๐พ Create custom hanging racks for leashes, coats, hats, or anything you want to organize! This beginner-friendly lesson guides you through designing and cutting personalized wall racks. Learn how to create unique shapes like an oval base with a dog paw print cutout, using techniques such as drawing ellipses, vectorizing clip art, and welding shapes together. Kyle demonstrates how to add custom text, arrange multiple hook locations with even spacing, and efficiently generate toolpaths. The lesson covers using VCarve toolpaths for engraving and profile toolpaths for cutting out the final shape. Discover valuable tips on choosing the right V-bit, optimizing toolpath settings for speed and quality, and understanding ramp and lead-in/out strategies to protect your bits and spoilboard. These projects are perfect for using up scrap wood and making thoughtful, custom gifts.
