Let me give an example.
Lets say I want to create the Trout Clock (which is for sale in the Project store), How do you do that? I have tired importing from a photo (see below), and the results are not predictable. For instance, the image of my daughter below, when I actually carved it, her nose was concave rather than convex, but the rest of her was ok. Obviously, the software extrapolated from the original photo and decided what was inward and outward... how do you customize carvings? I have seen amazing work on this site and others, but nowhere is there information on how to create your own designs.
I love the machine, but I am getting really frustrated. Again, I am usually really good at figuring out new software.. and I am used to a variety of 3d cad programs, but this one has me stumped.
Thanks,
Chris
