A Thermwood could be handy
I had to cut and groove some arches with a 27 foot radius. I thought you might get a kick out of my "Router"
Its footprint was a little large so it had to go outside.

Re: A Thermwood could be handy
I like that alot Kerry.
I feel there are 2 kinds of people that use eCabinets, those that have a Thermwood CNC and those of us that dream of having one.
I'm glad it was a clear sky for you.

Jean,
That sign used to say "Kerry Fullington Custom Cabinet" This spring my wife opened a retail Greenhouse and now my sign is sitting behind the shop until I can find a new place for it.

I had a feeling she was involved.

You know when you make a template sometimes you like to keep them. Did you keep it and wear did you put it in the shop

Re: A Thermwood could be handy
I'd recognize that machine anywhere. The KF 1000. From memory it has a tolerance factor of about 1/16" and had a few stability issues.
It's not too bad a model,………….. once it’s up and running.
Sometimes you just wish it didn't take so long to setup and had a bit more flexibility. (Not torsional flexibility, it has plenty of that )
Won't you void your warranty if you don't keep it under cover?

Re: A Thermwood could be handy
George,
I am keeping the pendulum until the job is finished. It never fails that I ruin one of the curved parts pushing them though the shaper.
Josh,
Where would the adventure be with that.
Mark,
This was an experiment, I normally use a pattern to cut these long radius arcs but that too is time consuming. It actually worked pretty well if you don't force anything, the pendulum guided the router to create a nice arc. The Thermwood is still better.

Kerry-
If it is adventure you seek you should take the drive to Connecticut to pick up your next set of templates!
I'll take you to the Empire State building or the Statue of Liberty or wherever you want while you're here, too!
