Does anyone have a project file for a simple wooden box project they would be willing to share. I'm looking for something in the 12 x 10 x 4" range.

Thanks

Take a look here at the Vectric forum projects, all ready designed and toolpath (always check) with a full how-to documentation http://www.vectric.com/WebSite/Vectric/projects/projects.htm

Would be really simple to design something...if I had time.

What about the paradise box?

I downloaded the paradise box, And I'm going to build it just for fun. I was just looking for a simple box. I guess I could modify the paradise box to my dimensions and get rid of the VCarves. I was hoping for something with dove tails.

Thanks

Dove tails wouldn't be hard. Do you have an overhang to place your board vertical or how will you get the corners square?

I don't quite follow your question. My machine can cut beyond the front of my table.

Ok so you will clamp your board out there and cut the pins and tails. Sounds good. Hmmm. Have to think about that a bit. The good news is, I am going to pick my new stinger 1 tomorrow!

Dovetails require vertical clamping otherwise the bit would make a round hole.
