I've been a fan of F1 since Suzuka 2005. Think 1AM Sunday in a bar, how bored i was that i started looking at this race. I was hooked.

Since then i must have missed maybe 5 races at most.

I'm starting this wall of famous F1 tracks. The first one is Spa-Francpchamps in Belgium. My favorite! The speed, the changes in elevation, ...

This type of project is very easy to make and i exhort anyone to join in on making these if you are a fan., If you not a fan, go watch Drive to Survive, you need it!

Step 1: Get the track image from the F1 site and bring it over to your CAD software. Vectorize the image and clean it so you just keep the track lines.






Step 2: Create the inside and outside operations. Depending on how you are holding the stock add tabs. Export the toolpath.









Step 3: Start the job by going to OpenBuidls Control, loading the file, and starting the cut.



Step 4: I coated the top surface with Poly to give it that change in tone.


Step 5: Hang it on the wall with double-sided tape.



Note: The F1 logo was done in the same manner
