I am a huge map nerd, I could literally sit around all day and explore google maps and not even miss dinner. I have many flaws and this might be one... Anyway, ever since moving to DC I've been wanting to do some sort of a project incorporating the streets of the city. The layout of the streets and even the shape of the city have a really interesting history behind them which makes for a very interesting map to look at. I got my hands on some old wall studs when a row house was being renovated downtown that dated back to about 1880 so I knew I had to use that material for this project. The pieces ended up being southern yellow pine with some really cool looking grain. This project was a huge learning experience for me, as much as I love to flaunt my skills as the J-Carve, I really wanted to push the limits of the CNC to make something that I couldn't reasonably do by hand. The project tested the limits of the machine, but also my knowledge base since I knew very little about more complicated CNC projects and had never used Illustrator before. But that's when you get the best results, when you jump right in! I decided to go with clear water to make a cool subtle 3d effect on the otherwise very flat map, and then the weathering accelorator created a great slight color change to the surface to set it off just enough. I'm on a bit of a wall art kick right now... onto the next one!
