I have got a lot of requests of showing how to make a Litho using Vectric PhotoVcarve.
This piece of software can do much more then just litho’s and there are more tutorials to come.
Special thanks goes out to the Vectric company for supplying this great software.
I have been engraving acrylic many times now, and received a lot of questions.
I’m not a pro, and really don’t claim to be…
I hope you CNC fanatics learn from me, and I hope to learn from you.
Vectric PhotoVcarve is a great piece of software to turn photographs into great CNC relief.
There are many different styles that can be used within this software package.
This time i will show how you can turn a photograph into a wooden relief.
In the above picture we see a typical 2D design (for more detail see picture below).
The cnc machines we are using have at least 3 axis, the X, Y and Z axis.
In the picture X goes from left to right, Y from bottom to top and Z is the depth of the cut.
