Making a Parish Pump Planter | Michael Tyler's FREE CNC Project of the Month | Vectric

This project was inspired by Parish Water Pumps that were (and are) located at the heart of many communities throughout the world. It was the responsibility of each parish to provide water for its residents. This was achieved in many cases by means of a village water pump - a.k.a., the Parish Pump.

This Parish Pump Planter makes a nice home decor item and is sure to catch the eye of visitors and guests! The pump handle actually swings up and down in a pumping action, for no reason other than just to add a bit of fun and overall appeal.

I used Vectric Aspire software to create the Pump and Spout models, then exported a single merged STL model for import into Vcarve. A few features used in this project included import Bitmap, Rail Sweep, Moulding Toolpath, Inlay Toolpath, Drawing, and Node editing tools, Snapping features, Fixed Nudge, and the Interactive Trim.
