NOTE: The Carvey is not compatible with the 3D Carving feature available in Easel Pro.The Carvey uses a free web-based platform called Easel. Easel allows you to create original designs, or you can import SVG files of your logo or vector design. Because Easel is web-based, you can create & save designs at home and then log in to your Inventables account in the Idea Lab to carve them with staff assistance.
The Carvey has a build area of 11.6” x 8” x 2.5”. Material height + depth of cut can not exceed 2.5″.
Two-tone HDPE tiles in a variety of colors are available for purchase in the Idea Lab.
