How to Make a Pencil Cup with a CNC Router | Mid Century Modern Design
In this video I show how I made a Modern Design Pencil Cup with a CNC Router.
It all started because I wanted to use a Mid Century pattern on some sort of 3D object. I settled on a pencil cup because it was small and if it worked out, it could serve as a gift for the 2017 holiday season.
I used Walnut and Ash, but any contrasting wood species would have worked.
I consider this to be within the “Modern“ style because that is where I took my pattern design cues from. I especially like the work of American furniture designers and furniture manufacturers that influenced the design world in the 1950’s and early 1960’s. A few of my favorites are Charles and Rae Eames, and George Nelson. Also companies like Herman Miller and Heywood Wakefield. I will admit that I have a real passion for Modernistic design!
I know some people have the opinion that CNC machining is not “real“ woodworking. If you have a similar opinion, please take a close look at this project. I designed this specifically for CNC. Although not impossible, the organic shapes may have been difficult to produce with other types of woodworking tools. Note: I do not consider this to be a DIY project.
