You young Olfs want remember that slogan Anyway here is a 3D rendered pic of a custom rosette for my next client. I like it a lot . So!! I thought I would share It is Paua/Koa/BWB

Only thing I don't like is 48 perfling miters

oh come on that looks like you could make that rosette blindfolded, with
only one finger being used...

Ok so actually that looks tough, but cool!

Love it, love it, love it!

Nice idea. Now all you have to do is cut it all out with a cnc....that will make them miters easy!

I'm wondering how it would look with red heart instead of paua....Mmmmmmm delicious!

Red heard is perfect but rejected by client. Red Heart is what I suggested. But you know how this song ends

I like that design a lot, Michael. Listen to some great music while you're toiling away at that.

Sorry guy I am haveing all sorts of fun playing with our new 3D rendering software update It does a lot better job of replicating finished woods. I have all settings on mid quaility right now to save rendering time but I have to say it is pay no attintion to the spruce because it is a canned light wood template that came pre packaged with the software but the koa and pearl I createdMichaelP38840.5968287037

It would look cool, but the outboard "Dial-Home-Device" is a bit bulky.
