Wife has been looking on Pinterest, Son loves animals, she suggested I spent this afternoon making birds with him. Great idea but.

She presented me with a box of rusty metal we had found in the house.

Son's well autistic, angle grinders and stick welding didn't seem appropriate.

It's well rusty love, I'll have to clean them all up.

We like the rust, adds character....

Started with this:

Some faffing later...

I've named the last one @selectedgrub , because it reminded me of his avatar, not his work.

Yes, just a load of rusty metal.

But made my son happy.

I have been playing with the cnc router.... If anyone wonders how easy it is, very easy is the answer!! Unlike a 3D printer where there are a myriad of things to get right, these little engraver/routers are a doddle to use

Been playing with new CAD software. Probably not the easiest thing to draw seeing nothing is straight or square to anything else as there are draft angles on all surfaces. Trimming the surfaces was educational to say the least

Let the games begin…


Couple of areas to tidy up,but on the whole very happy. Definetly not a doddle to draw or machine …
