Watch Out Lee and Wolfe *LINK*

Wolf in disguise maybe.......

Scott in Eastern Iowa

>.....thats a Carvewright product made for Sears.

They are the talk of the Forms right now and crank out some amazing work. Scan a picture and this thing carves it into wood.

Love to have one...but the justification just isn't there.....yet.

>Neat little toy, can't wait to see one in action.

I wonder if they will ever make a four axis machine


Cravewright

Mini CNC?

>I'm not interested in this as a carver, but I wonder how it would work with soft metals? Perhaps this one won't, but it's got to be right around the corner. I didn't see how many potraits of Ol' Ben you need to part with to get one of these, but 5 or 6 would be my guess.

Try 19 of them

>$1899.00 plus a computer to be exact

This machine uses router bits, but yes it's like a mini CNC

>EGADS!! To much for my Blood that's fer sure, and I doubt it's worth using on wood anyhow. I can see it tearing up some wood. I think the handcarvers are safe.

worth using on wood ?......

>.....Thtas what its made for?

Theres a cabinet maker on another forum who uses this machine part time making business signs and has his Carveright paid for 3x over already.

It can be done.

Who needs carving tools?

Thomas Skaggs, Foothills of Mount Level

>That's a lot of money for a woodworker to pay for a tool that will get them out of the "effort" and enjoyment of learning to carve by hand. I hope it has a remote control so woodworkers can sit back with a cold one while the machine does their hobby for them! ;-)

It's a good thing for everyone

>CNC machinery has been making beautifully carved work available to people who would not be able to afford it otherwise. This is a good thing. The better work is detailed by hand after the machine does most of it and I have seen plenty I'd be proud to put my own name on.

Were I inclined to go into production on any of my designs a CNC router would be a must have. Now it wouldn't be a cheap one but it would be at the top of the list.
