My new toy

[kimbo]

Thats sure going to be time consuming.
I first hogged mine out with the big bits, left a dividing wall for the battery compartment, and then moved on to the dremel for the fine stuff.
Have you perhaps given a thought to the final finish, stabilizing resin, beeswax etc?
So far I can only think of Woodoc 20, probably thinned with turps, in a vacuum chamber.
Hopefully it will seep in far enough to do a decent stabilizing job.

@kimbo ah okay, the chamber and pump isnt a bigie, our stuff is small enough to fit in a whiskey glass.
The fluid's rather scarce and expensive, I've kinda settled on the 50/50 mix too, probably try it out on a driptip first though.

Its impressive how much material you can cut through and the bit stays perfectly straight looks like I'll be buying the same setup.

@kimbo Which model Dremel are you using there bud?

Yea it takes away 1mm with just a slight drop in revs, 2mm you can hear it working but at 3mm it starts to struggle. I presume if you have a better bit it will do 3mm with ease but i just have a cheap Chinese one.

Edit: And it is Lead wood so kinda hard

I was actually worried about the 'press' because they weren't made for that side to side movement, but it looks good on your video though. I'm stoked I can go this route as well now.

Box done, now the door

@kimbo, are you using fat daddy 510?
I have a kui that I'm thinking of demolishing for the parts but I'm not sure it's worth the effort.

I was going to use a KUI 510 but @andro came to the rescue and gave me a BF Fat Daddy

Pretty sweet, I imagine @kimbo must be an absolute master on an Etch-a-Sketch after all the dremel work on the vice.

 

[DoubleD]

[DaveH]
