new baby!

Hack of the Week No.87


With the release of the Western Scenes Collection the potential for hacking together a western themed layout has never been so good! 

This "Cowgirl Up" sign layout was created using models from these CNC projects:

The font we used to simulate the v-carving on this layout is called: Oklahoma


Note - This hack was assembled in Aspire V8 for presentation purposes.  It could have been done in VCarve Pro V8 or VCarve Desktop.


Why not hack together your own layout mixing and matching models from other projects or from your own library!  For some great inspiration check out our  hacks page!
