Due to the limited size of my CNC, this was cut in 3 parts. Pics are when just off machine. I still have to do sanding and cleaning up before staining and finish. Total time was 27hrs. Depth of cut was 22mm. Plan is to mount this above a doorway in log cabin.
I will come back with pics when finished.

Sanded, stained, finished now waiting for it to dry. Phone pics just don't do it justice.

Wow. That's mighty purty Dan. Did you cut each scene separately, then move the piece over to cut the next, or is you CNC large enough to do all at once?

The finish really helped bring out the detail in the carvings. Is that doorway you are haning this above have double doors or will it extend past both sides?

It is a 60" opening between two rooms. There are no actual doors.

Looks nice! Never would have thought of staining red cedar, but I like the look. What color stain did you use?

Sir, you are very talented and the work you show, allows one to know you also have imagination. I do think with a larger machine, your talents would show up even more so. You do fine, beautiful and detailed work.
