Thanksgiving is traditionally a serious time to give thanks for family, friends and spend time with loved ones. This project's combination of stylized and more realistic models creates a nice balance so you can honor family traditions and have a bit of fun too. Dress up the turkey in a pilgrim's and use him to help point guests in the direction of the food or use the Assembled Layout to create a nice wall decoration for the special event. How about a thankyou gift for the Thanksgiving dinner host or hostess?

Our Around the World - USA CNC project has been a great hit with our customers. It is just amazing to see a project like this catch on and see what kind of projects are being made with it. Vandy Harper created a fantastic finished piece that we are sure you all will appreciate.
Look at the detail and finish!!! Nice!
"The flag was made with poplar and the eagle was made with afromosa. I routed out the flag so the eagle would fit in the groove."
It sounds like Vandy may have pocketed out a flat area on the flag to accept the eagle. It looks like it fit in just perfect and the use of the two different woods realy makes the eagle stand out from the flag. Great choice!
Image for scale... wow!
Vandy sent in a picture to illustrate just how big the finished carving is. As you can see it is very impactful and is stunning on the wall.
"It's 36" wide and 32" high. It has a walnut stain with 5 coats of polyurethane. "
The coats of polyurethane make for a smooth finish that catches the light and adds to the piece.
"It took about 12 hours to carve the flag and about 11 hours to carve the eagle"
That may seem like a long time on the machine but for such a large piece and the detail that was kept from the original models, it sure paid off.
