Brooches Prep...

So I've taken some paintings which I though would work well as brooches and drawn them up so I could live trace them more easily on illustrator. Been setting the thresholds right and then making an outline so the laser cutter can cut straight through the wood instead of following a drawn line, which as I found last time, means the laser cutter takes ages as it's cutting through pixels! Am going to save a lot more time!

Below are a couple of designs, where you can see the separations, I then save them as a raster file through exporting it through illustrator to a jpeg. Where as the outline for the 'cut-through' to happen is saved as an illustrator 10 file...
