HI ,

I have this valence kitchen project for the wife going on an I could use a lil help.
I have tried to no avail to create a raised panel border on the mpc attached.

It should be 1" wide all the way around the board.

Any help would be appreciated.

I would use Wolfie's Gradient Designer program for this: http://www.wolfiesden.com/downloads/utilities.asp The program is a very useful tool for use with the CraveWright and well worth the time it takes to learn how to use it. I have used it many times. Draw the profile that you want with the program and generate a black-and-white image depth map. Import the image to a drawing program such as paint.net and edit the image to trapezoidal shape. Import as a pattern, then rotate and stretch as needed around the edge of your board. I think that you will need to use a sled to carve this, or Designer will complain when you go to upload it.

This was done in designer. You can change the way it looks with depth and height settings.

Tom,

Here is the mpc that I used to create panel doors.
I removed the patterns that I had in the middle.
You will need to play around with dimensions.
