Shaper Origin Inlay Tutorial

[@chrismpick]

Thanks Ramon. I'm considering the Shaper, so I found your video useful to understand the potential.

[@ramonartful]

I have more coming soon…this thing is vastly versatile! Much thanks.

[@quieroverduras]

This video is fantastic. I really like the way you incorporated all the tips to repair problems we will run into. You also made the video very entertaining. Great job, Ramon!

[@ramonartful]

Thanks a ton for that feedback! Yeah, these thin veneers are easy to…simply bump and end up cracking em! Plus I wanted to show how easy it is to make perfect seams. 🙏🏼

[@ramonartful]

I had fun making this! I figured out some key points to working with commercial veneer and the Shaper Origin! Glad you liked it! Much thanks!

[@f28sailor]

very nice work and video

[@ramonartful]

Thanks! It’s a fun project

[@edehrenwlad1408]

Thank you for sharing. Always learning.

[@ramonartful]

Thanks a lot. We’re all learning!🙏🏼

[@TheWoodworker1966]

The nuance here between tool cabilith, woodcraft, and results is really good.. Despite your tool you were gluing, stabilizing, recognizing issues ahead of time.

[@ramonartful]

Thank you for those comments and noticing those points. I appreciate it !

[@jimpeterson3633]

I use a Festool track saw to cut my veneer for my straight joinery. I love your video. Thanks

[@ramonartful]

Sounds like a great idea! Thanks for watching. 🙏🏼

[@shawnkirsch]

Can’t wait to make one! 😉

[@ramonartful]

I know your version would be awesome!

[@stevesshaperorigin9174]

Thanks so much for this video! Great explanations. I can't wait to ty out these techniques.

[@ramonartful]

Great to hear the feedback! It’ll be great to see what you make!

I would drill 3 reference holes, and corners in addition to the middle reference line.

[@whales302]

If the black cactus in considered the positive and you cut it on the outside with a negative -0.002 offset, what were the shaper settings for the pocket on the blue background? I missed that somewhere in your video.

[@ramonartful]

It's been a while...but if I remember correctly, I kept all of the cuts at -.002" offset...pocket cuts and insert pieces. This is 1/42" thick (thin 😬) (.024") veneer so I was about .028 - .030" deep with the cut...using a 1/16" down cut spiral bit, with the Shaper Origin on 4 speed. I believe that I used the default speeds for plunging and bit travel and mostly in auto mode. You can see more of this process at another video I did on commercial veneer with the SO. Thanks a ton. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eaWnipmMnaacb7s

[@michaelguthrie]

first off I think that you did a beautiful job and I learned a few new tricks as well but... The National Monument called Shiprock is in western New Mexico but what new Mexico doesn't have are Saguaro cactus which are also shown in the piece. but like I said awesome work.

[@ramonartful]

We can compromise. 😬 Shiprock is absolutely in the western part of the state…I can see it from where I live. And true…there are no 🌵 cacti there…it’s called artist interpretation 😬

[@michaelguthrie]

@@ramonartful - nice! A fellow New Mexican. I was born and raised in Western New Mexico in Grants. Keep up the good work Ramon!

[@pctatc66]

This is the one I have been waiting for! Its a shame my mother moved away from Albuquerque last year. I would have loved to have taken a class with you up north!

[@ramonartful]

I am thrilled to be sharing this! Thanks man…that would have been cool

[@rodrigovillegas9163]

espectacular Ramon

[@ramonartful]

¡Gracias! ¡Aprendí mucho!

[@rodrigovillegas9163]

Hola Ramon me gustaría saber si haz ensayado hacer inlay con shaper origen usando en vez de madera cuero de diferentes colores gracias y el jueves fue espectacular la sección con la gene de shaper e Felicito?

[@ramonartful]

Gracias por estar allí el jueves... ¡fue divertido! Y me gusta tu idea con el cuero! Lo intentaré... si funciona y hago un video... te daré todo el crédito por la idea.

[@rodrigovillegas9163]

ok ramón quedo pendiente cualquier cosa con gusto estoy para servirte

[@Andy-iw9su]

Did you freehand the images into adobe or a similar program?

[@ramonartful]

I’ve done a lot in Inkscape but for this particular project, I worked with one of the guys at Shaper who created the files, since it was a project now available on ShaperHub. Thanks

[@a91customs]

Ah, here it is!

[@ramonartful]

Finally! I’ve been working on this project for months! So excited to see what others create! Thank you tons !

[@Planet_Brent]

Love your work, but wondering whether a $200 Cricut wouldn't make some of these cuts easier. ;-)

[@ramonartful]

I’d sure like to see that! The Shaper Origin sure is fun to use…not sure I would describe it as hard! 😬🤷🏼‍♂️ thanks

[@MorZaiderman]

awesome

[@ramonartful]

Thanks!
