Hack of the Week No.102 and the Maker Faire


Perfect customizable CNC project hack for the door to your own personal or  local Makerspace. 

This "Beware Maker Inside!" shop sign was created using models from these projects:

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

Like to tinker in the shop or make the occasional electronics project?  Maybe you like to combine your love of old school woodworking with the technology of a CNC or dream of the possibilities of adding lights and movement to your projects.  We are pretty sure that makes you a maker and you just might be going to the 2016 Bay Area Maker Faire.  

Vectric is a proud Blacksmith sponsor!

Vectric is a proud Blacksmith sponsor!

If that's the case keep your eyes peeled for the Vectric booth cause Design and Make will be there!  Make sure you stop in and say "Hi!"


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


Yep you heard right, Vectric and Design and Make will be a the Bay Area Maker Faire.  If you use Vectric software or Design And Make CNC Projects to help you "make",  just interested in what they are all about or have a question for the team you should stop by.  You just never know what new things they might be showing off or demoing that just might help make your "maker" dreams come true!  


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!

Tasting Room Sign by Tom Watson


One of our most popular projects is the Wine Bar No.1.  We could argue that it's because the models are great or that there is a growing number of wine tasters that need a cellar sign... but we have a suspicion that it because of finished pieces like this one from Tom Watson that really sell it's possibilities. 

"22" X 14" carved in pine with a medium brown stain The colors are from FolkArt paint enamels and extreme Glitter with final highlights interference violet and red. It is clear coated with Valspar premium finish gloss. "

""The gold on the is modern masters shimmering metallic paint""

The models look so great when they are finished... either just stained or wonderfully painted like Tom has done.    


Thank you Tom for sharing this project with us!
