    Homebuilt cnc router for lithophanes?

    Anyone using a homebuilt cnc router to carve lithophanes?
    I have been looking at plans but I don't know if they would have the accuracy to do a lithophane. Any recommendations?

    Thanks
    Tim

    Litho

    you might pm Tony_Mac from Vectric. I saw some lithographs he brought to the show in Knoxville. I am sure he has seen it done on several.

    Yes, I have seen some post on the subject

    There is a man on the Romaxx forum who is doing this.

    This is not a home built machine but you may get some tips here.

    Allot of people have cut them on Homebuilt cnc machines, on the jgro machine, my 2006 machine and many others.

    Hi Bill,

    Your new 'Colour Lithophanes' look absolutely FANTASTIC!

    Not sure if you have posted the pictures on the zone, but anyone
    who is interested in these can see Bill's work on the Vectric Forum.
