THE 3DWAXMILLER CLUB.

Hi Curt, I wasn't sure if the small round marks were a BMP texture that was supposed to be there? Obviously they're not! Sorry, I can't help much with JWX problems. That was why I asked if the design was raised from a BMP file. Sometimes when I've used a BMP file, I've had small loose pixels that ha...

Hi Curt,

Both look pretty good, Well done!!
Question: Was all of the vetDr1 raised from a BMP or did you create it?

Thanks Winstone & Michael, Here's a photo of all the different tools that I used to do the carving on this job. It should be noted that I don't use any of the blue handled carvers for heating up & applying wax!! They're Stainless Steel, very sharp & quite expensive. I use them only for carving & sha...

Thanks Ken, The main reason was that I spent a heap of hours just creating all the seperate sections & then raising them in different ways. The artwork wasn't much help either, I had to scan a photocopy, then spend ages tidying it up. After all of that, I really just wanted to get it on the mill & t...

My whole idea of buying a mill was to help me with the roughing out of some jobs & being able to add text. Well here's a perfect example of what gets thrown at me by other Jewellers!! Design ...
