First project - Cradle project

Here is my first project. Building a cradle for my first grandson. The end caps will be mdf and will be painted. I hope that the paint won’t lose to much detail here.

WOW very nice,have not received my Shapeoko yet. I hope to learn to use it like you.

Very nice! Have you considered painting the panel first, then engraving? It would add some contrast. Just a thought.

A few options here: http://www.shapeoko.com/wiki/index.php/Fabrication_Techniques_%26_Hardware#Engraving

@JeffWimer very cool piece. What tool type did you use?

I used the #301 90 degree v-bit that you can get from Carbide 3D.
