It’s a ManSpace World 26 Aug 2013 | 03:38 am
Father’s Day is closing in surprisingly fast – hope you are more organised than I am! I’ve been talking with the MD and editor for ManSpace, and we have arranged a small prize for Stu’s Shed readers....
It’s Life Jim, But Not as We Know It 25 Aug 2013 | 05:01 pm
Yesterday got a bit busier than I was hoping, so last night I worked on the computer for a while to fine-tune a couple of vector designs ready for the CNC machine. The first is a traditional Japanese...
Proving Itself, Time and Again 24 Aug 2013 | 06:28 am
I’m sure I have revisited the Festool CXS before, but each and every time there is a project that makes good use of it, the CXS shines. It is surprising just how many times there has been particular ...
To Store or Not, That is the Question 23 Aug 2013 | 04:21 pm

The next issue has just hit the letterboxes of subscribers, and will soon be on the shelves of magazine shops around the place. This issue marks the last produced by the founding editor, Jonathan Gree...
Plotting the End of Days 18 Aug 2013 | 01:11 pm
Given we are still here, guess that yet another “End of Days” has quietly slipped on past. However, the Mayan calendar (or is it Aztec?) is still one of the challenging images that are sent to CNC ma...
First Cut 17 Aug 2013 | 03:38 pm
This was a first go with the CNC Shark Pro. I must admit I didn’t watch any instructional videos or read instructions- I tend to jump in and work things out for myself! Once I have a bit of a concept...
The First Computer Controlled Blow has been Struck 17 Aug 2013 | 08:50 am
No photos yet (will take some this afternoon), but I’ve successfully run my first couple of jobs on the CNC Shark. It was remarkably easy, at least in the sense of creating a basic design in VCarve, ...
