Fellow Forum Rabble,
I finally got past the rush of signs and plaques I've been making (six months of designs built up in Designer while I waited to pay off my machine in Lay A Way). Now I get around to setting up a scanning sled and reading the various posts and instructions/video and I have a problem.
I've long wanted to reproduce an eagle with crossed flags that I designed and carved by hand years ago and it was going to be my first project when I bought a Duplicarver. The CarveWright in the end won out for it's advanced features like scanning. The problem is I'm ready to scan and it's just a bit too big for the CarveWright. Wing to wing tip it is 22.5 inches by 14 inches tall (wide) by 3/4 thick. No way I can see to pass it through on a sled with 13 inch max width.
Looking for ideas or a member/source where I can send the carving and have it accurately scanned, to then scale the pattern down to a board width that will fit into the CarveWright and proceed to make sawdust. I realize I could make larger versions by carving on multiple boards but we'll look at that later.
A view of the carving over my front door.
I'd appreciate any suggestions or leads because I recognize when I just can't "Do It Yourself." Thanks as always and I really appreciate the advice and guidance offered here among friends.
