Although not as nice as Michael's wreaths, I did this in VCP.
I will do some more work on it before I cut it, but I think it might be nice enough for a test cut.
I would like to add a bow too.

Re: Wreath
I made some adjustments and added a bow.
It's still not quite where I want it, but it's getting there.

Re: Wreath
That is certainly impressive. Could you possible tell us more about how you created this and I also would like to see some photos after you have cut it.
Very nice work so far

Re: Wreath
Scott the drawing tools in vcarve are the same as those in Aspire as far as I know so you should have the Copy along vector tool. its the 4th icon along in the "offset & Layout " section of the drawing tab
That will copy the model around a circular vector for a job like this

Re: Wreath
Thanks Martin, but two promised projects behind(and a LOT of tutorials) and still winterizing before snow flies.
Once a decent snow sticks, I'll have a lot of time for playing with designs(playing with a mod of Beki's Bowl for one of my burls too:)
Thanks again Martin:)

Re: Wreath
I like the design but would appreciate a little more detail on how you did it. Hopefully one of the strengths of the forum is not only to show off what we do but share the how we did it. More information like wood, bits, feed rates, design techniques are educational and appreciated.
I understand the ring and the berries but not sure about the leaves. Are they a 3D model you brought into VCP or did you do some magic with toolpaths that appear to be 3D?
