Hack of the Week No.104


For those of you that are a fan of the Mother's Garden themed projects you surely will appreciate this one.  We only used 2 models to create this hack: the daisy in the background is the same as the other just flipped and scaled.  Change up the simulated v-carving to create a customized layout for a wedding, housewarming gift or to fit your needs.

This "Mother's Love" wall decoration or brooch was created using models from these projects:

The font we used to simulate the v-carving on this layout is called:  Palatino Linotype


Note - This hack was assembled in Aspire V8 for presentation purposes.  It could have been done in VCarve Pro V8 or VCarve Desktop.


Why not hack together your own layout mixing and matching models from other projects or from your own library!  For some great inspiration check out our  hacks page!

A new project just in time for Mother's Day


Just in time for Mother's Day we have the 3rd installment of the Mother's Garden series of CNC projects.

A project that contains an orchid model seemed to be a very obvious addition to the Mother's Garden series of projects.  A ribbon that can be easily v-carved with children's names, dates or an event seemed to fit right in, so we included it. Overlaying your layout on the long textured tile will make for a great piece of wall art to be shared with visitors, as a gift or just for yourself.
