Looking for a pro with Vectric Vcarve

Hi,

I’m looking for a pro with Vectric Vcarve to help me get a project set up. I’m using a Bobs CNC Revolution router and am trying to carve designs on sphere. I’m trying to create a prototype and just struggling to figure out how to get the software to do what I want. I’d be happy to pay somebody who would be willing to do a zoom call with me or even independently set up the .crv file so that I can get this thing made.

Please let me know!

Hi Matt, I saw something a couple of weeks ago where someone used blender to create a “skin” from a 3D model and then used that “skin” unwrapped to carve on a rotary connected to Y axis. I’ll see if that’s something which will work with the sphere.

Do you have a 3D model of your spherical design?

Don’t know if you already saw this but I found this after a quick search.

here is the info on using a bunch of tools to unwrap a 3D shape and get it onto a rotary tool:
