I used 1/2 thick black corian and a v60 v bit and a 1/4 carbide 3in long end mill
Most of my machining was 100in/min
Corian is very nice to work with ,but where I am located its very hard to get pieces
I think it makes the best in signs

I'm curious how you do the painting woodman.

Would you mind going into a little detail?

In my head I'm picturing you putting tape or something over the workpiece, and then cutting through that. then paint, then pull off the tape.


*EDIT* should have watched the video... sorry.

If your Corian is white, paint material then carve.
If it's black, cover with adhesive book cover, carve, paint and remove adhesive.

I do it a bit different,i paint the letters twice sand the whole plaque until all the excess paint is gone then i bring the corian back
to its lustre by sanding
