I made this sign for my son on the CNC mill (he's really into cheetahs…).

I designed it in Fusion 360. The hardest part of the design by far was getting the curved text on the sign. I finally had to create the text along a curve in inkscape, export it as a .dxf file, and then import it into my Fusion 360 sketch.

The cheetah was engraved using the laser cutter, and the text is carved in relief and then painted black.

I'm clearly not up to Tim's level yet, but this was a first attempt!
