Wow!!! Brian it is fabulous. Thanks for showing what can be acheived with the Curio.

My Curio arrived just before we came away on our extended bank holiday. I have to wait until we are home Monday before I can play with it.

I'm putting a little video together with some tips for using the Curio for marquetry, I'll link it once it is complete.

This is another sample I created, this is a mahogany frame with anigre inlaid text.

I bought the veneer from ebay, it was around £20 for about 20 sheets of various types/lengths.

Stunning examples. Had no idea that you could do this with the Curio. Thanks for sharing.

I finally finished the video I've been working on. It is not really a tutorial but I do provide some helpful hints & tips which should help others avoid some of the problems I ran in to.

Just a quick heads up to the Curio owners here, Silhouette have released an updated firmware for the Curio, this takes the firmware from v1.08 to v1.20, so it should contain a few fixes & optimisations. You can find the firmware at the link below, the firmware upgrader provides clear & simple instructions but let me know if you have any questions, I've just done the update here and it all went smooth & only took a couple of minutes. Just make sure you close Studio before running the firmware installer.
