Hello guys,
I’m just wondering where i could find a simple engrave design of a deer and tree file that already has the G code ready to go. The photo below is what im kinda intrested in. Still new with designing but i know with time
I could possibley knock this one out. But to save time Ithought I should ask. I’ve been searching etsy but havent come across anything close to what I want.
Have a great weekend guys,
Thanks
Steve
Have you tried tracing that image in Carbide Create as-is? You’d probably have to do a little editing after, but it might work without a lot of extra effort.
Imported it into CC for ya, def needs a little cleanup.

This is what I got with about 2-3 minutes of effort:
It’s a pretty low-res image, so this doesn’t seem too bad to me.

Honestly I prefer to set the image as a semi transparent background and put a bit more time into it than the autotrace as fixing the autotrace is a bit of a nightmarish amount of work sometimes (granted it’s awesome you guys do good work and when it works it really works) so if you feel confident go at it and when you’re done highlight everything and select Join vectors in the design tab. The hardest part is really understanding how nodes work and avoiding unnecessary geometry.
Finally SAVE OFTEN I have crashed and lost hours numerous amounts of time while doing linework and it has made me so so frusterated in the past but saving often as a habit is a really easy and good habit to form.
Thanks guys, really appreciate the support here, ypu all are amazing. As soon as i get back to the shop i’ll put these tips and insights to work. I’m itching to place this logo on the bottom corner of my PB board as an example of what we can offer our clients. On that note, after catching up on our summer oders i can finally focus our efforts on our pro 5 4x4.
Bender Out!
The results would be better with a cleaner original image.
Link to the original source?
Is it possible to license the original vector?
