You've no doubt seen the wooden Christmas ornament globes that have 4 cameos on the surface.  Bob Brokaw showed how the cameos start out as a plaque.  A pattern is then made on a computer by importing a profile picture of a family member into DeltaCAD on the computer and then tracing the profile to create a crisp resizable silhouette.  The resulting tracing is then properly resized to fit the plaque and then printed to be applied to the plaque.  Once applied to the plaque and stacked with a contrasting wood color the assembly is cut on a scroll saw and applied to the core of the ornament.
