Colt 1911
I did this for the local club.
Used Vcarve Desktop, imported a STL file of a Colt 1911. Did three passes, first roughing with a 6mm end mill, second roughing with a 1.5 mm end mill, finished with a 20 degree carve bit.
Second roughing Carving The result

Re: Colt 1911
Here is my Vcarve-file.
All measurements are in mm.
As the file was quite large, I could not upload it with the tools and gcode. The file was 12MB large, I tried to ZIP the file, it went down to 4.7MB, still could not upload it.
So, the attached file is without toolpath. Sorry about that.

Re: Colt 1911
Thank you for the file. Also, I wasn't sure about the wood. It looks like it has a lot of spalting in it but on the other hand I felt I was looking at minerals in the wood. Regardless, it looks great.

Re: Colt 1911
That looks really good.
It's amazing what you can find in a piece of scrap wood.
