Would it be possible to provide a data format by which one could upload custom inlay layers to produce a design of his choosing? I'm thinking specifically about a silhouette photograph I shot of my son. Is there a way to validate the manufacturability of an arbitrary layer set?
beautiful. @gabesmed is the wood sustainable & ethically sourced?
Also, to the creators - it would be great to have a "pricing" page to explain this!

I'd like to have a little more control, so I could fit, say, Yosemite Valley in the 5x16 by rotating the map a little.
For the curious: Default is $105 for an 8"x8" map. 20"x16" is $350. It appears that wood species choice has no impact on pricing, but I didn't want to abuse their render queue with any more experiments. :) Also, to the creators - it would be great to have a "pricing" page to explain this!

Heya, I'm the developer behind Woodcut Maps! The site is built on python/django and hosted on AWS. Most of the interesting work happens in python with PIL, numpy and scipy. We download maps tiles (Google for now, working on an OSM render path), and split them into channels for landscape, water, roads and parks. Then we apply several steps of scipy's image morphology filters to get the masks ready for laser cutting an…
Here's a cool idea if you haven't thought of it already: Find a way to inlay routes on the map. It would be cool to plot a marathon course and give it as a gift to a friend who finishes.

This is a bit out of scope but I would love to have a similarly crafted version of john snow's classic cholera map.
