Thank you for the complements, It realy give a carving a differnt look I guess, And no staining , just a clearcoat. James its very simple to do, You trace out the pieces with a drawing program, I use pattern wizard, It's actually a staind glass pattern program , Then I cut it out with a scroll saw, I do that because I have a little whip in my machine but it may cut things out better than I do with the saw lol. then I glue the pieces together onto a backing, 1/4" mdf then machine it as you would a block of wood. ill try to make a tutorial on this so ppl can follow it . Its very simple . And I dont mind sharing my work flow. All the wood I use is cedar exept the frame, its bl walnut and the flower part is pine. Theres the pattern if you want to try, Make sure its the same size as your model before machining. there ya go have fun. Graham
