Making A Clock Case With The Origin CNC Router
🕑 Added 2018-05-18 03:12:43 +0000 UTC I have been getting more adventurous with the Shaper Origin handheld CNC router. This video shows some of my progress in a project that I've been working on for months, it's a clock of course, and I decided to make the wooden case with the Origin. Enjoy!

Gosh, that turned out beautiful - and I agree with Andy, your signature would look gorgeous on a guitar! :D Are you thinking of staining the wood, or adding inlay to the engraved portions? There are so many neat ways to decorate that further. Even makes me wonder - could you feed the same vectors into the 3D printer and make colored plastic inserts to fill the milled signature and logo, etc... I really need to get my 3D printer working!
This Origin router is so an interesting device. Don't need one, but I now want one :-)

That signature wouldn't look out of place on the headstock of a very well-made guitar.
Awesome video! I was wondering, were you using the engraving bit that came with the Origin? What speed was the spindle at?

Can't wait to see the completed project, it's going to look pretty schmicko when it's done!
