First completed project
What more appropriate way to break in a new toy (the Shark) than to make a plaque for a friend's new baby!! I am rapidly finding the steep learning curve to CNC, but loving every moment of it. I hope to have more projects soon. I am in the very early stages of starting a small business (on the side) to sell projects, and will tell you that the response to this carving was immediate. I had two official orders within a day or two, and others very interested.

Re: First completed project
Nice job for your first project! Now you'll have to see about making a Lithophane or two, or 20! Its all very addictive!
Being retired is hard work. Spending way too much time in the shop these days. (And loving it).

Re: First completed project
From the looks of your "first project" I would say you don't need to worry about the learning curve too much. You have covered a lot of ground with that one project. There are tons of little details to learn but you have got a good handle on the hard stuff. Once you learn to get something out of the computer and into the wood you have taken a tremendously large step. Lookin' good!

Re: First completed project
Thank you all for your encouragement. Keith, I am looking forward to my first lithophane. I have PhotoVCarve and know that the sky is the limit. When that time comes, I will be sure to post that project as well.
