Welcome to the Labs sessions!
Here at Vectric we all love to make stuff, so we thought we would share our inspiration, designs and the CNC process with our community by sharing the projects we make.
Each project comes with its own video for you to watch that tells the story of what we’re making from start to finish. Including technical software footage, machining the parts in the Labs, finishing the projects and we’ll even throw a few tips in based on our experiences.
Each project comes with the file(s) for you to download, along with a PDF document that highlights some of the key important steps to help you get through your project.
Go ahead and try out one of the projects out for yourself and share what you have made on the Vectric Forum!
Happy Making!
Tim is back with another fun project, this time he's making use of some of the new features released in V11 to make a multi-material project full of cheesy goodness... well sort of. This one is fun for the whole family and a great way to learn more about the latest enhancements to the software.
Tim walks you through his design process, starting out with one sheet to do his master design and then breaking out the parts onto their own sheets. Tim adds a bit of a twist, he will be using his laser for one of the parts. If you don't have a laser stay calm, Tim has included both the vectors for his laser cut and also one you can use on your CNC.
Another new feature Tim has utilized is rest machining, this allows for some extra detail to be added to the broccoli-playing pieces.
To showcase the final design with different colors and finishes Tim has used the toolpath preview colors he can better help visualize the final parts.
In addition, Todd has taken Tim’s thoughts about “being creative” and shows you how to make a child-friendly pizza cutter so the imaginative play can feel even more real! The pizza cutter file and PDF are included in this project download!
We hope you enjoy these projects and all the features of V11!
