I have been incorporating some new technology in my work. These photos show some of the process from digital modeling to CNC milling, laser cutting and 3-D printing. I am enjoying the contrast between cutting edge and age-old technologies. The precision of computer guided machining juxtaposed to the handmade is compelling, as well. Some finished work with digitally fabricated trays are at the end of the show. More to come…
There is a short video of the CNC mill in action here.
