My second project(s) with my CNC router are maple cutting boards with black walnut inlay. Used V-carve software with a 90 deg v-bit. Amazingly easy once I watched the tutorials and figured it out
First one is a Goodyear wingfoot logo from an old advertising sign. I found photo of old sign on Google Images, did a screenshot of just the logo, and imported into V-carve Pro 9.0. I easily created vectors from the image, and created a (positive) pocket for the maple and (negative) raised image for the walnut inlay.
I made the second and third cutting boards for church youth group fundraiser. I imported their logo and camp logo and easily created the vectors. Raffling both off raised several hundred dollars each for the program.
The fourth board was just for fun for my son's honey company using a bee silhouette downloaded from the internet.
