Gift for an engineer

Hi had the X-Carve running for five days now and have made this, a good friend of mine was a mechanic for Alan Mann Racing and then Broadspeed which many years ago raced MK I Ford Escorts and this image is of a car that he built. I used Inkscape, F-Engrave and UGS.

Awesome work! But 5 days? what feed rate?

I think he means it’s been together and working now for 5 days. Not that the carve took 5 days.

Almost looks like there was some sort of edge detection processed on a file and then that was used to trace.

Spot on Jer I think I traced bitmap on Inkscape using multiple greys and then chose the layers that fitted the image the best.
