Lighthouse Pattern

,

I developed this lighthouse pattern for a wooden house number I made for my mom. She needed a replacement for an old wooden number that had weathered beyond repair.

Since she loves lighthouses I wanted to engrave one, along with the number itself, on my CNC router. I searched online for suitable vector images of lighthouses, but couldnt find one simple enough to meet my needs. So I created my own.

It was specifically designed to be v-carved with a 90 degree v-carving router bit. I imported the DXF file into Vectrics VCarve Pro to generate toolpaths for my CNC router. However, it could also be used as a woodburning pattern or even for stained glass.

Truthfully, I debated whether or not it was even worth posting to the site since its so simple. However, a huge reason I have this site is because I hate to see design work, regardless of its simplicity, go to waste. My hope is that someone out there can put this to good use, rather than me just using it once and tossing it aside.

File Formats This pattern was originally created as a DXF, but Ive included several other file types for download. These are available in a ZIP file containing the lighthouse pattern in PDF, DXF (AutoCAD), AI (Adobe Illustrator), and JPG file formats. To download a copy to your computer, right click the "ZIP File" link below and then "save-as".

To view just the PDF, click on the "PDF Only" link. If youd like to download a copy to your computer, right click then "save-as". Either way, youll need the Adobe reader to view the file.
