The Solunar Box

I’m Michael Tyler and since January 2011 I have been creating Vectric’s Free monthly projects. I’ve made everything from spring wreaths and mantle clocks to snow sledges and cheeseboards.

Did you know there are already over 100 projects free for Vectric customers to take advantage of and we’re working on more every month! 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. Plus all free projects since 2018 come with their own video that tells the story of the project from start to finish.

The project uses a V-Bit to cut the delicate engraving. For best results, it is important that you surface your spoilboard flat and that you use stock that is an even thickness.

A few of the software features used while designing this project included the Trace Bitmap, Drawing and Node editing tools, Snapping features, Boundary Create, and the Interactive Trim (scissors tool).

Which Vectric software do I need to be able to open the free project files?
