WoodMarvels.com October/November 2011 Review

Jon Off CNCKing.com News,

I was so busy last at the beginning of November that I didn’t get around to doing my monthly review of what happened here on WoodMarvels.com so here is the extended version. By far the biggest news over the past two months was acquisition of my new ShopBot Desktop designed and built by ShopBot Tools Inc. out of North Carolina. An amazing CNC by any measure!

So, what happened at WoodMarvels.com over the past two months?

New (and first) CNC project release of a Stegosaurus
I wrote about my conversions and upcoming CNC models with an upcoming Chinook Helicopter, Plans coming out soon,
I went on a road trip to ShopBot Tools Inc.
David launched two new projects on WoodMarvels.com including a really cool Fire Truck and Christmas Tree and also I released an updated animation for my first business card older. Edgar the Inventor also released his gun in DXF format.
I was interviewed by Guy @ Ponoko.com and also did my first video using my new video production equipment.
I made a search and found a laser provider to help me cut a project for a client out of Indonesia.
David sent me a link to a really cool laser cutting video of the Zulu Main Battle Tank while Richie send me some pictures of Jarek’s really cool monster box laser etched and cut!
I optimized the site such as the PDFs site wide and released the design evolution of the Rocket Coaster released a month earlier.
WoodMarvels.com Volume 3 was released in printed form – digitally a month earlier once I approved the proof.

December 2011 Goals

Wow… looking back – a heck of a lot happened… this month… I’m focusing on getting a bunch more CNC projects completed then based on what I’ve learned converting/testing laser projects to CNC – releasing dual projects so one design is cut from the same thickness of wood using either technology. Lots more coming very soon!
