About this design

An old chief looks down with the weight of a long life in his face, his feathered headdress sweeping back while a grizzly stands guard at his side. There is a quiet strength here, the kind that fills a room once it is carved into walnut and catches the light across every feather and tuft of fur. This is a piece people stop and study. What you get is a high-detail bas-relief STL built for clean cutting. The depth is genuine, from the deep recesses behind the headdress to the raised muzzle of the bear, and the toolpaths come off smooth with the right setup. The braided hair, the carved staff, and the layered feathers all hold their definition without fuss. It is tested and ready for Aspire, VCarve Pro, Carveco, and ArtCAM, and it runs well on a CNC router or a 3D printer. For best results, rough the surface with a 6mm end mill at 40 percent stepover, then come back with a 3mm ball nose at 10 percent stepover to pull out the fine facial detail and fur. Use it for wall art, a lodge plaque, a cabin sign, or a one of a kind gift for someone who loves wildlife and Native art. This is an instant digital download with commercial use included, so you can carve it for your own walls or sell the finished pieces at shows and shops. Add it to your cart, send it to your machine, and let the chips fly.

Have a laser too?

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.
