Carving a spherical Earth with epoxy oceans - 4-sided 3D rotary CNC routing with the Shapeoko
By Dennis Van Hoof, from Top o’ Arts ().
This video shows the process of 4-sided CNC routing a spherical 3D Earth with a diameter of 200 mm (8 inch), using my manual rotary setup for the Shapeoko XXL. The Earth was carved from a solid piece of tree trunk with a diameter of 250 to 300 mm (10 to 12 inch), and the oceans were filled with a layer of 5 mm (1/5 inch) epoxy resin.
Check out the YouTube video where I introduce manual rotary CNC routing with the Shapeoko XXL by carving a koi fish ()
