I carved everything on the machine using some AI prompted height maps and edited them inside carbide create.
I used oak, poplar, and cedar.

That looks great! Good texture on the hinges looks so real.

Used a 1/4 ball nose for the roughing.
Finish pass was 1/8 ball nose with a 0.008 step over.
Using a 1/16th end mill for the finger joints I cut them with a outside contour and they fit together nicely.

What a fun project. Thanks for the detail of bits used. Love the hinges, did you design them or is there a file somewhere I could access?

I made them with some AI assistance I can upload the files and height maps I used.
Yes, please. Like you I use a variety of means to develop designs and produce finished pieces. Always looking to learn more.
