Second post keep forgetting to post with the email I subscribed with, sorry if they both show up. T
Hi Doug; I am the EnRoute trainer and I do this type of work all the time with customers, sign companies, and foundries. EnRoute has a nice set of tools for this, but no need to spend 8K on a one off. Send me the file and I will convert it into Gcode for you. I can even do the typesetting as a 2.5 D engrave over (or around) the image. All I need is how large you want the image to be and how deep you want the relief to be. Generally these are cut with .25" or .125" ball mills, if it is a deep relief I can set up roughing passes too, but lithopanes are usually better in a low relief <.25" thick. Feel free to contact me off list. Thos.
