pycarver

Python tool for estimating woodcarving time for handcarved leather

Usage

Place a black and white image in the samples folder, then load that image using the ImageLoader class

from pycarver_utils.image_loader import ImageLoader

loader = ImageLoader()
images = loader.load_images_from_dir(".\samples")

for image in images:
  cv = Carver(images[image], size=3.0, target_dpi=300.0)
  print(cv)

>>> <Carver:
                Filename: .\samples\Mezcalaria.png
                Image: <PIL.PngImagePlugin.PngImageFile image mode=RGBA size=2019x2017 at 0x214AE75D310>
                Size: 3.0
                Target DPI: 300.0
                Use Image DPI: False
                Scaled Image: <PIL.Image.Image image mode=RGBA size=900x899 at 0x214AE75EE50>
                Quantized Image: <PIL.Image.Image image mode=P size=900x899 at 0x214CF731750>
                Carving Area: 2.415477777777778
>

Where the Carving Area is the total square inches of material that need to be carved to reproduce the image

TODO

Implement the Estimator and Classifier objects to allow for existing projects to be imput to the program to better estimate time. -As of now the only data the program can determine is the area of the carved image

Implement a function in the Carver object to allow for estimation of paint areas by color.

• Extend this into the Estimator and Classifier objects to allow for the user to estimate carving time, painting time, and paint cost
