If you are in the US then another option is to have Brady Watson at Ibild.com do the scanning for you. This would allow you to get quality scans, and then later determine if/when you are doing enough scanning work to justify having your own setup.

Can i take a pic of a car and vcarve it look like a 3d pic. VCarve is not a 3D modeling program. To create a 3D model you would need Aspire or some other program. However, the SketchCarve toolpath can produce a nice V-carved image. If you are unsure you can download VCarvePro V12 and try it for you...

This allows actually seeing the design. It is a somewhat clunky procedure since the model not being toolpathed needs to be turned off and the actual finished piece is still a bit of a "leap of faith". I agree. I too have had to think long and hard on double-sided indexer projects where the Z-zero i...

The material is King ColorCore: 24"x23"X0.25", white over blue.
The section "Weather Forecasting Stone" was carved with a dull V-bit and left lots of fuzzies. The rest was carve with spiral upcut O flute bits (0.0625, 0.125, 0.25) and carved very well. This will be an outdoor sign.

Here a test I did early on that showed that the XY move should happen before the Z drops down

If you have a clamp in the lower left, then it might be better to have XY home be in the center of the project. FYI, at the end of the file my machine, rather than going to XY home, returns to the machine park position which is Z at max machine height and XY is 3/4ths of the way to the back, towards...

We would love to see photos of the mandolin during the build process.

V12.005 patch to 12.004 worked fine for me.

it is integrated in the Draw Line/Polyline tool

Click and drag with the polyline tool to create a curved line, then press 'S' to make the next line straight

We need this back for sure!

Different machines.

The V12 database shows the machine: HCNC
The V11.5 database shows the machine: Imported

Another method is to use the moulding toolpath with a Vector that is an "unwrapped" version of the hex head. You can either calculate the geometry, or find a tool that will generate the unwrapped vector.

The example below is in VCarve 11.5
