Winston Moy | Tool Changes and Image Vectorization - Shapeoko Journey Ep. 17 @WinstonMakes | Uploaded 10 years ago | Updated 3 hours ago
I did a pair of proof-of-concept projects last weekend, using some basic techniques that every CNC noob (like myself) ought to try at least once.
Disclaimer: I kind of suck at using Inkscape, so treat this video as more of a suggestion than a tutorial... If however you are an Inkscape pro, please chime in down below with any tips.

My rock climbing friend wanted a custom nut tool, so I designed one and machined a prototype on my Shapeoko. It was a journey fraught with pitfalls but I saw the process through to the end.
FOR THE RECORD: Superglue and tape would NOT work on the second side after the flip because theres almost zero flat surface area left at the level of the stock face. Also, I put out a video about CA Glue/Masking Tape a month before NYC CNC did. Trust me, I know about the technique... 😒
ALSO: A nut tool is NOT load bearing, so there is no safety concern about using this.
