I've not used a Carvewright so don't know the specifics of what it wants for input data, but assuming its not just pure GCode, if someone can point me to a guide on how to format code for it I have...
congrats bill :)
There's several impressive entries here, but um...dang Bill. That's probably one of the most impressive projects I've seen posted in quite awhile, contest or otherwise.

Had hoped to be able to photograph/film mine today, but the finish wasn't *quite* to the point I want it, so put one last coat on. Wheres the fun if you aren't running things down to the last minute...
Good to see a few more entries popping up. Hayes, that logo is better than I could have done freehand on a curved surface, no forgiveness needed there :)
Bill, love that roundover on the inside, coupled with the lighter wood gives it a remarkably soft/plush look.
Dick, excellent job on the video. And those hinges are just really impressive in...
yep, I grabbed a rattle can of spray lacquer yesterday for the labyrinth part, didn't want to have to clean my spray guns for that small a project.
That stain really makes yours pop, the uniform...
hinges attached, latch mechanism tested to be 100% functional :) Little more sanding to do until I can start putting finish on, but wanted to see how things were going to look so sprayed with...

Got everything in clamps now, so on to putting on the finish (probably Waterlox) tomorrow. Very nearly assembled the lid without finishing the interior. Had just put glue on pieces and started to...

That's probably the nicest router bit storage I've ever seen, sure beats my "drop them in a drawer" method I currently use :)
Finished the latch mechanism, hinges, and some minor inlay bits last...
Why not make up templates for each door size, glue or clamp them in place, then route with a bushing or top bearing bit? It should guarantee you get everything just right as long as nothing slips....
got the inlay banding trimmed and sanded flush, and spent most of the day fiddling with the latch bits. *almost* have them ready to be fully assembled into place I think. They seem to be working ok...

And here I was thinking the exact same thing :)
Not quite as much progress today as I'd wanted, but at least the sides are cut and dadoed, so tomorrow can do the work on the latch setup.

those hinges are really neat, probably my favorite part of that design :) I'm going to have to keep linkages like that in mind for future projects.
Back out to the shop this afternoon, so...
Yep - been wanting to try this general idea for awhile now, and the contest is a great excuse to actually get started. Plan is the bb will have to be in the goal position (which will be bottom center...
Looking really nice Bill - the sawblade and drop shadow are a great touch.
Going to be a couple days before I get back out to the shop, so figured I'd post the small update since then, walls are...

Not entirely sure I'll have time to finish this, but figured I'd go ahead and get started and see how far I can go. The box itself wont take too long, but I still have to build the overly complex...
