We purchased a CNC Router in early 2025, which is initially located and set up in the garage of one of our members. We are keen to take on carving projects for a very reasonable costs. Any profits support Burlington Men's Shed activities in the community!
The purchase of the CNC router and software was funded thru a grant from Men's Shed Canada.
At Burlington Men's Shed, we are carving meaningful projects with a CNC Router supported by Vetric VCarve design software. The Scienci LongMill Router has a 30" x 30" bed, carving to a depth of 5". It offers incredible versatility for making signs and much More! We use a shop Vac connected to cyclone so it generates minimal dust when carving.
16" x 16" Sign on 3/4" wormwood Maple
Princess Auto was a generous Sponsor to a Men's Shed Day. To recognize their contribution, we made a 20" x 20" certificate of appreciation. Your support can help us make a difference. The Ash wood was clear-coated, then masked. We carved thru the mask and then spray painted the lettering. Removing the mask revealed crisp dark lettering in the clear Ash.
