    Want to fine a photo carving software

    Hi there
    I found some nice photo engravings on wood and want to find out what kind of software can create the tool path for it.
    These are called " Photocarver "
    I have 4' x 4' cnc router and using Vcarve pro.
    I appreciate your help.

    Those look like the sort of thing Halftoner does. It's a free program. Here's the link: CNC Software

    Hi Luke
    I have tried Jason's free programs.
    It was exactly what I wanted.
    I have done my lovely dog ready to engrave now !
    Thank you for your help.
    Cheers,
    Tak

    Since you already have Vectric's Vcarve Pro how about using their PhotoVcarve?

    Picengrave Pro 4 does allot better job and is around half the price. It has options for photo engraving with a spindle or a laser diode and has 4th axis rotary engraving option also. It also has a Feedrate change (variable feedrate) option to slow down the feedrate in deeper cut areas so smaller bits won't break from high chip loads. It's a one of a kind program.
