My guess on the type of wood (unless this is some of your local exotic wood is
Yellow poplar looking closely at the grain and the way the wood took the stain.
Beautiful!

Gene,
Very nice work.
Can you share a bit more about your toolpaths.
I have a similar project I started today, 22" x 60" x 1.5" and my cutting times are around 12 hours for the rough and 30 hours for the finish.
I think mine has a bit more "open" space but your speeds are great.
Originally it was 215 hours total, so I'm getting better on the toolpath area.
I'll post a few pictures tommorow.
Thanks for the help,
Michael

Similar, yet different.

Nice panel...Are you cutting both sides? On the alder panel shown The cut depth was .625" each side on a 1.75" thick panel which left a .5" center thickness to fit in a dado in the rails and stiles of the door frame. .25 ball nose 11% stepover which was a little large but adds a distressed look to the finish. I ran the bot speeds at 3.5ips X,Y and 2.5ips Z.

I starting with a small section ( 20" x 20" ) useing pink styrofoam to see how it comes out.

Gene,
That is the perfect example of marrying old world craftsmanship and modern technology. Great job...as usual.
