There's quite the mix of materials including steel plate, Precision Board, various sized pipes, fittings, bearings, shafts, sprockets and pulleys along with lots of sculpting epoxy too. I started with the base plate, designing each piece, cutting it and then welding it together or fastening it in place. I had a pretty good idea of what the machine would look like when iI did the first sketches but the vision was somewhat fuzzy. For a project like my Sign Invitational feature this is done on an ongoing basis as needed. The thing I love the most about having our MultiCam CNC machines and many other fancy tools in the shop is that I can dream up a part (no matter how complex) and then design and build it in short order. a base pedestal with their logo routed into each side, the strongman robot, and the tabletop.
Coastal Enterprises makes Precision Board, glues and primers which we use in our shop exclusively. I decided a small 24" x 24" table to display samples of their products would be just the ticket. I enjoy getting my hands dirty in the shop and without crew and other interruptions I can get a lot done in a hurry.Īs always space in a trade show booth is in short supply. I just knew that as soon as we got going again after the New Year we'll be busy until our big projects are finished in May. Last night I designed the display piece for our friends at Coastal Enterprises' booth at the International Sign Association EXPO in Orlando in March. By the time Wednesday rolled around I needed to burn off some energy and get active. Then it was time to kick back and enjoy family and lots of good eating. With Christmas falling on a Monday it meant we had a couple of days to do our final shopping and ready the house for two days of company. The crew is taking some deserved time off to be with their families. I want to say a BIG thank you to MultiCam for supporting this adventure for the last eight years! And thanks to all of our readers as well!Īnd you can always check out our latest projects on our journal at Īs per usual the shop is quiet between Christmas and the New Year. It is my hope that readers will still use the archived material as they need to in the future. The blog will stay live, with all that valuable information archived and still accessible. That's a whole lot more than I ever imagined possible and it is gratifying to have achieved that kind of following.Īs we turn the corner into 2018 MultiCam has decided to discontinue this project.
#MULTICAM ROUTER SOFTWARE#
Over the last eight years I have posted 1,299 entries to this blog (and sister blogs sponsored by EnRoute Software and Precision Board.) Those many hundreds of project step by steps, videos and drawings have been viewed more than 653,000 times. I approached MultiCam to sponsor this endeavour and thankfully, they happily did. I had so many questions which needed answering and I knew many others did too.
#MULTICAM ROUTER HOW TO#
Back then information on CNC routers and how to use them was hard to come by.
