has anyone ever made a mold from a 3d pattern? I'm trying to figure out how I might be able to take the stone texture and concave the cut to make a mold. any ideas is greatly appreciated. thanks

With Cut3D you'd need to have the model in the correct format for the mould to start with as far as I am aware. With VCarve or Aspire you can invert the model in the software itself.
