So my wife wants this mirror, but wants it out of wood. I wanted to see if anyone has any suggestions on how to design this. She wants the outside edges to be 44 inches X 32 inches. If I can carve out 4 sides, I can easily join them as a frame for the mirror.
Any help getting started would be great!
It should just be a matter of drawing each “stone” outline, offsetting a bit to create a surround, adjusting the outlines for an organic appearance, then offsetting some more, judiciously drawing in the additional geometry, then modeling in 3D.
Probably if one did epoxy one could do each colour individually and allow them to have a rounded appearance and not need to flatten.
Once I create one of the stones, I think I can copy it and then just modify it randomly.

Nice!
Looking forward to seeing how the toolpaths and cut turn out!
You need to be careful of re-using geometry — offset to one side or the other.
It will cut according to the settings of the 3D toolpaths and how they interact with the selected tooling.
