the skill of being able to do it one’s self. Something is missing….hmmm, oh, iknow! it ’s the human factor. it would be like riding in a computerized car or on a motorcycle that you didn’t have to drive. I know what Frank is saying about it not being woodworking…the art and skill is gone out of it. I think i’ll stick with my shop tools….but it might be fun to play with. if you send it out to be serviced you are out of operation….there goes all your tools. i wonder how strong it is…how long it lasts before servicing. and i can’t imagine using a router to plane a board to thickness or rip a board or many basic woodworking operations. I can’t imagine using it for production….like a big dot matrix printer…time consuming. too much tearing, though it’s micro tearing…it shows as a fuzzy texture, and hard to do fine detail. I know there have been duplicator machines for carving out there before…and routers don’t do a very clean job. would like to talk with someone who has one of these machines. Now, maybe that was in the drawings, that the templates chosen don’t have much detail in them or the machine isn’t capable of doing fine detail.

but several things are not clear to me: the detailing of the carvings were not as in depth, precise as i would like. Well, i saw the video at Carve Wright and what i’m most impressed with is the translation of computer drawings to material.
