    I found a nice wreath on Vectrics website and will post the G-code if anyone wants it.
    You will need to be able to mill 3/4 inch wood and able to use a 1/4 inch endmill.
    This thing take hours and hours to cut out but it is looking pretty awesome.
    It was free on their website and I couldn't find any disclaimers about posting it so do you think it would be alright Mark? Attached files [​IMG]

    Here are some pictures of the process on my machine, you can see the difference of the rough cut with the 1/4" bit and the finish pass with the 1/8" ballnose bit

    AWESOME JOB :good: :good: :good: :good: :good:

    That looks like a BlackFoot 4 x 8 CNC machine. I am building one of those.
    I am going to use Open Rail and 3/4" steel angle instead of the aluminum
    that came with the Black Foot kit.

    Happy Holidays. :D
