Here is the "turn table" top. wedged a small piece of bass in to see if the wedges would work.
They seem good so far. I cut the wedge at 10 degrees.
The whole top is removable, I really want...
Its coming together...
I am not sure how much I'll use the tilt top, so I opted to make 3 oak dowel pegs to secure the position.
I measured out every 10 degrees to 90, plus 45.
I drilled the...
Here are the hinged pieces, I used the straightest cheap 2x4's I could find.
I bought the largest hinge width that would fit on the 2x4.
Recessed the 2x4's and the hinges sit flush...
I will have...
The front and back are glued and screwed.
Notice the rail at the bottom, I'll put some floating slats on the rails to support added weight.
I'll post more pics tomorrow

I started the bench, I decided to make the top 2' x 4' because that it the size of the 3/4" birch ply I have on hand. I will be gluing two pieces together so the top is 1.5" thick.
Benches seem to...
Thanks guys, great advice.
I'll have to checkout the book by Chris Pye.
I'll post some pics when I get it done.
It might not be for a month or two.
All,
I'm a carving newbie...
I am going to build a carving bench.
My plan is to build one similar to a picture I saw on the internet (homemadetools.net/forum/homemade-carving-bench-8152).

I like to wipe a thick coat of 50/50 lacquer/thinner, then wipe off the excess.
I leave it outside for a few hours to dry (cause the wife doesn't like the smell :) )
Hi All,
I have an issue that is becoming worse. I hope someone can shed some light.
I have an Epilog Mini set up with a HP laptop and Corel. When I start working I send jobs to the laser...
Dave, Rich,
Great conversation... yes, the machines have their own lenses that I am comparing, same specifications...
Off to read the thread that Rich linked to...
Thanks!
Hi All,
I have two Epilog laser machines, a Helix and a Mini. Both are practically the same (except power)... run from the same driver, both have the same firmware loads, etc...
I set up a...
Can you make it a downloadable executable for those who don't always have access (or reliable access) to the web!
Don,
Break the fish scale pattern up so that you have individual scales (or create a single scale with a fill pattern). Create a row of scales and group. Then start building your rows on top of...
Hey Mike,
Looks nice. What color fill did you use? paint?, rub-n-buff?
Dave
I am having a little issue, hope you guys/gals can help!
I am processing a RGB bitmap in prep for lasering on Alder wood.
My process: I apply the Vignette in Corel, re-save the photo, then...

I ran this through "Find my Font" and had no luck... any ideas?
thanks

I have been experimenting with a different approach... It worked out okay, however not what I initially wanted.
I made an assortment of trunks, limbs, and branches, probably a total of 15... ...
Hi all.... looking for a little advice on how to create a tree silhouette for laser cutting (not rastering). I have found a lot of tree silhouettes online that raster fine, but not really that...
same as Ed... wish it had a job estimator!
any Pics? I am interested in seeing how the cuts came out
Dan,
This is interesting... I did a big order of beer mugs at (70% gray, 70 power, 70speed, 300dpi), they came out pretty good but I wasn't happy, I tried the dish soap trick and it helped a...
Bill,
Do you have the original picture? I want to process the original and see if what I get is close to the file you posted.
Sometimes I have problems getting a good conversion, it may be the...
I guess the real question is: Does a dithered Gray scale yield a better picture than a conversion to Monochrome using PLP? I think it may depend on the substrate. I have found that a substrate like...
I did a comparison between running an 8-bit gray scale with tone adjustments and the same picture processed with PLP.
The Gray scale pic had "hash marks" or a matrix of "dots" throughout the...
