We are publishing a photograph of one of the latest jobs that we have constructed this week. Is a plan and an application made whole and from the outset by Panos my son who after sufficient training in ArtCam Pro and after many hours and many test samples in this program, tells me that now has well understood the philosophy of the program and now wants to build all the 3D Signs inscriptions with this program. With the help of the owner of Delcam Hellas, and making changes in the post processor program, now Gerber Sabre 408 works perfectly well and very quickly upon the 3D. Panos now has a dream to visit and to know from near the Dan Sawatsky who admires so much for the job. I think when we find the time from the job until the summer to succeed ..!

Very Nice! A really unique looking piece.

Very nice, Peri!
What is the finish on it? Was it all done with the same cutter and one toolpath, or were the prism letters & trident a different cutter?
Posted by Periandros Damoulis (Member # 4473) on :
Thank you Sam and Ian. Ian all is done with same cutter and one toolpath. The sign have diameter 90cm. The finish is a new gold and coper color from Finland.

Beautiful!

An absolute masterpiece!! I could just sit and look at that piece for hours.

Very nice!
What material?
Posted by Kelly Thorson (Member # 2958) on :
I love the background textures. The piece is very sophisticated and yet fun. The play between the smooth graphics and the textured background works great and the simple but rich colours set it off perfectly. How long did it take to set up the file and how long for the machine to carve it?

Excellent Work Panos!
Wow Dan, another shot in Router Wars coming from yet another part of the World! Look Out Man!

Thanks to all for the good words... The material is HDU , the time to finish a design and the setup is 3 hours and the time to machine is 7 1/2 hours.. My son Panos is 20 years old but work in my shop part time from 14 yars ols and full time 2 years now. Thanks Periandros & Panos Damoulis

This is one awesome piece Periandros & Panos!!! And this is the type of work routers can produce effortlessly.
May Router Wars echo the world over... because the sign industry will be the better for it!!!

Great looking job. The texture adds tremendously to the overall look. ArtCam is a super program, but I am still in the process of learning it.
It's good to see some more folks in Router Wars - aim your work at the south west corner of Canada. Grandpa Dan needs a few hits every now and then.
And I would suggest that you and your son make the trip to Dan's workshop. You will never be the same again. And I guess that's a good thing.

Thank you all for your good words and comments. In the next few days will photograph all the pieces of the pilot we built over the course of learning and testing ArtCam for your feedback. This area has exceptional people here, and artists. Thank you very much. Periandros & Panos Damoulis

Great work Peri and Panos, good to see things are going OK, what paint is that from Finland? Dickursby? or something else, is it waterbased?
Keep posting pics!
