    Live Q&A #303 – Special Guest – Nick French

    August 17, 2025 /

    In this live stream I’ll be talking with Nick French from Big Nick’s Designs. Nick has spent the last several years developing his technique for creating Photo V-Carve portraits, as well as Negative Space V-Carvings. Often working with Reclaimed, Repurposed, or Recycled materials, Nick has put in the leg work needed to figure out the best methods, materials, and supplies, along with the techniques needed to make drool-worthy portraits. We’ll also talk about his background, his CNC journey, his design ideas, and how he plans to move forward in his journey with CNC and content creation.
