CNCKing.com Review October/November 2012

Spent the past few days getting all my ducks in order and have launched a new rewards program on CKCKing.com that gives you rewards towards free things on partner sites just for visiting us! How cool is that! Like the job board, this is a test I’ll run for the next few months – if it’s positive, it will stay, if not, move-onto something else.

Server and backup stability have been greatly enhanced as well as realtime chatting – expect to see a lot more of me on this site answering your questions as you shop around. Overall, CNCKing.com transition/migration has been a great success and things are rebounding nicely – bright future ahead for sure!

October November CNCKing.com Review

I’ll be launching a new laser cut project with some really cool engraving shortly so watch for that from a new designer joining the site and I figure another day or two, our first CNC plasma file and designer too!

I didn’t have a chance to post a review of October due to the massive amount of work I had to do and rebranding I had to focus on so I’ll bunch it up with November now that things are finally ALL DONE.

October / November Happenings

Biggest news was the end of WoodMarvels.com – 4 years in the making it was time for a seismic shakeup! It involved a new domain, ISP, FaceBook account, major optimization and switching everything to the cloud (only finished a few days ago) and a host of other headaches including manual migration of everything across two sites into one.

First design was Utzi’s Slice Chair, followed with models by Jerry, Phil, David, Stephane then my books and other designers. I then started adding my designs along with Bill Young’s really cool Sheter 2.0 before calling the official transition from WoodMarvels.com done.

Not fun but very happy to have it behind me now! The site is way faster, distributed, stable and social including a job board, Google+.

Here are some of the animations I manged to make and upload over the past two months. Goal for this month is getting more designs up and continue my marketing efforts to regain what I lost during the rebranding.
