Free dxf Rocking Chair file for wood jigsaw puzzles and CNC machines

Another quick project for you to make and another free dxf file for you to download. This free dxf is the wood rocking chair jigsaw puzzle. feel free to download it below but if you change it or make something cool with it please drop me a line because i am always interested in what people make from my models.

Here in the image below is the model that i had drawn in 3d in the badog cad interface. This allows me to see the rocking chair wood puzzle before i cut it out. It also helpe line up the plates and decide how to position the pieces so that there is not much wasted wood after i cut.

I think the most important part of making these files is to make sure that all the pieces fit together correctly. this is obvious but it must you use a CNC machine before it’s not evident. Using the correct techniques and tools eliminates the need to file him down afterwards and have square corners or to use tols that are way too small and takes way too much time to cut such a simple file. in the beginning to start out with a large tool but found that the pieces didn’t fit together correctly so spent hours filing them just so they would fit. I didn’t know that all I had to do was use a smaller tool you see below in the image i had programmed a very small tool in which the software compensates automatically so that I don’t lose time. the problem is the tool is very fragile and he have to go slower than with a big tool.

Once I program which tool are wanted to use, I just had to define the depth of the cut, the speed of the tool, and the software automatically wrote the G- code file for me. You can see by using a CNC machine like my badog cnc and using this method of automatically compensating for the tool I was able to do this project in less than an hour. This project by hand would’ve taken quite a long time for me to make.

after I said the zero on my badog x3 the machine can start to cut the pieces. sometimes I cut of the pieces in the beginning with the router bit but lately I’ve been using a press hammer which scars and material and I can push it out by hand in the softwood.

This simple project allows us to see how quickly we can turn an idea into a finished model. The entire project only took an hour from start to finish I only broke to tools LOL. feel free to download the free dxf below that is compatible with all CNC machines if not you can write a letter and I can translate into whatever file you need. if you do use a small remembered to send a message or picture to let me know how turnout for you. If you have any questions comments or anything to feel free to contact me in my contact form.
