If you’re looking for a special accent for a box, bench or cabinet, a CNC router allows easy access to the world of metal inlay. Metal inlay is so appealing because it sets up a contrast between the alluring colors and seamless form of metal against the visually complex and warm organic background of wood. So, let’s explore how to add this fun and relatively simple technique to your CNC equipped shop.

for holding down you could also use the painters tape method! stick painters tape onto your spoil board, stick painters tape underneath your metal workpiece, then add super glue in between the 2. it dries very fast, provides a very strong bond and is as easy as just removing the tape when you are done. no water necessary! I have recently discovered your channel and I am loving the CNC content being a cnc owner myself. I also must say that the way your articulate the process is among the best I've seen on youtube thus far.

3m Super 77 spray adhesive works pretty well for a quick hold down. Great video!

Thanks for the tip!

At 16:40 in the transcript, you mentioned that you would get back to letting us know a good way to finish up the copper in the lid. I did not see that followed up later in the video. Can you let us know how you cleaned up the copper?

@conormcmenemie5126 Год назад

Another very useful heads-up on spring cleaning and domestic chores. Fore-warned is fore-armed.

I know, two people already asked but maybe 3rd time is a charm, I googled precision chuck for router and nothing came up. Where do you get these?

@joewelling3278 3 месяца назад

Very interesting concept, Where did you get the collet for the smaller bits ?

@Christian-tj5hz Год назад

Where did you get the aftermarket collet/chuck? I have a Makita router (RT0700) on my CNC, which is similar to your Dewalt. Anyone else got any tips on this point - I want to move away from the stock Makita solution.

If you want to make your aluminum rails shine, you can use some mag and aluminum polish. Probably won't make it work much better, but it sure will make the rails pretty.

@Silverturky Год назад

also! Where did you get the aftermarket chucks for the router?! I'd love to get some for my dewalt DW618

@RodneyBrumley Год назад

Good stuff, thanks for the video. Where can I buy the collet you are using?

@markroles7304 2 года назад

Maybe I missed it in your great video, but what size difference is the pocket of the wood inlay compared to the size of the size of the metal?

@rubenreynaga1572 Год назад

great info. question did you cut inlays in one pass or two passes ?

@daleromney6062 2 года назад

This was really good, exactly what I was looking for. My questions are: 1) where did you purchase that round over bit? 2) What is a good source for the metal sheets?

@spuddiver 2 года назад

Thanks for the video, very informative and well put together. Just wondering for those of us wanting to buy same collect you show in this video. Where did you buy yours from or perhaps give a part number so can search for suppliers here in Europe. Thanks

@neobikes 2 года назад

11:00 a mistake! CA is rapidly reacting with organic especially celulose, one should apply it to metal side and try to perfectly and fast press it into wood.

@p8ntblr1 Год назад

Wouldn't a downcut bit yield cleaner results?

CNC is not woodworking. Don't understand why "Woodshop" is so gung ho on CNC. CNC certainly has a position in my shop, but it isn't woodworking. Woodworking starts with raw materials, uses creativity, design, and joinery to "work" it, then moves on to sanding, finishing, and stepping back to feel proud of what you have done with your hands. CNC fits in there where???

@WoodsmithShowandmagazine 2 года назад

All of those steps occur in the projects that Chris is showing in these episodes. I'll do whatever it takes to get folks excited about making things with wood and expressing their creativity. Different strokes for different folks.

@daleromney6062 2 года назад

I disagree. And I usually start with raw materials and use a combination of tools along with my CNC.

@toddholm408 2 года назад

Then don’t watch CNC videos dude. Using your definition the only people who are woodworkers are people who cut down trees (true raw material) mill it, and dry it. Then, apparently without tools of any kind because you never mention the use of any kind of tool, design and shape an original, creative object using only naturally occurring (raw materials) stains and finishes (walnut oil and bacon grease). I get that some people prefer woodworking with hand tools or even limited power tools. Old school carvers have amazing skills in my book, but that doesn’t take anything away from what he is showing us. Hobbyists enjoy making things and we like to give them as gifts. Not everyone has spent a lifetime honing skills, that doesn’t make them less than. This is a different way of working with wood. If it’s not your way, okay, RU-vid is full of non-CNC woodworking videos watch and enjoy them. Don’t diminish what others are doing just because it isn’t the way you do it. If a parent cooks for a family and makes them spaghetti and meatballs using premade sauce and boils up spaghetti noodle from a box do you say that isn’t cooking because they didn’t make the sauce and the noodles from scratch? Come on brother, do your thing and let the rest of us do our thing.

@montanaflyer1147 2 года назад

@@toddholm408 good points. I agree, I’m an old schooler, and enjoy getting my hands dirty. Others may enjoy watching automation do it for them. Who am I to criticize.

@orbit308 Год назад

Nobody said you had to use one. To each his own. Your opinion might mean something to you, but less than nothing to others who probably enjoyed this video.
