is CNCing a word? can we make it into one?

Here is a large plywood piece I just wrapped up. more painting than carving, but I am posting it so you can see the marks on the plywood that I make with a V carve bit. They mark the significant points on piece so when I go to paint it, the work is more like fill in the areas, or paint by number. It speeds the painting up immensely.

So these two large pieces were cut out of 1/2 plywood and painted over a two day period.


A little Game of Thrones Fan art for a gathering we are having.

No problem. Next time spray the board one color of your design. Cut out just the pieces of that color. Spray another color. Cut out just the pieces of that color. Repeat until done. Then you have a jigsaw puzzle. I imagine you could find a market for them. And no painting issues.
:grin:
And that's why you have a CNC. Hehehe
You have so many good ideas, I think I will send you this file so you can cut it up. I will provide the paint numbers and color index.

Scott, when I saw the finished result, the idea that just popped into my head was to A. Quit my job. B. kiss my Wife goodbye, tell her I’ll be back some day. C. Show up outside your door, call you Sensei, and not leave until I have learned to woodwork properly (ie. Masterfully ), Oh yeah you would also get to call me grasshopper. My brain has always sorta worked off kilter like that, explains a lot. Work looks like it’s up to your usual standards!
Ok that is major funny. but I like the Grasshopper idea..

Since it's just "paint by number" why couldn't you (I mean we - here's your chance Artie) just start making paint by number kits. Dr T could implement the business plan and we're on the way.

We could learn how to do it, hunt, fish, set the business up, hunt, fish, ride your abilities in the ground, hunt, fish, provide more ideas, hunt, fish, hire staff and a labor force (do Eskimos work as cheap as the Chinese?), hunt, fish, set the stock options up, hunt, fish, and count and distribute the money. Hopefully we could also get a little hunting and fishing in too - in our spare time.

I think we're on to something.

Rick, want a job running a 4 x 8 Pro? We may have an opening coming up.

The wheels are turning in my iddy biddy brain!!
You just keep olde Iddy Biddy banging and whistling..... I am going fishing..
