Yes, starts out as rough sawn cedar. Using the CNC for accessories. Good example as to why I need a fold down CNC for space. The other canoe is a Canadian Peterborough design. This is a solo canoe, of my own design. Adding a front cover that hinges open.

Hey William,

what is the coating/finish made of? What glue did you use?

I love that joinery! I really need to figure out some vertical clamping method on my table

Regular wood glue, fiberglass epoxy resin for strength and waterproof. Just wanted to show the CNC can be one of many tools for a project.

Follow up on this superman logo i made for my buddy who went down on his bike, suffered a tbi, and had difficulty balancing.

This was what he did to it… i wouldn’t have done that much, but it looks awesome nonetheless!

what finish did you use on your speakers?

It’s spray paint. I don’t remember the exact kind off the top of my head, but I can find out.

WOW, beautiful piece of work. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Hey William,

the work you do in your workshop is admirable. And your Onefinity table that I like very much which has at same time a flippable tabletop and a vertical clamping facility shows how ingenious and imaginative you are, and your perfect execution in everything testifies to a lot of knowledge and experience.

I like your workshop very much. With all the windows, that’s ideal daylight. I understand that when you make such work in your workshop that a flippable cnc table makes sense.

Do you have a vertical clamping system setup for the female side of the dovetail joints?
Also, any tricks on getting the dovetails programmed up properly? I have done blind finger joints, but havent ventured into dovetails yet.

If i would have been patient and read to the end i would have found the answer to the vertical clamping question. Sorry about that.

Yes, I believe Aiph5u was able to link it above.
On corner joints i was able to draft out an arrowhead joint, and a birdseye joint on Vcarve pro.


For dovetails, mortise and tenon I mainly use a program called Joint Cam.

That is amazing detail! Where do all of these great designs come from? Did you do it all yourself? I’m new to CNC so I’m trying to find how to make these amazing projects.

I bought the 3d model online and adapted it for a 5 piece carve with my tool pathing. Hard part with buying models is there are some great artists and lots of people who sell stolen models as well.

Custom leather stamp for a Scouts BSA maple syrup program in north east Wisconsin. We have had them made in the past and they cost hundreds per piece. Design time was the long part. Total milling time was 20 minutes.
