100yr Homestead Photo Complete

[sbest1]

As promised, here is the result of the painting. I added the name and year on the blank piece. This cut out well at 5' wide. The only thing I wasn't happy with was the left side - back window. It has over 500 lead ins, so could eliminate some detail as well. They wanted 2 ox and a pig added because that was what the farm was started with, as well as a third window down the left side. Thanks to those who assisted, maybe someone can use this. Any comments would be welcome.

DXF Re-Sent
I apologize for sending the wrong dxf file. This one is the completed dxf. I sure hope no one cut the other. Please replace your previous dxf with this one. Sorry!

Excellent! Thanks for the file. What did you cut it from and did it warp much? That's a heap of cuttin.

Thats really cool.... I dig the pig and the cows

Thanks for the comments. I cut it out of 14 gauge so it wouldn't warp and would have a bit of stiffness. They plan on mounting it with a background board so the detail will show, and letting it rust naturally. This is my first attempt at working off a painting, I'm sure the next one will go faster. This one was cut at 5' wide and it held all the pieces, any smaller and probably would lose some. Here is a pic of the finished piece.

What brand of plasma cutter did you use on the homestead?
Thanks, Dawg

Thanks for the comments. We have a Hypertherm 1000 Plasma Cutter and a 4'x 8' table.
