Hi peopz, really glad I joined this group lot’s of cool stuff here, so I just wanted to make my first share.
I took this idea from someone else online, don’t know who as it was a just a google image search, used Inkscape to trace bitmap, exported as .DXF and opened with Cambam and after designing created the gcode.
I changed the font and added some Carbon Fibre Vinyl to really make it Pop, it turned out ok, I would have wanted some black nuts but didn’t have any and used 3mm mdf plates.
It looks really cool. I think gold/brass nuts would be nicer than black nuts, as they would complement the gold colour of the Vader cutout. I like the idea to use vinyl on top for your colouring. Really nice work.
There’s not actually a great deal of electronics in the actual cutting/engraving area. Except a small circuit board on the Y-rail near the stepper. If your exhaust system was decent enough, wouldn’t most of the carbon particles by extracted?
Also, if carbon fibre gives off carbon particles, wouldn’t it be the same for wood, as wood is high in carbon content?
