I was looking at a thread on making wooden spoons earlier, and noticed they were using just some ball end bits for shaping the spoon. I then caught on that they were using the new moulding feature of vcarve 9, which I hadn't seen.

Just playing around with it, it's a bit like the follow me tool in sketchup. You draw a profile, then a path for it to follow (drive rail). I ended up using a 1/8" ball mill on this preview.
I've got some oval picture frames in my future.
I also didn't realize they've added 2 sided preview now, so will be playing around with that more too.
