Shopbot 30 IN 90
Project # 31
When you have a hammer that costs a lot of money, and works super well, everything starts to look like a nail!
This was supposed to be a funny make our friends laugh project that I fear may have become a permanent art installation in their bathroom.
A shout out to Professor E @ericmckinley4477 for turning me onto how much fun foam can be.

We have been using ShopBot CNCs in the workshop for the last 20 years, and our latest machines were due for a tune-up.

So ShopBot flew Brian Owen over from the States to recalibrate our machines, fine-tune the routines, and share some insight on maintaining that efficiency and accuracy ourselves going forward.
None of us came from an engineering background, so having that level of expertise on the floor was invaluable.

Massive thanks to Brian and the team at @shopbottools for the visit and continued support over the years.

Biggest photo VCarve yet 🤘🔥
Beki is cutting a massive Ozzy Osbourne piece in Vectric software a tribute to a true Birmingham legend.
This will be part of our stand at Makers Central, 16th–17th May at the NEC, so if you’re coming along, make sure you stop by and say hi!

While the engraving on powder coated enclosures didn’t cut all the way through, it sure is precise and sparked lots of ideas about other applications for elaborate pattern designs.

It will certainly be more noticeable on unpainted pedal enclosures, and GREAT for custom designs on anodized aluminum pickguards, cavity covers, pickup covers and more.

This was a big project.
Project #21
The Stargate served as an entry way into a party and looked strikingly💯 realistic.
Thanks to Professor E for the wonderful opportunity to work on this project, I learned a lot and it ended up SO SO cool.

These ramps were fun and quick to make on the ShopBot some years ago. Cutting perfect transitions with pockets for accurate and even rib support placement made assembly smooth and fast. #shopbot30
