Very well made. Brushing the wood to simulate pages of the bood looks great. I also especially like the feathering of paint outside the Title Frame.
My sister-in-law is a College football fanatic. She has a big screen TV in her store so that she and her customers don't not miss any games. She is particularly fond of the Auburn Tigers.

These patterns carve really nice. Looking forward to you posting yours.
I used red oak on these, because here in the south, we don't have a lot of choice in hardwoods. I am still looking for a place to get quality hardwood locally.

If I can claim anything I do sand it, seal it, and clearcoat the finished product.
First of all, I would like to thank everyone that has helped me in the past by answering my questions, and coaching me in the inter works of the software and machine. I would also like to thank...
I didn't scratch any guns doing this.
Sarge asked for this one. Hope it helps in your project. Didn't have a helmet or dogtags, but will keep on looking.
Your absolutely right, set depth, which is 2nd option after setting second point of scan.
Also keep in mind that the probe will scan a little over 1.4", and for the S&W I needed 1.3" to get 1/2...
I have scanned my Model 685 Smith and Wesson 357 Magnum with wood S&W grips, and have NO pits or scratches to report. The Scan turned out great.
I did have to prop the gun up to scan it so that...
After a LOT of scans, I have found that coating the scan item with clear enamel prior to scanning minimizes the damage to softer materials. I let the enamel set up for 24 hours prior to scanning for...
My machine will stop the scan only after it has completed at least 1% of the scan. In short, if I try to stop it because I misjudged the top of the scan, I have to wait until the probe has completed...

I have been concentrating on patterns lately and making some birthday and special occasion plaques. I have found that wood is not as easy to detail as is medal. Wood doesn't stay put. It swells...
You are right, in order to use magic markers you need to seal the wood first and put a good coat of clear over the top once painted.
By the way I get the magic markers at K-mart pack of 12...
Cut these out this last week. My wife Judy helped with the painting. Because of the detail in leaves and butterflys, she used color magic markers.
The patterns were from allcw.com patterns.
I have been a bit busy lately and finally got to cut some projects this last week.
Most of these patterns are from allcw.com
The one that is painted is the handywork of my wife, not me.
