Popular Post Tom Cancelleri Posted October 16, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 Yes I'm still alive! I got engaged just over a year ago and have been pretty damn busy. I decided to make all my wedding favors. I had some experience with Fusion360 but not to the point I needed to be at for making these boxes and generating the tool path for the CNC. There are 120 guests coming. I milled up some 10/4 Maple that I had left over from my Roubo build 3 years ago. I cut the boxes to 71mm x 71mm. Once I cut all the blanks, I sawed off about 5/8" for the top on the bandsaw (not in the video). I literally started making them in the first week of September after 10 months of procrastinating. I thought well hell I may as well upgrade the CNC to help kick this project's ass. I attached a video of a good portion of the process. I have 27 more to make, wedding is in 19 days. That's about 3-5 days of work (after actual work) https://youtu.be/HgZzJ31nwt8 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To the point that she said I should get a bigger CNC and a dedicated laser engraver/cutter. She actually bought me the laser module I'm running currently last year for Christmas.
