Doors of Durin on lid of maple and walnut box
I carved this Doors of Durin design into curly maple on my Shapeoko 5 Pro. I surfaced both sides of the board, then used a 45 degree v bit for the design. I ran the entire carving toolpath twice to clean it up. A very talented woodworker then made it glow using CA glue and mica powder, and made the rest of the box as well! I don't have the woodworking skills to make a box like this, so I love that my CNC could contribute to something that looks this awesome :) Open to any feedback related to the CNC part of this project!
