Took one of Todd Bailey monthly files from his http://www.4m3d.com/ site and put it to good use.

My cousin asked me to create something to ask his girlfriend to marry him.

And Todd's heart with a banner across it fit the task, created it in Artcam Insigna with the wording he wanted and send him a screen shot, he liked it and now I've trying to get a few more coats on it.

I was wanting to make the letters a bit widers but he preferred the thinner text.

Forgot a few detail, this is 36 inches wide and 20 inhes tall, 2.5 inches thick.

Western Red Cedar glued up.

So it kind of big, like his heart is for the new to soon be wife........

Looks nice, and is thick enough to reuse if she says no.

Curtiss, I should be able to do that, I just hope she say yes that way I don't have too, I've got to many other paying jobs to do.

Jack I was thinking of trying something like that, glue together the heart in red cedar and then the banner in walnut to give that look of a red candy heart wrapped with a chocolate banner, but I talked myself out of that this time.... I'll save that for a later date if and when my boy finds someone to ask:eek:
