I keep saying that this would make a great Tip Jar Project for someone that could do a Project and video taking a novice from start to finish. :sunglasses:

I wouldn’t mind taking on this challenge, … except for the fact that the software I use is not open source and I’d have to come up with a more “open sourcey” technique to get the contours carve-able. I have no experience with Vcarve or any of the other specialized software but I wonder if that would be a better approach for a novice?
