© 2018 ToolsToday

For Your Safety

1. The methods illustrated here are only intended for use with a CNC machine.
2. Make certain that the workpiece is secured and that all components of the fixture are securely fastened to the table.
3. Use a guard, eye and hearing protection at all times.

Dom Riccobene machines this Rainbow Landscape from padauk, hard maple and purple heart on a birch plywood strata using Amana Tool® CNC router bits. Landscape modeled after a valley in New Mexico. Filmed in 4K.

This museum-quality Rainbow Landscape was modeled in Cinema 4D and cut on a Patriot 4' x 8' CNC machine by DMS. Cycle time was approximately one hour for roughing and approximately 4 hours for the finishing process.
