I recently found this board and have been checking out the compucarve model at sears. My main purpose for it would be carving within an area of about 1 7/8" x about 6 1/2". Small areas I know. I would like to get some kind of idea of what kind of detail can be done within such an area. I know it wont carve outrageous stuff but what is reasonable?? I would be interested in carving wildlife and outdoors stuff such as wild turkey, bobcat, coyote, fox, just face pics on some and on others the whole thing, some carved and others in raised partial 3-d . I also would like to do some acorns, oak & maple leaves etc on other piece, which I know should be doable without problems, its the animals Im concerned with. I know the depth would be shallow and that is perfectly fine.
Question is has anyone done anything around this scale that I can see? Do you guys think it is for me? Id really like to give the machine a go and am anxious to put in my order (LOL) but would hate to pay the scratch if I cant really use it like id need to.
