Joe Lovchik has spent his whole life creating things. His artistic talent was discovered at a very young age as he was always drawing pictures and, even today, it is rare not to find a sketch of something on his desk that he has mindlessly doodled. Joe’s passion for art led him to earn a Bachelors of Fine Arts degree from Wichita State University. During his early years in college, Joe worked as an art director for a major sportswear company where he gained knowledge in industry marketing and brand management. His career was further expanded as he spent the next 10 years working as Art Director for advertising agencies specializing in brand development. One such brand was a side project for his brother Chris, the inventor of a new personal-sized CNC now known as the CarveWright System.
Eventually persuaded to move to Texas, Joe became the Marketing Director for CarveWright. Since joining LHR full-time in 2007, he has played several key roles in its growth including development of the company website, marketing and sales materials, creation of learning tools, videos and tutorials, and conceptualization of new product development. His knowledge and expertise in graphics software has allowed him to help guide the software developers in their advancement of the CarveWright software. Using these resources, Joe has become one of the foremost experts for the CarveWright System.

I’ve seen over the years several customers playing with mold making with their CarveWright systems. The machine is so perfect for doing this kind of thing, but I had never experimented with it, until now. I’m going to explore actually making a complete product all the way to the packaging, using the machine to make…

Doug Haffner began making signs and props in his garage shop just for fun, and fun they are. As it turns out, he was really good at it and people began wanting to give him money for his enjoyment. His part-time play quickly turned it into a full-time business, and Haffner’s Fantastic Creations was born.
CarveWright is the ultimate prop making tool. Paired with a 3D printer in this project, this lighted mage staff was a total hit.

This CarveWright CNC project is a unique photo frame that can be displayed on a bookshelf or credenza! The carved front heart doors, when opened, reveal the photo and form a tripod-like support so that the frame can stand upright on its own. It’s a great gift item for loved ones anytime, and is especially…
In my virtual travels around the net, I occasionally come across something that blows my mind. Recently this happened, and I discovered it was being done with a CarveWright. I try to keep up with the world of 3D fabrication in general. With all the recent 3D printers and CNC machines flooding the market it…
