  • Couple questions. First, is there a reason you manually focus instead of auto? Second, is there a reason why you didn't start the project squared up in the upper left hand side of the grid?

  • Hello, that turned out really nice.

    does the wood have some kind of satin finish on it?

    I think a pale wood like Ash or Maple could look nice also.

  • Wow that's amazing. How long would this job have taken?

  • Nice video, next time put it on VERY, VERY fast foward ;-)

  • With this machine, would a chopping block be able to fit in there if it's 3.5 inches thick? I am trying to do research on what type or size machine to get. My products are 19 x 16 x 3.5

  • use 600 dpi... speed 70 and power 100... picture has to be good quality... and yooll be set...

  • wow i can never seem to get this kind of finish from my woods. What settings did you use how much power and speed i have legend 36ext 45watts. did you run the image through a program like photograv... did you use 300dpi or 600dpi? did u active the 3d option ...
