How to 3D Carve a Topographic Map on an XCarve CNC Router: Mt. Katahdin

This video shows the process I use to create and 3d carve a topographic map of Mt. Katahdin on my XCarve. I use the STL file to carve a 10” x 7.75” model on my X-Carve CNC, using a 3” block of African mahogany.
The toolpaths are created in VCarvePro V10 using the Roughing Toolpath option and the Detail Toolpath option.
.25 Endmill for Roughing Pass
2mm Tapered Ballnose for Detail Pass
