"wood' crest.

We have two crests in progress for the Copper Crown Suite of the Hazelnut Inn. One will be made of ‘wood’ and hung inside the suite over the exterior door. The second crest will be ‘carved from stone’ and will be mounted over the exterior fireplace. Our ShopSabre CNC router did the bulk of the carving on both pieces. Each crest is whittled from a 30” x 30” x 3.5” block of 30 lb Precision Board. I then pressed on a thin coat of sculpting epoxy to sculpt in the woodgrains. The ‘stone crest will receive the same treatment, but I’ll add a sandstone texture instead of woodgrain. One more hour will be spent finishing the sculpting on this piece, and then on to the stone version. They will paint up real nice, I’m sure.
