Anyone have a wearable bow tie project that has some dimension? Trying for something that isn’t just flat
When you say “Bow Tie”, are you talking about something a person would wear around their neck or are you talking about a wood piece used to stabilize a joint or crack?
Something to wear around the neck! Very new to this and have seen lots of pics but can’t find any projects to learn from

These are all of the bow tie projects I could find in the projects. To go full 3D you will need something beyond Easel. Do you have any software like Vectric?
A simple engraved polka-dot bow tie made from 1/8" stock. This design simulates a polka-dot fabric style, but preserves the look of the wood by just engraving the design. Endless possibilities here - could be done in any color or style of wood, could...

I was hoping for more 3D. I have vectric
Vectric has a great video using Aspire to make a 3D bow tie

I have V-Carve desktop. Any of these thingiverse .STL files can be imported into V-Carve and tool paths can be created.

I didn't like any of the bow tie designs I found, so I worked on a couple bow tie designs in sketchup.
I had to clean up the peg on the clip with a knife or file, but if you are careful they press fit and hold fairly snug.
The clip may need supports.
Bow Tie 2.0 is here! New style and thinner since 1.0 was a little fat in the middle causing it to tilt down. Like before, used 3DS Max, Simplify3d, and the amazing CR-10 to created my new favorite bow tie!
Check it out on Etsy is you want to buy one!...
