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"

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.
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"

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.

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.

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.

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.

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