I set the MultiCam in motion routing the streetcar from a piece of 1.5" 30 lb Precision Board. Even after more than four years of running the machine I can't resist sneaking into the router room to watch the MAGIC happen. A streetcar appeared on the table in less than an hour.
The bottom of the sign was created as a separate file. First came the vector files, then the 3D reliefs were created including our famous textures. It didn't take more than twenty minutes to create the routing file - complete with tool paths. When the streetcar was finished I put the MultiCam into gear once more...
Things were looking pretty cool. I'll show how it went together in the next installment...
