2nd large print underway (Aspen Grove)
the print after four blocks
I've completed printing four blocks (of 12 total blocks) onto six 77 x 42 inch sheets (image 75 x 40 inches) and it's going... Well... Interestingly! I'm clearly very much on the steep part of the learning curve and my printing's more or less out of control at the moment -- even so, this looks like it'll be a pretty nice image of the dense aspen grove next to my parents' home in Colorado.

Hi Mike,
I'm not seeing the "out of control" part, but I'm not watching you print, either! I lived in Northern New Mexico for several years, so your Aspen Grove print is bringing back sweet memories for me.

Hi Mike...the print is looking good, can't wait to see the final stage...we want more video !!!! thanks for putting these up !!
Mike, if the wood is walnut veneer, what is the core made of? Yep, I'm still slowly trying to work my way towards producing some cnc routed prints of my own.
