Logo Inlay Project (Part 1) - CAD

I wanted a project that would combine woodworking, metalworking, CNC, and a few other skills. I decided to make a physical representation of my YouTube channel's logo out of aluminum and walnut as a way to not only learn some new skills, but also promote my channel a bit more. This project is less about the final result, and more about learning along the way! This project also shows just how much work goes into a project.

In part 1, I show you how I get my logo into Solidworks and manipulate the design so it's compatible with the final inlay design.
