Absolutely beautiful Andre!

What brand V-bits are you spinning there? I take it that it is made from western red cedar? You're not too far from me, care to divulge your supplier? Any that I've gotten around here (Mendards) is so light/airy having such wide growth rings that it cuts horribly!

Thanks for the video.

hopefully the fence will end up deserving the gate!

I want to thank every one for the kind compliments. I used to get notified upon replys from the forum and have not checked in for a while.
This one took some hours in composing and tool pathing. I used 90 120 60 degree bits on the v carvings and an onsrud .125 ball point bit for the finish tool paths on the 3d's. Both sides of the gate are identical. It took about 7 hours per side.
