Plywood Panel

The idea is that dynamic surfaces and pattern tend to be increased as there is the presence of human being. The point at which a person stands is called a centre. The further the distance from the centre, the larger dimensions the circle and cross.

It took about 2 hours to complete milling my pattern because my design nearly came to depth limit. In order to push the processing gained faster, Tom decided to re-orient milling each of the cross instead of the whole pattern. It is important to recognise that it will take longer time to complete milling the complexity of workpieces that requires deeper depth and more curves.

Particularly, the plywood panel shows different contour lines with different colors due to the combination of wood layers. These contours are not able to be seen in my surface design, but making the completed plywood panel more interesting and stunning.

In general terms, the cost is the first thing people consider. The price which has to be paid for the time of fabrication process becomes a tie breaker. The fee for using CNC machines is more expansive than the conventional machines. However, due to the application of high technology, a mistake of fabrication operated by CNC machines rarely occurs at normal operation. The consistency of workpieces produced is much better than workpieces made by conventional machine tools.

The CNC machines can generate very complex motions, making it possible to create complicated shapes which cannot be generated (or are extremely difficult to generate) by conventional machine tools.
