Nice thread, lots of cool stuff going on here!

David, You are quickly becoming a LowRider animal, I love the projects. Each one is different, multiple setups and turning the material. Dang.

Was this sign made all with the same bit or did you have to change it? How much carving time?

Thanks,

Steve

I normally cut them in one pass with a 1/8" endmill. This one I did a roughing pass with a 1/4" compression endmill. And a finish pass with a 1/8" upcut endmill. Runtime ended up being the same at two hours.

The full cut with the tool change at 14:40 is on YouTube. 45 minutes snack suggested.
