Hey guys... and gals,
A very good friend, a retired Marine, has asked me to make a pair of display boxes for his two swords. I would like to do this for him as a gift, but I'm sure that the fiber of this gentelman will not allow it. So, while he is asking for a simple "box", if I can find it, I would love to put a 3D carving on both ends of the boxes of the U.S. Marine Corps emblem The globe, eagle and anchor.
I have yet to see the swords, but I am guessing that the end pieces would be about 6" wide x 8" tall.
I am going to post this on both the Vectric and ShopBot forums, and am hoping that someone can help be to beg, borrow or steal this... although I will pay for it.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Les
