This is the first thing done 'in anger' on the new rotary axis of my CNC. Took a bit of tweaking but blooming' 'eck it's amazing what it can do! The kit is a baron, the wood is summat (a gift from Paul but neither of us recognised it) the tribal tattoos are inlaid with atomised brass. Bleeding difficult stuff to work with, made no easier by having to be used on a cylinder. Hard to escape gravity when some part of the inlay area is always vertical and the stuff is finer than talcum powder ... :nonono::nonono:

[QUOTE="Jimjam66, post: 56501, member: 58"] This is the first thing done 'in anger' on the new rotary axis of my CNC. Took a bit of tweaking but blooming' 'eck it's amazing what it can do! The kit is a baron, the wood is summat (a gift from Paul but neither of us recognised it) the tribal tattoos are inlaid with atomised brass. Bleeding difficult stuff to work with, made no easier by having to be used on a cylinder. Hard to escape gravity when some part of the inlay area is always vertical and the stuff is finer than talcum powder ... :nonono::nonono: [ATTACH]5494._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]5495._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]5496._xfImport[/ATTACH] C'mon Paul - lets see what YOURS can do! :face::face: [/QUOTE]
