Dive sign gets a turn

I excitedly got to the shop today to get the start of the Dive Sign going. I had already created all the vectors and the 3d helmet a couple of weeks back. Now that the router was free, I was going to get it cut today. I hadn't toolpathed the relief, which I thought that I had, so that kind of slowed me down at the start. But before long, I had the signfoam screwed down, and our Technocnc fired up. While that was running away, I was able to toolpath the rest of the parts that needed cutting. A couple of hours later, the parts were all machined and I started getting the primer on. This has been quite fun, from the design concept, right to the machining. I look forward to seeing it finished. Soon Jamie, soon.
