Pattern sharing depot

[Jeff_Birt]

With the number of registerd users nearing 700 and posts nearing 5,000 it can be really difficult to search through everything to find a post where someone shared a pattern file (.ptn), doubly so if you are a new member. I thought it might be nice to have a single thread to act as a depot for the pattern files folks would like to share. If you are sharing a pattern here please make sure it is NOT a commercial pattern.

READ THIS VERY CAREFULLY:
Pattern files have to be 'zipped' before being uploaded to the forum; which means you need to 'un-zip' the file after you download it. I borrowed the excellent picture that Jon Jantz (look just below here) posted the other day that shows how to add pattern files to your 'Favorites' folder in Designer. In words: Open Designer, click on the 'Shell' icon to open up the patterns, right click on "Favorites", click on "Import", navigate to where you saved you pattern.

I have a request, would someone mind writing up a short and simple, how to zip and unzip a file (PC and MAC) for those folks who may not know yet. I will write up a short how to on organizing the 'Favorites' folder and we can add them here as instructions for everyone.

It would be nice to have a picture to be displayed in the post for any patterns you are sharing. This makes it easier for all to see if it is something that they are interested in downloading.

PLEASE NOTE: Let's try to keep this thread only for pattern files. I will reguraly delete or move any other content.

[Jeff_Birt]

I thought I would start things off with a pattern file of a bark texture. Enjoy...

[Ted Grinnell]

Here is a copy of the Last Supper PTN file that I showed a copy of under "How good is that probe? That good!!"

Enjoy and I hope that others will make this thread a popular and productive one for everyone.

Thanks Jeff_Birt for starting it.

[HandTurnedMaple]

Here is a few of mine.

[menewfy]

I would like to thank all of you, yes even you!!

I have found every one here to be selfless and very helpful I can only hope as time goes on that I can contribute to what I am sure will be a growing number of newbies as you have helped me.

in that spirit I have received help from Jon in designing this plaque that you all should feel free to use if you like it. I belong to a 8 ball pool league and I am going to present this to the comittee to see if they would consider buying some from me as awards for the tops in the league.

when looking at it imagine it hanging on the wall with the rack of balls on top and just below that a name plate of some sort.

I am sure you will get the idea.

Thanks again
Tim

[pkunk]

I'll offer an MPC file like this which can be modified to your hearts content. Enjoy! :D

[pkunk]

This is almost 1" deep so you'll need a thick piece of wood. New...A pic of it painted and sealed with 2 coats of Sherwin Williams exterior waterbased poly

[pkunk]

This was my first scan. I did a cutout on the back for the glass etc, but won't include it w/ this. I think it's easier (for me) to rout the back with a Bosch Colt.

[autobody]

I got my machine the other day. The scanning probe came in today so I built a scanning sled. This is quite cool, the only thing missing was Majel Barrett saying "Initializing scan" :lol:
http://www.PhotoShare.co.nz/PhotoShareGallery1/100503/108025/PICT00664840.jpg
I built the sides 2¼" above the top of the sled. I discovered though if you want to scan within 1½" of either side of the sled the sides can't be more than about 1-5/8" tall or the wire on the probe hits. I am making another ½" board to screw on top of mine so I can scan closer to the edges.

Here's a molding I had laying around that I scanned. Took over 5 hours to scan.
http://www.PhotoShare.co.nz/PhotoShareGallery1/100503/108025/scan64.jpg
The original size was 17.99" on the long side (don't know if that matters) and needs to be rotated 90° (not sure how to do that with the imported scan yet , all new to me.)

I have a few carvings that I have made (manually with a dremil type tool) that I plan to attempt to scan. The ones that will fit in the machine anyway.

Thanks ~Mike

[pkunk]

I've used this several times on signs. Rotate to the direction you want.

[Bill]

Hello rgant05,
I attached a .jpg along for you to see just in case it is not the correct file.
Bill.

[autobody]

Here is a ptn file of a door emblishment I scanned in (took over 8 hours ). The size is 12.24" x 7.68"

Please let me know if you carve any of these if they are coming out okay. So far I've just been scanning stuff.

Thanks ~Mike

[pterris]

This may be handy for some applications

[shaddy]

Here's a Harley logo

Got it from www.brandsoftheworld.com
in EPS format, brought it in to CorelDRAW made it larger by stretching, copied, then imported in to CW. Took all of a couple minutes.

PS, BOTW is in a different country (Russia, I believe) that doesn't follow the US's copywrite laws. So just because you get a logo, doesn't mean you have the right to use it. I personally don't worry about making gifts, but if you make a bunch and sell, you may eventually get in a little trouble.

[shaddy]

Here's a John Deere logo, might be of interest to some

[Malfunction]

here's my final product of a chaos symbol i made with the programs DrawPlus8 and the trial version of photoshop.

[autobody]

This is a scan of a goofy carpenter guy I made a few years ago.

I had a bit of trouble while scanning this the hot glue let go at the top. In the pattern editor I tried to clean it up a little, that would be something I'd like to add to the wish list, a clone tool. If anyone can clean this up better please repost it.

Took 16 hours to scan and 20minutes to download from the card.

Thanks ~Mike

[Old Salt]

May have some interest scaned old light house carving

[autobody]

This is a scan of a picture frame. I didn't scan the back so it would need to be done either with the carvewright or by hand to fit the glass into a rabbit. The original scan size was 1.05" deep 6.94" x 8.41"

How would a person cut this out of say a 1" thick board, would I need a backer to keep the machine from cutting into itself?

Please let me know if these are working out, I thought I'd get all my scanning out of the way before I started using the machine to carve.



Thanks ~Mike

[autobody]

This is a scan of a mermaid I carved ( with dremil tools) into a cabinet drawer front. The scan came out a bit odd, has some lines in the face area that aren't in the carving. I'm attaching a picture of the original carving as well, it's on red oak. Scan size is 4.73" x 15.29" x .588"

If anyone carves this with the machine, would you mind posting a picture of the carving in the gallery and let me know if the lines cause any problems?

Thanks ~Mike

[autobody]

This is a scan of a butterfly I cutout and carved for the back of a mirror, years ago. The scan size is 3.81" x2.38"

~Mike

[Ted Grinnell]

This is a scan of grapes on a vine. I had to make it durring the day when my wife was not here, as it is a screwed on piece of her fine silver.

[autobody]

This is a scan of a door panel section I carved by hand a few years ago. The achor and chain were cut from a seperate piece glued to the door and then carved along with the background. The size of the scan area was 4.55" x 7.97" x .42"

~Mike

[autobody]

I have an old program Xara 3D 4.0 I've been messing with it a little to see if it would render anything useable for the CarveWright. I think it works pretty well for flat black & white solids. Here's one I made with it. Text and simple objects seem to work to round the edges or bevel the edges. I don't think it would work for anything very complex.

~Mike

[autobody]

Just a name but once I save the settings in Xara I can use any font or name that looks good. Then I just import it, save it to the favorites, right click it and export as a ptn file.

~Mike

[autobody]

I'm waiting for the CarveWright to finish a scan so I decided to try something. I had a carved square applique, I scanned it in greyscale on my flatbed scanner, did a smooth and soften in my photoediting software and imported it into CarveWright. Here is what I came up with, at some point I will have to scan this with the CarveWright and see if it does better.

~Mike

[autobody]

This is a scan of a hand mirror I made a while back. The band around the back was actually walnut, the mirror body was oak, and the rose was bloodwood. I'm not sure how to carve the other side with the machine, but I guess it could be done pretty easily with a dremil tool.

Thanks ~Mike

[SpiffyDog]

Here's a signboard I created but have not done cut out as of yet.

[Bill]

Just for kicks :D .

Just waiting for some clear coate to set and tried these wingdings they seem to carve ok check them out.

Mods you can delete this post if you like.

[HandTurnedMaple]

The eagle's head I've been working on is ready (as far as I'm concerned).

[HerbO]

I was playing around with Photo Impact and here is a Lighthouse I drew.
Might need a little more detailing.

[autobody]

This is a scan of a box lid the original dimensions were 5.76" x 8.51" x .507"

So was I the only one to buy a scanning probe, or are others just not posting their scans?

Thanks ~Mike

[Ted Grinnell]

I live on Mobile Bay and we have a lot of things nautical around, as well as Mardi Gras.
I did buy the probe and here is one of the rather large Boatwheels with a lighthouse and boats in the middle.
I agree that more people should contribute, at least 1 in 10 that download.

[alexa]

the sample is carved on pine

[dpowli]

I am posting this per a couple of requests. Carve time was 4 hrs 10 mins. at "best" setting. Wood was 9/16 cherry.

[fozziebo]

here is a largemouth bass by request.....AND ANOTHER VERSION with a little more texture....i find experimenting with the depth and height settings make a HUGE difference!!!!!!

[Old Salt]

Give this one a try 8)

[Bill]

This is the second design for a hanging or table lamp this will also be a hanging lamp with the customers initial in the center.

[HandTurnedMaple]

Here is my first successful 3D pattern after Jon's tutorial. Its for real football fans. 8)

[forqnc]

Just wanted to add a picture of Ted Grinnell's Lighthouse and wheel, carved out. This is straight from the machine.
Thank you Ted for posting, my wife loves it. Excuse the defects in the board, this is popular which has been biscuit jointed together, and was a test piece. I hope to get round to staining later on.
The picture looks darker than it should be, but we had to turn off the flash, the flash just brightened it to much to see the detail.

[pkunk]

This is one I scanned from the doors I spoke about. I may not scan any more of them as the scanner does a number on the paint and I would hate to destroy my clients artwork with out their permission. A major part of the beauty of the carvings is the way in which they were painted/finished. That is at 5.3 x 1 3/4"

[pkunk]

On this one, the scanning probe really took away some of the color. I think I'll have to stop. :?

[cajunpen]

I think that this is a "good" copy of the Angel PTN file. It was from the original beta software - I can't find any defect anyway. Hopefully this will be what everyone is looking for.

[pkunk]

That's the best version. Here's the PTN.

I hope that you like this one.

[tbroeski]

Here's a link to ptn and mpw files of an old antique carving I had hanging on my wall. It was a 4 hour high res scan.

http://www.adesigner.com/carvewright/

[DWD]

This emblem was created using the probe. The original was 1 1/2 inches high.
I carve this at least .740 depth to get the best detail. A carve region is also recommended.

Dan

[bamaman315]

hope you like them

[bamaman315]

Here are the rest of the patterns

[mtylerfl]

Here is a pattern for an Indian Head Penny if anyone wants to use it.

(Unzip the ptn file before importing into your Favorites)

[mtylerfl]

Hello,

I created a pattern for both sides of the Indian Head penny. Also, I used the "smoothing" function on both patterns to give what I think would be a better carve.

These coin patterns are intended to be carved large so that the 1/16" bit can capture most of the detail. Carve too small and the details will probably not do well. I envisioned carving each side of the coin on a board 11.25 x 11.25, but you could experiment with smaller sizes if you wish.

If anyone wants to try to carve 'em, please let me know how they work out! For the old penny, I also thought a copper metaillic paint, antiqued over with a dark wood stain might be nice.

I'll make a couple more patterns of other old coins if the interest is there.

[mtylerfl]

Hello,

Here are the patterns for an 1877 5-cent piece - front and back. Enjoy!

[mtylerfl]

Here are more coin patterns...

a 20 Dollar Goldpiece and a Standing Liberty Quarter
(four patterns...front and obverse of each coin)

Have fun!

[mtylerfl]

I'm posting two new coin patterns...

- Walking Liberty 20 dollar Gold Piece (front and back)

- Flying Eagle Penny (front and back)

This makes a total of six coins I've posted - 12 patterns in all - counting front and back of each coin.

[thaley]

someone try this an let me i watten for a powerbord

[rgant05]

Here is one for any of you who have friends who are Red Hatters. A unique group of ladies that are a joy to be around. I am hoping that this will catch on and provide some "payments" on my CarveWright

The sign is one that, those of you follow the Corel Tutorials by Jon will recognize...... OK so I am not original LOL. With a few adaptations I have made it into a project that you can swap names out easily for different signs. Those of you who use Corel will be able to do just the name portion and add the transition gradient for the curved or beveled effects on the letters. Otherwise you can use the CarveWright text feature for letters as shown on pattern.

Included below are:
Picture from Designer of the MPC file.
The MPC file with generic name
The pattern file of just the Red Had digitized in Corel for any other project.

If anyone wants any other form of this project or parts of it, email me and I will try to help. Photos will be posted in the gallery as soon as I get the finish applied.

[HandTurnedMaple]

Here's something that's been missing for far too long.

[BoardSilly]

Here's a little something.

[HandTurnedMaple]

2004 Mustang

[SpiffyDog]

I liked the waving flag idea but couldn't wait so I created one myself. I thought I would share. Each star, stripe, and star field is it's own element so that you can be quite creative in adding depth and textures.

[rjp736]

Here is a ptn of a mans head (smoking a pipe)

[SpiffyDog]

After a little tweaking, I had to remove some measurement constraints in order to adjust the board size. Here's is an updated version. I created this using the latest version of Designer. Not sure if that would cause others to have problems modifying using an earlier version.

The second file contains added depth to the elements as an example.

[rjp736]

Here is a good Dinosaur head

I did a twist on a hand gun I saw on the postings a while back. Did this just before my card went dead. Going to do another in a harder wood. (pine was my practice) .

This is the pattern I made for shelf brackets and as it turned out it is also a trellace in Mikes Gallery Thread. I do not have copy offset in my software so it is not exact. But it works.

[Gman_Ind]

This is in metric but fits old standard wall switch.
blank, fancy and scary

[Rampie]

Here is a 67 firebird i was going to carve. Going to have to wait till I get my carver up and running again. so if someone uses this carving please let me know how it turns out. looks good in designer.

Thanks,

Here's a pattern I created as a backgroujd for some shop signs I'm making. It's that metal step plate that you see frequently. Enjoy.

Wall Sconce 2, the second scan...

[Jeff_Birt]

I was inspired by the small heart shaped box the Lig posted a few weeks ago and made a small apple box and wrote up little tutorial to show how it was done. Jon Jantz was nice enough to host it over at his site http://www.allcw.com/Projects.html (lots of of other cool stuff there too). I'm working on finishing one right now and will add a pic of the finished product when done.

[gtj44]

Nice Hot Rod Woody I think all the car nuts will like.

I was playing with a graphic program and this is just for a test if someone would like to try it and see how it will carve.

Nothing spectacular, did it with the designer and carved in poplar

A celtic cross.

[pastime106]

Thought that some folks might like this one. Least I could do after all the help and information the site provded me. I ran a test cut on some scrap and the pattern came out looking decent. I used shallow depts on this as it will all be painted. (And it just cut quicker that way in the test)
On our farm we have several trails that my girls ride and I am guessing that in a few years they will all have signs. :rolleyes:

Here are two projects I've been working on.

The US quarter map is from the map previously posted here. I added a couple of patterns (you can delete the heart and name ;) ), fixed the size of the coin holes and added the 50th state hole. The previous one has only 49 holes...
It doesn't look too bad. The quarter holes are just slightly large. They may fill in with paint or clear when finished? I sized them in Designer and they came out large... The map itself is a bit rough and I can't modify it. It would be nice to have a better map... Maybe I should also mention that this takes 6 1/2 hours to carve! But I and my daughter greatly appreciate the nice person who uploaded the original. Thank you thaley!

The second project is a box to hold the Carvewright PC card. May not really be useful, but the mahcine is new to me and I needed an idea to carve... This box has a carved lip on the inside that holds the two pieces together. The dimensioning in Designer worked great for this. It's a work in-progress, not finished but may be fun to see or use...

Just thought I'd give back a little after living here for a few weeks and carving for 20+ hours :p

[Hexe SA]

This one I used the rose of the rose mirror posted here. It came out nice and on best quality setting I had surprisingly very little breakout in the lettering. Took about 45 min to carve and yes it was poplar.

__________________________________________________ _________

Ask and ye shall receive. (did somebody say 6 1/2 hours?)

The attached file will carve in 1:35:35. Please do not use the signet without my name attached.
The map of course is easy to come by, but I spent several hours re-doing it as splines. The quarter holes are (within the limits of the machine's accuracy) the exact size of the quarter per US specifications.
You may use the map without my signet if you prefer, but please respect that the signet and name should remain together..

And Thanks also to the original poster, who gave me the idea to create this (probably without realizing it). This is not a modification to his (or her?) original, just my attempt to have something that carves faster.

Hopefully it will save some carving time for other projects, and prove useful to
some of you.

Cheers,

Bladesmith

[Dan-Woodman]

Here is a little step stool I worked up in designer if anyone wants to try it.
The holes are drilled thru 1/8" dia. and countersunk 3/8" dia. x 0.300 deep for screwing the seat and a runner on each side. The countersunk holes can be plugged with 3/8" plugs.
I plan on cutting the childs name out in the seat.

I have not tried this design yet so let me know if it's not right.

Here is a waving American Flag. Inspired by the request of a fellow carver, and my wife, who is a Commander and a Ready Responder in the USPHS (they use Navy ranks) for over 28 years now.

[Dirtydan]

Thanks Michael for the Flag.

Here's a .mpc with some new patterns I came up with today...from some .jpg's I have...

[kyeakel]

Here's a nice wall plaque that I scanned. I haven't had time to carve it yet, but it looks pretty nice in .ptn form.

Can't get a ptn to post, it's not in the upload extension list?

[beachman]

this is my first scan i hope i do this correctly and some of you ot there can use it

[beachman]

here is another shell i scanned,hope it's of some use

[beachman]

this one will require painting,it is a scan of a wall plack of my wife's,and i think it will make a good outside sign carved in poplar and all painted up

[beachman]

This is a good scan of a ceramic clock face center i got at a flea mall,makes a nice carving

[beachman]

sorry not awake yet i guess

[Dirtydan]

Well, I just finished scanning the out side of nice sized sea shell. ( 4.875" x 4.102" x 1.372")

[beachman]

trying again,thanks Jeff Birt

[beachman]

this is another scan,hope its useful

[beachman]

here is a new scan,a welcome sign

[Dirtydan]

Well, Ken I just got to doing the inside scan. Fathers day gifts set me back a little. Did them in Purpleheart.... Great Wood for Carving... Hard like my head... Anyway, here's the Inside scan of the Sea Shell I posted last week.

[want2b]

Have had my machine a while, like most here I just never seem to have enough time. Got my scanner a couple of weeks ago, finally made a sled and tried a couple of items. Found the stag original at an auction, is metal and apparently was fastened to something. Nice flat back, couldn't get any lower on the neck, exceeded thickness limits. Crab is pewter, something my wife had. Possibly a paperweight?
Hope the quality is OK, my first attempts to edit out the background. Really enjoy this forum and it is a pleasure to see the open sharing along with the willingness of all to help each other. THX

[Jeff_Birt]

Somebody asked my about a chopper pattern a week or so ago, I tried to whip something up that would work. It turned out OK, just a little too flat...and I can't seem to atttach a picture here so follow the second link for one...

Nice realistic details the wheat looks great. to bad a little more was not there, enough for a repeatable pattern.
here is a picture to share.

Here is a Ford clock I designed. I carved one out of oak as a gift for my Dad. It turned out very nice.

[blakeyoung59]

I am a professional graphic designer by day... and this is my collection of typographic ornaments and dingbats that I have been compiling for the last few months... it has everything from word logos to swashes...in the neighborhood 200-300 elements... it is in an eps format so you'll need vector editing software to open it... this would take forever for me to get into designer... and all would be 2-d... .but they will really make text look good when used with it.

but what you should do is pick and choose which image you want.... then scale it up and export as a png ... and do your thing... with the designer thing

but unfortunatly you'll have to right click the following link to download the file(or save file as).. cause it is about 5mb and is too big to upload to this forum

I made this butterfly pattern and I think it will carve well. I won't have time myself till next week-end to try it out. If someone does carve it before I do please post. This will be my first pattern that I have made.

Playing with the scanner, needed a hammer for a sign, why buy when I can try? I know there is a hammer ptn for sale on the other forum, figured I'd post this anyway.

Added a picture of the finished carve, left to right 1st one is with the dish , middle is the original, right is carved in walnut.

[Andy C]

I changed the stool pattern posted previously to add a carving. If you use this I would go a little shallower on the carving.

Also the second file is brackets I laid out for the stool. There are four 'cause I am making two stools. The spiral carves on both sides and uses the 90 degree bit.

Home Depot sells a knotty pine glue up in 24" x 48" size for 16 bucks.
Got two stools and change out of the one piece. Seat was made to 7" x 12" with my grandsons names Centerline carved in it (love that CL).

Here is one that was posted a long time back by someone, I can't remember by who. Sorry, I would give proper credit if I could remember??? Getting old.

[Jimmygee]

Andy C,
thanks for posting the pattern for the stool. What I don't understand is how it is totally put together with the brackets and the stool. My granddaughter is having an event coming up and would like to make one for her. Any way you could post a picture of the finished product? not sure what the cut out is for except for maybe a handle? and the brackets the legs? And where would they go? Stupid me. I am new to this. Many thanks in advance.

Made this sign for a neighbor.

First design gave me a ignore-autojig-manual error when I went to upload.

Wanted to use 1x8 and not have to go to next size.

When you use designer the top of the project comes out on the key board side of the machine. The arched cut out is what caused the error.

Laid out the sign in designer upside down, which put the cut on the other side of the machine.

Now carves fine.

Andy

[Dirtydan]

Well, I always waste wood, so I would have gone to a 1x10 board, but you can also let the machine size to fit the board your using. In your case, even using a 1 x 10 might give you the same error... For some reason the machine wants a lot of extra space on the sides... In this case I understand because of the cut-through.

It sounds like flipping the board tricks the machine... Good to know...

Here are some patterns I made. Enjoy.

[Bones1963]

Here is a rocking horse that my father built for my oldest sister some 50 plus years ago. When I came along I broke it, so my sister requested that when she had grandchildren I build them each one. This will make it a lot less difficult as her kids just keep having children. Some times restitution takes a while.

[Bones1963]

If you having any question on how it goes together. E-mail me at UpEngr@readytek.net or CDJones@Ble55.org I also have a pattern for a rocking locomotive and motorcycle and am working on a pig different style motorcycle and Elephant. If you are interested in any of these I will send them. Remember it is not sharing if you are selling it.

[Andy C]

Haven't carved this yet. Looks like it should turn out well.

[Lin]

I scanned a brass plated frame. The entire frame is too large to post here but today I edited the frame itself out so just the unicorn is left. Here it is.
Lin

[autobody]

I built and carved this drawer front (see picture) I can't seem to add it to my library, I get an SQL error. So I am just uploading a crop of the scan because the system won't let me upload a PTN file that large.

Any idea on how I can get the full drawer front in the library?
Thanks ~Mike

[mtylerfl]

Hello,

I was experimenting a bit this morning and came up with a nice dome Rosette pattern that some folks may find useful.

[Lin]

This scan didn't come out as well as the unicorn did...Thinking its because the item itself was smaller. But in any case here it is.
Lin

[911guy]

Here is a sign I've made for a friend. I got the horse pattern from someone on the forum here. Pattern and .jpeg attached for any of you horseracing fans.

[dustyshp]

I have not carved it yet but here is a scan I fininshed today.
I am also looking for a Beagle to carve if anyone has one.
Thanks
Dusty

[Lin]

I'm on vacation this week and after a bit of yard saling this past week-end I've been putting my scanner to some use. Two in this post and two in the next post.
Lin

[Lin]

Don't know how well this cross will carve. The fretwork areas are very small but it sure is pretty. You will need to adjust your depth on the Cherubs PTN. The scan depth was over 1" and I didn't know at the time that I should've change the depth when saving. You can adjust it easily with in designer itself.
Lin

[Lin]

I'm glad I can fianlly give back a bit for all the wonderful patterns that I have downloaded here.
Did a few more scans yesterday...Surprised at what you find for 25 cents at the yard sales...lol The leaf is the backside of a small glass ash try. Two in this post and one in the next.
Lin

[Lin]

Heres the last scan for awhile...I do have other items I picked up to scan but have a carving to do and have orders for the scrollsaw I have to get to work on. Will keep scanning as I have time. This was a small plastic hear frame with a bit of relief detail on it. You will have to do cut path in the center of it to make it into a frame.
Lin

[Keenosan]

Here is another picture that, I think, Lin has correctly identified as a chip carving. All I know is that they carve very quickly and they carve well in soft (i.e. cheap) wood using only one bit. This would probably go well on a plate, a box lid or even a clock if you drill a hole in the middle.

[Keenosan]

Lin,
Here is another one that is significantly more simple than the other one and should carve in ten minutes or less, judging by what the others have been taking me. You could easily carve two in your 30 minute time constraint with your scrolling group.

Thank all of you for your kind words. I hope these will be of use to someone. I have a 3D Router Carver that I didn't use much because it was such a pain in the behind to set up (and the pattern templates were so darned expensive) but the CW is so much easier and looks just as good if not better. Also, I can do all of the designs with the CW that I could do with the 3D Router Creator with any embellishment that I want to add!

[Keenosan]

[QUOTE
Is there any way to reduce them or enlarge them? I tried selecting all the components and grouping them, but that did not seem to work. I've been making some small boxes, for Christmas gifts, and I'd like to use the Hummingbird an the "Chip Carving" patterns - but I would like to reduce the size to fit - say a 5"x7" top. Just wondering :p[/QUOTE]

Cajunpen,

The best way that I've found to resize the whole thing is to click: Edit, then: Select all, then, when the yellow box comes up on the picture, drag one of the corners with your mouse to make it larger or smaller. With some of the elaborate pictures, this is too much info for the software and it crashes. If you have trouble, just tell me what size you need of which picture and I'll post a smaller version. Just a word to the wise, on some of them, if you decrease the size a lot, you'll have to lessen the depth values on some of the lines. I hope this helps; it's kind of a two-dollar answer to a 75-cent question, but I have a problem with verbosity.

Edit: Here are both files on 5" wide boards.

[Lin]

Heres a couple more. You will have to make a cut path on the inside of the Train frame in Designer. Posting a screen shot from designer of the dish pattern and a possible use for it. Placing another pattern in side it would look very nice I think.
Lin

[Keenosan]

How about something Victorian? I haven't carved this one yet, but I would imagine that it would be "The Shallower, The Better."

[Lin]

Cute but being so small..not sure how well thye will carve.
Lin

[Keenosan]

Lin, you were right! These two and the two in the next post were based on free stained glass patterns I found on the web. I carved the Doves in pine and it turned out fine. The actual carving is a little deeper into the wood than the software indicates, but I think that it looks better in the actual wood. It wouldn't fit into my scanner and I still don't have a digital camera.

[Keenosan]

Here are a couple for the kiddies.

[gtj44]

A couple of great things from the past. They can be easily separated and used as you wish.

[Jeff_Birt]

Here is a wood grain texture I came up with a while ago. I have posted it before but can't find it so I'm placing it here.

[Keenosan]

Flyin' Dutchman,

Here are some quick and easy vector carvings. Just use your 90 V'Groove bit.

[Keenosan]

Here's another one and an example of what you can do with an Anglican Text font and cutting and pasting the vector drawings.

[gtj44]

Three different cameos, young girl cameo, Jesus cameo and Neptune. I haven't carved them yet, but they look like thsy will do nicely. They would probably look great on a keepsake or jewelry box. Hope someone can use them.

[Keenosan]

Yes, to carve it the way I did you need centerline. To me it was money well spent because I use it for carving this Celtic Knot font that I got for $20 at:
http://www.clanbadge.com/knots.htm

[Old Salt]

Tree of Life pattern cuts very well. give it a try.

[gtj44]

President Bush in front of Old Glory. No political statement being made, just thinks its a good looking pattern.

[Ropdoc]

This is something I was playin with for Holloween. If anyone would like to use it.

[Ropdoc]

And this is one from my shelf. I have not carved it yet. Hopefully I don't need to rework it.

Dave

[woodknack]

I just got my new scanning probe. I scanned this sea shell. Let me know what you guys think. Is there any room for improvement etc..??

[Keenosan]

For those of you who are busy making Christmas toys, here is an essential item for anything that rolls on the floor.

[Keenosan]

Here's a couple of frames that I made. You wanted 3D, well here they are.

[Keenosan]

Here's a Celtic Knot that would make a nice decoration for a box lid or something like that.

[Keenosan]

Here's a mantel clock front that I made along with some examples of what you can do with it using the built-in Designer patterns.

[Keenosan]

Here's a round one to go with the others.

[STEAM]

Here's a pattern. I haven't tried carving it yet.

[Keenosan]

Yes, I know it isn't Valentine's day, but now is a good time to be thinking about how to decorate that certain someone's Christmas present. If you're getting tired of these, let me know and I'll stop.

[Keenosan]

Here's some more.

[Keenosan]

One more for good measure.

[JOHNB]

Here Are Some Pine Trees I Re-did..you May Have Some Use For Them.. Put A Few Together With Different Depths And Heights..

[Keenosan]

I got this pattern from the Artcam forum from a guy in Serbia named Zarijie. He said that he considers his uploads as freeware, so I converted it and here it is. I think it would make a great pattern for a coffee table top under glass and that is what I intend to use it for. I'll post pictures if I ever get a digital camera.

[Keenosan]

Here's another woven frame and a couple of really clean stars.

[STEAM]

I hope you enjoy it.

[Keenosan]

This is something a little bit different.

[Keenosan]

As you can see from the slightly tilted picture, these are not flat but crowned at the center. If anyone has a particular shape shield that they'd like to see, send me a picture and I'll see if I can make it.

[Keenosan]

Okay, I've been posting this stuff now for a couple of months. Is anyone out there besides me and Cajunpen using them to carve things? It takes quite a bit of time to make them and I think that some of them are as good as some of the patterns that I've seen for sale, but if no one is using them, it would be a lot simpler to email them to the one or two people who are using them and use my time to carve more things with my CW. The reason that I've been doing it is because there is simply not much out there on the net that can be used by the CW, and most of what is out there is beyond my limited price range. I'm not in it for the money, so I have no other way to recoup the money that I would have to pay for patterns and I thought that there might be others in my position. Maybe I was wrong.

[Keenosan]

Thank you all for your response. It makes me feel like I'm not wasting my time. Anyway, I have a lot of different moldings. If you like these, I'll post some different ones. I can think of a lot of uses for them in carving besides picture frames, like framing other carvings and laying out panels.

[Keenosan]

Here are the other two. Let me know if you need different shapes.

[Dirtydan]

Well, here are a few patterns I've managed to put together... A couple may still need a little loving care, but this is my first shot, so be gentle...

[Dirtydan]

Ok, this is it for now...

[Keenosan]

By special email request, heart and diamond molded frames.

[Keenosan]

Lesbaker,

Here are three different ones, hopefully like what you need. I probably wouldn't use my CW for this because it's going to take an awfully long time to carve 6 feet of it, but to each (thank goodness) his own.
By the way, you can play with the depth and height to make slightly different profiles.

[Keenosan]

Yes, you've seen this one before. I used the same pattern before for a vector carving. It is a free stained glass pattern that I got off of the net (thanks again to Lin.) It's hard to see in the jpg, but the whole thing sits in a concave dish.

[Keenosan]

This is one that some people will be able to use. When you paste the pattern onto your project, you can stretch and compress it to fit whatever size board you need without distorting the basketweave.

[Keenosan]

This is a 3d graphic doodle that got way out of hand and turned into something that I liked. I wish that would happen more often.

Kelly

[Dirtydan]

Here's a few Patterns I just finished... Enjoy...

[Dirtydan]

Here's the patterns for the two .png's I posted before...

[STEAM]

Anyone doing Fire Department related carvings might like this. The chain carves pretty rough but it still gives the effect. Of course you can always edit it out.

[Kenm810]

Here's one for you guys that find yourself in the dog house on occasion. http://www.carvewright.com/forum/images/icons/icon11.gif

[Keenosan]

I don't have a clue about what a real porthole would look like. This one was taken from a photograph.

[STEAM]

This is from an old clip art set I have had for over ten years. I never thought it was good for anything and almost threw it out a few times. Now I am glad I didn't. There are a lot of designs in it similar to this. As I convert them I will post more. Enjoy :D

[Keenosan]

Here's another one for kenm810's grandson.

[Keenosan]

Okay, now you have one for the Barometer, one for the Thermometer and one for the Chronometer.

[Dirtydan]

Patterns now available on my site.

Enjoy...:p

Anybody looking for something in paticular? Id be happy to try and see if I can do it. This is a learning curve for me so the more I do the better I'll get im sure..

[Kenm810]

Keenosan,

My Grandson is going to love them, plus I know where to get the matching Instruments for them.
I even started playing with the rope patterns, while my machines is down.

Thanks so much

Here’s a couple I’ve had knocking around in my project files

[Keenosan]

It's never too early to start making things for Christmas.

[woodknack]

How about a nice Craftsman logo? Local Sears tool manager was wondering if I could carve one and I haven't had time to clean up a jpeg image.

Thanks,

Here's Another Pine Tree, I Think A Little Better Than The Last. I Did Something To The Contrast(now If I Can Only Remember What It Was, And Before Blur Or After) Set Height About 40?

[Kenm810]

Just a couple of thoughts, --- Something to think about.

[Keenosan]

I promised more Irish stuff. The Claddagh is an ancient Irish symbol; the crown signifies loyalty, the hands friendship, and the heart love.

[Keenosan]

Lin,

This is what I was talking about with "simulated" intarsia. The picture has six different levels of relief and when you carve it in CW, it looks like you did intarsia for real.

[TCboy]

yeah that looks great. i also got a good one. check it out. Hope the lovely lady says yes. would like to say thank you to whoever posted the dove .mpc

[JOHNB]

Hcm_bill, Here's Something I Just Made Up(worked Over). Use By Itself Or Add To Another..

[Kenm810]

I have this file if someone could work with it, I hope it's what your looking for.

[gtj44]

Here's a Eagle's wing with a heart in the middle. The Initials in the heart can be changed to suit anybody's desire.

[Kenm810]

JOHNB and gtj44,

This morning while looking through the Gallery,
I saw your post of the Heart with Wings and remembered the Helmet on the Cross file posted the other day.
And for several moments, thought of all those, including some guys I knew, "who gave up their tomorrows, so we could have our today’s."
I really hope you don’t mind, but I combined your files as a carving to help remind me more often.

Thanks

[Keenosan]

I've got a lot more shapes. I'll know by how many people download these whether or not to post more different ones.

[Dirtydan]

.ptn files available on my site....

[Kenm810]

Thanks Guys,

Here it the layout for the plaque for a fallen soldier. Any ideas? I will be doing this in oak.

[TCboy]

got some new one's guys. these are the three that i drew up to propose to my girlfriend. need some outside opinion. which one is the best?

[leesheridan]

I like no. 3 the best, but then I wouldn't accept either <g>. Your girlfriend, however, might just like diamonds more. I know mine did. but that was before the CarveWright was around too.

Bob

What you have is fine but with the posting before yours and the proposal that you have put :cool:together is the one I like.

[Keenosan]

Enough people downloaded the others that I think this won't be wasted space.

[Keenosan]

If you have any specific shapes that you want, let me know and I'll try.

[Kenm810]

How about a couple of quick ones for Halloween

Here's another pretty decoration for a box lid or something like that.

[JOHNB]

A Gate I Made With Paint.net
Mirror

[Keenosan]

This is the lid to a box I'm making as a present for my daughter. The first picture is of the pattern alone, the second of the lid after I put her name on it.

[Frank]

This is a pattern I created with my probe. This is also my first time writing and uploading anything on a forum. Hope it works.

[Keenosan]

Here is the rest of my daughter's present. The front and back are the same (Chip Box 02) and the two sides are the same (Chip Box 03.) I made her box 9"X15"X6", but you can make one whatever size you want by stretching and compressing the patterns.

[dustyshp]

Just got scan probe extention and want to try it out.
I have not carved this yet but it does have alot of detail.
I have downloaded alot of great patterns from here just wanted to share a little.

[Kenm810]

Hi Ken,

Got some plans for combining Michael's wreath and Dusty’s pine cones?

Remember if someone has posted an mpc file, and they don't mind.
You can open the cut list and do a copy on the cut or ptn and drop it into your own mpc project.

[dustyshp]

CarveWright sent me the extension because I had to change to the 14 pin cable, which moves your probe cable to the left side of the machine.

I tried to send the pnt file befor but it did not attach. I just tried again and it worked must be operator error. (I get alot of those)

There is a red x in the pnt box of the manage attachments not sure what that means?

[Kenm810]

Hi John,

The pine cones can be sized, clustered, colored, and carved as separate patterns and placed as appliques on the wreath where ever you may like them.
That way you do the same thing with other independently carved candy canes, little bells, doves, ribbons, toy soldiers,
Like Michael T mentioned or any thing else you might like.
Barb want's to do Little pink and blue bows with the Kids and Grand kids names on them, for their front doors. http://www.carvewright.com/forum/images/icons/icon6.gif

[Keenosan]

I tried doing these as raised 3D carvings, but some elements were too thin to carve without breaking off, so I went back to the drawing board and incised them and they worked really well.
