Marinan Brewer's Graduation Plaque!


With the end of the school year soon approaching we thought it would be the perfect time to post this finished project hack from Marinan Brewer.

"Machine is Laguna Swift CNC ROUTER 4X8.  Software is V CARVE PRO comes with machine!"

"Needless to say - I used your Projects for all the items carved! Worked great"

Marinan used the Graduation Day No.1 and the Rose Tile No.1 project to hack together this layout.

What a great plaque for a wonderful achievement.  We're sure Emily loved it!

Mother's Day and Fun in the Sun!


John Mordus is back with two great projects to share with us.   With his first project he has created a layout that can be easily customized with a unique message for a very special person!

Mom's Garden

"Mother's day and springtime are coming up so I made a bunch of these up. Used your Mother's Garden No.1."

As you can see his layout was easily customized with different v-carving to make it a very special gift!

"Used a glued up 1" - 2' x 4' pine panel from big box store - can get 6 of these out of 1 piece. Minwax stain - 4 coats of oil based poly for inside - 4 coats of spar varnish is going outside"

Gerry's Garden

His second project is a little work in progress that he has given us a sneak peek at.

"Experimenting a little for a Jimmy Buffet fan. Still needs some tweaking on the different layers."

"24 x 12" - 1" glued up pine panel"

He used models for the Under the Sea No.1, Fun in the Sun No.2 and the beer mug that came included in his Aspire software.  What a great looking hack just as it is!


Thank you, again, John for sharing these special projects with us!
