Opens in Aspire, VCarve Pro, Carveco, ArtCAM and Fusion 360, and on any CNC router, 3D printer or laser that reads STL. No OBJ or DXF: a DXF holds flat 2D outlines and cannot carry a three-dimensional relief. Model size as supplied: 621 x 596 x 50 mm (24.4 x 23.5 in) Shape: landscape, 1.04:1 Relief depth: 50 mm, which is 8.0% of the width Mesh: 2,024,342 triangles, 96.5 MB Base: flat and at zero, ready to machine Recommended minimum carve size: 200 mm, where 98.8% of the fine detail survives a 3 mm ball nose. Smaller carves soften the finest details. Scale it to your own panel. Scaling all three axes together keeps the depth in proportion; scale Z on its own for a shallower carve.
