Hello,
Does anyone know if there is a company out there that sells finished dxf files or high def drawings of old stone floors (and or other walls and floor surfaces)? I would like to create the look of an old stone floor with a 5' x 10' router table.
Any information with regards to this topic would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
Lawrence

This might help http://www.spiralgraphics.biz/viewer/index.htm Depending on your software you may be able to model from the brick textures.

Good luck,

I was able to model this off a spiralgraphics texture in ArtCAM. Could look pretty cool as a wall panel, with the right finishing technique.

Artcam is a really easy way to take a B&W photo to a texture map, just change the contrast and brightness and you change the Z depth and scale. I know there are other programs that do the same thing but I'm not sure what all of them are.
I have a picture of an old stone wall done in Artcam that looks insanely realistic when dropped to a relief file. If you need some images modified into relief let me know.

http://www.vectric.com/ I think it will will do grayscale modeling. Check the vectric forum here on cnczone to be sure.

Hi and thanks. I have software to cut but I am looking for good stone patterns, artwork or dxf finished files to work with. I am simple trying to save some time. Thanks for the suggestion though!

Go to http://www.marlinstudios.com/products/st4/st4.htm

They have a classic stone works texture CD that is used by 3d artists. Included is a matching "bump map" which is a grey scale image you should be able to use for relief carving.

Best of all, their stuff is seamless which means you can tile it as much as you like!
