A few of our HS shop projects

After seeing a bunch of acrylics on here, I finally decided we needed to try one with the mascot our high school. We are at risk of having to change our mascot, so everyone in the community wants something 'Braves.' When I showed my principal he wanted us to make and start selling them. It's been a ...

Re: Acrylic Advice

Thanks, Keith. I don't know why I never thought to just solder the power supply straight to the lights. Guess it was too obvious. That actually makes things much easier.

Acrylic Advice

I finally got around to trying an edge lit acrylic with our machine. Boy am I glad I did! We may be required to change our school's mascot from the Banks Braves, to something without a Native American reference next year, so folks in our small town want as much Braves gear as they can get. We will s...

G-Code not Matching Part Coordinates

On two signs that we've tried to make recently, we've had issues where the machine starts off cutting correctly, then part-way through it shifts from where it should be. On the first one, about halfway through a clean-out V-Carve section, the machine shifted about 1" to the left of where it should b...

First Couple of Signs

We've had our Pro Plus for just about 2 weeks now, & my students are starting to turn out some cool projects. The first is about a 16" long football for our head football coach; there is still a little cleanup to do. The second is about a 10" long plaque for our school's ASB president. Any suggestio...
