Want to try CNC inlays without the big commitment? The CNC Inlay Starter Kit is your perfect starter project — a handcrafted inlay cutting board kit designed to help you learn (or sharpen) the art of inlays.
Inside, you’ll get an Inlay base, Inlay plug, cutting board oil, rubber feet with screws, and a stainless steel brush — plus three digital designs (3D pattern, USA theme, and deer profile). Ryan will guide you step-by-step in the included build video, and the commercial license lets you legally sell what you make.
Simple, affordable, and fun — this kit is the perfect first step into inlays, or a great way to refine your skills before moving on to larger projects.
Kit Includes:
(1) - 9" x 12" 1.25" Inlay Base
(1) - 9" x 12" 0.5625"" Inlay Plug
(1) - 3oz Bottle of Cutting Board Oil
(4) - Rubber Cutting Board Feet with Screws
(1) - Stainless Steel Brush
(3) - Digital Files (3D Pattern, USA, & Deer Profile) - You'll get an email after purchase with your file downloads.
You’ll receive a VCarve Pro.CRV file, Carbide Create File, SVG, PNG, DXF, PDF, and AI for versatile use across different software and machines. The V-Carve Pro file can also be used on Aspire.
The Version of VCarve Pro I saved with is Version 11

I'm building a couple of cedar chests for Eagle Scouts. Your Flag & Eagle inlay will be used on one of the side panels. The box style uses 5-panel construction. The front and sides have carvings and/or inlays. I've done 6 of these to date. Your graphic will be new to the design. The previous boxes also had an Eagle on on side. Your design will change it up to use the Flag and Eagle.
I used the Golden boy for ruffing and an 1/8” ball nose for details. First time using my CIC bits and ER collets. Supreme quality bits produce a spectacular cut!
The inlay worked perfectly. (Guess the theme I was going for.) I was a bit surprised that you offered the eagle inlay for free, but I did purchase a few other things because I thought that was fair. I have grown very fond watching you and your family as I make my own CNC journey. Thanks for all your help. I look forward to many years of CNC knowing I can rely on you and a few others for support.

This was the second time using the file for a cutting board. Both were given away as are all things I make on my CNC. Thanks CIC for great wood products and wonderful customer service.
Wow! This is the best surfacing bit I have ever used. Got a super smooth finish on a mixed hardwood cutting board that required just a quick once over to finish-sand prior to oiling.
I ordered three and received them in great condition. They were packed well and fast shipping. They look amazing and are more than what I expected. Great job guys
Directions and files worked well. My setup requires slightly slower feed rates and two passes to do the male, but when it was finally done, the two pieces mated perfectly.
I highly recommend this file.
Some people have similar inspirations. Literally days before I saw your video I was designing my own Gameday board as a Christmas gift. But I liked your measurements better than mine so I bought your kit and used your design to tweek mine. So far it's coming out great. I am sure a happy customer.
I used CIC project pack, lumber pack and rocking chair design to make the rocking chairs for the grandkids. The quality of these materials is so consistently good that you don't worry about problems in the wood distracting from the end result you are seeking.
Love CIC… watching the videos they produce provided valuable insight into the CNC world. Ryan’s descriptions and step by step process made it look easy, and is the reason I bought a CNC.
The rocking chair is awesome! Made for my friends first grandson… thanks Ryan and team!
What a great project. I went in person and picked this up along with some other wood from DW Hardwoods. The file is well laid out with good instructions. It is easy to edit for your favorite team. It takes about 3 days total because of the epoxy cure time but only about a hour of cutting. Finished with Osmo. I give away all my projects so my friends are thrilled. ShopSabre 23 and Vectric VCarve pro were used to cut it out.
First time working with BamX. Absolutely loved it. Already have a couple more ideas to utilize this material. Highly recommend BamX and CIC for all your CNC needs.
I’ve been using your bits and various materials to craft CNC projects for the past several months. I also pick up great tips each week on your channel. First class operation. Keep up the good work!
I love the product, this is my third inlay board I have created for friends and each one the quality improves with CIC cutters and inlay boards. The orders keep coming in and they’re fun to make.
