Description:
We had a great time exploring the world of rotary carving mallets during this lesson. We first looked at how to make rotary mallets in VCarve using the moulding toolpath. Then we looked at how to 3D model rotary mallets in Aspire and customize them by adding a textured handle grip. Finally, we looked at how to generate all the needed toolpaths to create it. As always, we also answered lots of great questions from students.
