Vcarve inlays are a feature that I was not expecting but absolutely love. I am constantly amazed at the absolute ease of use and intuitiveness of this software. It is exciting to have this kind of technology in my shop because of all the possibilities it opens up for my projects. I cannot say enough good things about this software package. In addition, almost everything I build I first draw up using vcarve Pro or CAD. When I purchased my CNC machine, I also purchased Vectric software to create my toolpaths. I use all the standard stationary power tools including a CNC machine.

It made sense for me to then to be able to program a machine to perform some of the processes to build those projects.ĭuring my years of retirement, I have built up a fully equipped wood shop. Generally, I draw detailed plans with CAD for my projects. I became interested in CNC technology because it simplifies and makes the processes easier for much of what I create. The more complicated the better, I really enjoy figuring out how to make complex components. Many of my box projects incorporate complex inlays and intricate joinery. My main interests are in boxes, segmented turning and clocks. Now that I am retired, I am able to spend time woodworking for myself. Pneumatics, MIDI, graphic arts, aviation, forensics etc. I finished my career with a fully equipped technology lab featuring CAD CAM, robotics, electronics. After that, I followed the evolution of technology and implemented it into my subject areas of drafting, metalworking, welding, plastics and woodworking. My first assignment was in technology education where I spent 15 years teaching middle level students. Woodworking is a hobby for me now, I taught technology education in public schools for 31 years.
