Estimates for a mid-size hobby machine (Shapeoko, X-Carve, Onefinity class). Scaling all three axes together keeps the depth in proportion; for thinner stock scale Z on its own. Hardwoods with fine grain (cherry, hard maple, walnut, basswood) hold this detail best. Check your exact setup in Will it cut, free, nothing uploaded.

How we estimate carve time

Finishing is one raster pass over the whole carving with the ball nose shown, at 10% stepover and half of a 1,800 mm/min (71 in/min) feed. Roughing assumes about 45% of the block above the base is waste, cleared with the end mill shown at 40% stepover and 3 mm per pass (1.5 mm for the 1/8 in end mill) at the full feed. The model leaves out acceleration, tool changes and moves between passes, so a real job usually takes somewhat longer. Times are rounded to 5 minutes.

Opens directly in Aspire, VCarve Pro, Carveco, ArtCAM and Fusion 360, and in any slicer for 3D printing. For a laser, the relief is first turned into a greyscale depth image, which our Laser Studio app does from this STL. STL only, no OBJ or DXF: the DXF files used in CNC work hold 2D outlines, not the 3D relief surface. Scale it to whatever panel you are cutting. Scaling all three axes together keeps the depth in proportion; scale Z on its own for a shallower carve. How to open it in your software.

About this design

A big largemouth bass breaks the surface, mouth open and tail kicking, while a worn rod and reel lean against weathered fence boards and an open tackle box spills out lures. There is a quiet story in this one. Anyone who has spent a dawn on the water will feel it the moment the finished carve catches the light. The wide planked center sits empty on purpose, waiting for a name, a lake, or the words GONE FISHING. This is a high-detail bas-relief STL built for makers who care about depth and shadow. The scales, the reel knurling, the rope coil, and the splashing water all read clean once the bit clears them, and the recessed wood-grain background gives the whole scene that hand-carved look. It is ready for Aspire, VCarve Pro, Carveco, and ArtCAM, and scales to whatever size your sign or panel needs. Run it on a CNC router in pine, oak, walnut, or MDF, or send it to a 3D printer for a lighter display piece. For a crisp result, rough it out with a 6mm end mill at 40 percent stepover, then finish with a 3mm ball nose at 10 percent stepover. The blank field carves smooth, so dropping in your own text later is easy. Think cabin signs, tackle shop displays, man cave wall art, and Father's Day gifts for the angler who already has everything.

Burn this design, or burn onto it

Laser Studio opens this STL with zero conversion and turns them into a ready-to-burn 3D-illusion engrave. Carving on your CNC instead? CNC Match lines up a name, a date or shading on a photo of the finished piece, so the laser burns right onto the carving.
