9.5" x 14" litho

Post by mccoy178 »

Here is a litho I did for a legendary coach in our community. 1/2" corian, 8/4 cherry base cut with Aspire.

That is neat! What did you use for the light behind it? Did you cut out the edge of the litho by hand? Thanks for posting. I've done a couple lithos myself and now your taking it to the next level.

Thanks fellas! I used one of those hockey puck lights with a fancy housing from Lowe's. In regards to the outline, I brought the PhotoCarve into Aspire, used the vector tool to make an outline then offset that by .125 so that the photocarve would have a touch of rigidity. VCarve could do the same thing.

EDIT: We are working on a hall of fame at the school I work at, and this coach was a legend here in town. I plan to do a photo map around him of all his former teams in a collage.
