We've been hearing some pretty sour news about the
economy lately and just last night there was a
segment talking about how retailers were going to be
pulling out all the stops this year to spur sales.
Well Amazon is no exception. As you can see by the graphic below, the BIG sales have already begun. If you are in the need of some great tools, etc, now is the time to buy.
You may be tempted to hold off thinking that the discounts could go even deeper... I'm somewhat tempted to think the same way. BUT, what if a whole bunch of guys decide to buy and the retailer runs out? Chances are they won't be restocking in an effort to hold down inventories.
My advice - if you see something you want or need, and the price is well below market value - BUY IT NOW! You could always give that item as a gift to your favorite woodworker, or maybe gift the favorite recipient you know - YOU!!
Enjoy these deal opportunities.
Being a tool oriented type, great deals from the Home Improvement Store should be of interest to you. Be sure to check out the Tools & Home Improvement Value Center. You can save more than 70% on everything from power tools to plumbing supplies.

Pushing the Holidays
11-Oct-2008 06:57 AM
Because of my upcoming move, the family has decided
to bump up Christmas this year. This means that I
have to get all my presents made a lot sooner than
usual. This is going to be an even bigger task given
all the additional chores I have to do and all the
irons I have in the fire.
Going to keep it simple though and stick with signs. Everyone loves them and even a very personal sign is easy to design and carve out. To make them special, I use some nice woods and put a handsome finish on them.

Some New Clamps
25-Aug-2008 07:35 PM
I happened to run across a video demonstrating some
nifty clamping tools. I always seem to run out of
hands and these clamps look like a fantastic way to
solve a common problem.
Watch the video and then get your own set of Clamp-It Assembly Squares, the
Mini Clamp-It Kit, or a handy-dandy Adjustable Clamp-It Bar.

Wood Carving Machine Tips Interview
04-Mar-2008 04:40 PM
Hello
everyone, I recently did an interview about my
website with Workshop-Buynow.com. I thought you might
be interested in what was asked and my responses.
Q: What is the name of your website?
A: Wood-Carving-Machine-Tips.com
Q: What is your name?
A: Matt Mattelig
Q: Where are you located (city, etc)
A: Clinton Wisconsin
Q: Could you please give us a short summary of your website?
A: This is a website dedicated to helping the cnc wood carving enthusiast develop their skills and knowledge when working with the CarveWright™ and CompuCarve™ cnc woodworking machines.
Q: What inspired you to launch your own website?
A: I love to work with wood and also with computers. The carvewright™ is a perfect marriage of those two passions. It seemed like a good idea to launch a website that would help other hobbyists develop their skills and provide some solutions as well.
Q: When did you launch your website?
A: On Jan-11, 2008
Q: How did you decide on a name for your website?
A: I wanted something that conveyed the site emphasis.
Q: How does your investment of time and money balance against your success?
A: Ha, that's a good question. Given the fact that I'm single, I think I can devote a great deal of effort to this project. In addition, I like what I am doing and have a genuine passion for this subject matter. I hope that my success will follow that passion.
Q: If you had an unlimited development budget for development, how would you change your site?
A: I'd like to hire individuals to translate my work into other languages and create sites to address those different speaking visitors.
Q: If your site got really big, really quickly, would you be able to keep up with the demand?
A: I believe so - in fact I hope so cause I would like to do this as a full time occupation.
Q: What unexpected costs and headaches have you had to deal with?
A: No unexpected costs so far - however, it's been an incredible amount of work just LEARNING what I have to learn in order to do site development, search engine submission, figuring out how to work with email auto responders.... Things like that. The learning curve is quite big and as I get into this more, I'm finding that the piece I DO know is getting smaller and smaller. LOL
Q: What has been your biggest challenge?
A: TIME management
Q: How has running your website differed from your expectations?
A: None so far.
Q: How long have you run the site already, and how long will you continue to keep it up if you don't enjoy big gains in traffic, income or popularity?
A: The site has only been up for a short time, but I plan to keep the site up for as long as people find it useful.
Q: Who is the one person you credit most with your success so far?
A: That would be my good friend Rusty. He has been very instrumental in moving me forward in this project. He is almost as enthusiastic about this as I am. He has a very good way of making sure I keep on task and that I don't wander too far from the goal. He has helped me move forward and steered me in the right direction.
Q: Do you have any last thoughts you would like to leave with your site visitors?
A: That I genuinely appreciate all my visitors and I hope they will let me know if there's anything they would like me to concentrate on. I also ask that they join my free email newsletter and above all - enjoy the site and maybe be patient with me.

On Track and Ready to Go
13-Jan-2008 04:04 PM
Every once in a while, a machine comes along that
revolutionizes and dominates the industry segment it
occupies. This is the case with the CarveWright®
and CompuCarve®
CNC carving machines.
Make no mistake, this isn't just another carving machine... this is a router on STEROIDS!! And this router has a brain - a computer brain.
This is a compact, affordable, table-top machine packed with loads of capabilities.
Even the seasoned pro will marvel at the functions this machine can perform. Add the accessory probe and there is no end to the jobs you can perform. Create new works of art, replace that broken filigree, make signs for your friends... The possibilities are endless.
This machine could easily supplement or replace your current means of income. WOW - Guys, what an easy way to justify this machine to your wife!! You may even finish a couple of those "honey do" jobs. Show her what it can do and let her come up with some ideas for turning your love of woodworking into a steady profit stream.
Traditional hand routers, carving knives, or hand tools can't even come close to the power and precision achieved with this machine.
i've just started my journey with this machine, (although i've been wishing for one for quite a while now). i'm no stranger to woodworking or to CNC machine control. i've spent years working with and programing computers. i've also built a number of machines and created the software code that tell the PLC's (programmable logic controllers) what to do. it's this combination of qualifications that lead me to my purchase. Like all new ideas, the early adapters tend to pay more and experience some "debugging" pains... But the payoff is the EXPERT knowledge one gains in the process.
All one has to do is visit the CarveWright® forum and you'll see just how many people are a part of this exciting movement. Count me as one of those semi-early adopters.
This site is geared with the notion that good things come to those that work for them. Join my mailing list, visit and comment on my blog, and use the links on this site to get yourself one of these woodcutting tools. Watch the videos, and become an expert in your own right.
Thanks for the visit and i hope you'll come back again and again.

It ARRIVES!!!
08-Jan-2008 10:38 AM
Today my CarveWright® machine arrived. it looks
great. UPS delivered it to the store and the outside
packaging is in great shape. usually they tend to
beat up those big heavy boxes but not this time!
i can't wait to open it up but i have to wait. i want to make a video of the process and i won't have time to do that for a couple of days.
boy, i'm going to be tortured every time i walk by it.

Been watching the CarveWright® machine for
almost a year now and i'm very interested in
buying one. also think it could be a good start
to my new venture thinking. will run this idea
past Rusty and see if he agrees.
