I am currently trying out Vcarve as I would like to learn lithoplanes. I found this video on how to create them but the version I have does not have all the tools in the modeling tab that this video shows. How come? Do I have to turn them on somewhere?
Please advise.
Thank you for your time
Bill
Where are all the tools in the Model tab?

Hi Bill,
VCarve cannot create Lithophanes on its own. The tutorial is for Aspire.

All is not lost if you go on Thingiverse they allow you to create a lithophane that you can export as an stl. Then import your lithophane into vcarve to cut.

Another option, cut through the chase and purchase photovcarve, $150 is a bargain IMO.
