Another simple idea and easy to mill walldecoration.

That just looks too cool.
Are you going to paint the top black?

I got one that has the natural wood look (this one in the pictures) and sold one that was painted white.

I like it! How did you create the vectors?

Very cool, Franklin!
Phil - one way to do it...
Make your own fingerprint with dark ink on white paper, make a scan or good quality high-res photo, bump the contrast high in a Photo Editor, import the high contrast photo into the Vectric software, Auto Trace, node edit here and there if necessary. Might even offset the vectors a little if you want to "fatten-up" the ridges. Away you go!
Then cross your fingers you're not wanted by any law enforcement organizations that might spot your fingerprint.

The "millions" of emoticons tickle me.

Ok, we watch those home buying TV shows, yanno, the ones where someone ALWAYS has to say:
"Well Honey, WE can put our 'stamp" on this one..."
Call up the real estate agents in your area, tell them you can now put a huge fingerprint on those fixer uppers!

Franklin,
Since folks at work found out I have a new CnC I have been elected 'going away gift' plaque maker...
Below is the current one I'm working on; it has a fingerprint within the outline of the globe and I'm not real happy with the result. The outer portion is an iris, not wild about that result either lol, but still a work in progress.
Would you be willing to share your design file? I tried methods mentioned but poor results.
Thanks,
Scott
