My first attempt with the CNC Shark. Be brutally honest - what do you think?

OK - if you know me, you know there's NO WAY I made that bench!
Just wanted to get this forum kick-started - now let's see some real CNC Shark projects!

First thought was, What part of the world do you live! Funny

Goes to show, people who own a Shark are very creative with humor also! Looking forward to a long life with this Forum. Nice Kick off! Steve

I was thinking "must have used the new 9-axis shark prototype and a really big block of wood".

Umm yeah, here I am carving out pennstate signs thinking "FIRST ATTEMPT!? I better kick it up a notch or two!" I've made a dust collection system tha follows with the router head on the gantry. So far It has made a huge improvement. I will eventually cut the pieces on the shark. I used lexan and cherry.

bottom view. I plan on making the entry hole a little bit smaller in the future but there's no sense rebuilding untill I crash into the clamps again and destroy it. I have to add about and inch and a half on either ends of the mat'l to allow for clearance.

Yeah - you'd better kick it up a notch or THREE, Stephen!

Your "Dust Foot" is really creative! What an awesome idea!
