This was my first tryto make a Middle Earth map on the X-Carve. I modified some pictures I found online. I took some attempts to make it work but, after a lot of broken 1/32 bits, i found the right configuration.
The frame is made of 100 year old reclaimed wood with its original paint on it.
Feel free to comment how make it a bit more detailed 
Kind regards from Germany

The map looks awesome!
You should try to v carve it instead of the 1/32 bit.
That looks amazing, I don’t even what to know how long this project took. what are the ruff dimensions just so i can picture it better.
Thanks guys. I tried it with the Inventables V Engraving Bit, but it didn’w work because the material is only 3mm thick,
I’ll do the next one as an relief on a 12mm plate, thats a great idea!
The map is, including the frame, 60/75cm or 25,5/30 inches
How did you convert the map to make it come out so well? Did you use just the easel trace?
That would probably also look good engraved with a laser.
I converted the map in Inkscape and made several “layers” in easel for the outlines and text.
That looks really good.
That is pretty amazing, I love how that looks.
Love this. Now thinking how much fun it would be to do a series of wood panels of classic fantasy maps. This, Westeros, Narnia, etc.
@Testaccount I have been searching all over the interwebs for a Middle earth map to do this exact thing. Would you be willing to share your file?
