For those wishing to CNC reproduce photographic type images on wood (without the use of a laser) you may find this interesting. http://hobbycncart.com/forum/46-234-1
You may need to use Google Translate but the thread has links to a couple of Russian videos showing just how simply it can be done.
To enable this method, Zoli (one of the forum members) has written a beta program ‘G-ray’ which produces Mach3 compatible GCode which varies the axis feed-rate in accordance with the image pixel value and there is a download link for any that may be interested.
I think this should be regarded as a development project but for those who like to experiment it certainly has possibilities.
Tweakie.
