After many attempts I was able to finally get the project to a state that I like! Someone in class recommended to move the paint tab a little so that it was also on top of the youtube tab so I did! I also did the engravings on the windows wall paper. I am very…
Lantern Design
I used makercase to create a 6x4x4 box, and I plan to make a lantern featuring a vector drawing of Shin Kamen Rider.

Going to attempt my first 3D print here at WPI with this weird design that just kind of created itself in my head.
Layers Project
Continuing with my lighting bolt theme, I created a multilayer lighting bolt spinner. Should I paint the project a darker color, like dark blue or black?

For my lantern project I decided to go with a 3:2 aspect ratio kerf bent box that displays a night time mountain/moon scene. The housing will be made of wood and then the three inner panels will be clear or colored acrylic that is under lit with LED strip lights.One question I have is whether…
Layers Project Update
I was able to cut out the different pieces on plywood and assemble them, but I had to convert the svg file into xps because spectrum couldn’t read my svg. After the conversion, the xps file doubled the amount of vector paths on everything therefore a lot of details on Godzilla are overly burnt and…

Here is the current state of my layers project. I am very pleased with how it looks currently, however, I ran into many problems while making it. The biggest of these problems was trying to trace the bitmap of the original file I based the piece off. A question I have about my work is…
First Cuts – Saranya Pujari
Here are my first cuts, just a little late! I cut my computer-generated image on the wood. It took a while, and I couldn’t get the small laser to work, but the big laser worked as I expected it to! I initially used too many passes for the thickness of the wood, so I adjusted…

For my lantern, I decided to work on a small, simple box that defines what courage means to me. It has the words “courage” written along the sides of it in the three languages that have played a defining role in my heritage and identity. I designed images to go on the other two faces….

I wanted to emulate cracks for the lantern project. The red is going to be a light engraving and the purple would be a deeper engraving. The light is going to come out of the cracks like the engraved example that was shown in class. I will be putting in a lightbulb to get a…

okay, been a while but I have a lot of updates! First off, I took a free head model off of Thingiverse to start, and I initially sliced that to get a picture of what to expect. It had a very neutral expression though, so I took it into zBrush to give it some emotion….

I want to design a nether portal from Minecraft that can be turned on and off. I plan to use black painted plywood to create the frames, with purple cardstock behind the holes. In the center will be a sheet of engraved acrylic lit by LEDs along the top that are inside the frame. I…

For this project, I wanted to create a box case for a diffuser. I bought a diffuser online and hopefully, it will serve as my LED source. With my design, there will be a hole at the top of my box to allow the diffuser to work. So far I have created designs for the…
Lantern Design Plan
My plan for my lantern is to use cardboard to make a short box with one of the sides missing. That opening will allow me to slide my phone into the box and use its adjustable flashlight as a light source. The top face of the box will host the design which I traced in…
Initial Lantern Design – Andrew Roush
From talking to a few people I have learned that you can strait up engrave images on the laser. This only works with the newer smaller laser though. I plan to make a 4x4x4 cube with rounded corners by bending the wood. I’m going to test having images engraved into the bent portion, but we…

I am planning to make my lantern out of cardboard and paper. The box will be made of cardboard and will have a hole in the front which will be covered in a layered paper deign. I am also thinking of maybe painting it black so that the main focus of the lantern will be…

For my Lantern Project I decided to make a disco ball type shape. The technical term for this shape is a dodecahedron which is made up of 12 pentagon shaped tiles. The design of the cutouts on each pentagon was mostly random, but constrained with lots of geometry based off of the pentagon shape. I…

In this project I will attempt to make a growing tree scene within my lantern. I would like to make the vessel spin if it is possible to add an interesting spin on the design. I took inspiration from several sources such as the tree box image, the hexagon bees image, and the greatest showman…

For this project, I’m hoping to recreate the Steal Your Face symbol in 3ish D using bottom-lit laser-cut acrylic. The essential components of this project will include a box for holding each of the “slides” and three laser cut/engraved “slides” (Red, Blue, White/grey) as well as lights power supplies, and controllers. An additional aspect that…

My lantern design in based on the song “Ptolemaea” by Ethel Cain. The song is horrifying and beautiful in a extremely unique way, and I’ve been listening to it often. Based on the lyrics and feel of the song, I designed these 3 sides for the lantern; the fourth side will have the song lyrics…
Lantern Design – Percy
For my lantern, I was greatly inspired by the piece that used inward raster engraving to create unique sources of light on what initially appears to be a blank cube. I decided to use this idea for my lantern as well. A cube is a simple shape, but can look neat and unassuming at first….

My idea for my lantern design is to create a creature in a tank!

For my lantern design, I was inspired by the lanterns in the movie Tangled which is my best friend’s favorite Disney movie. I decided to make this lantern for her and incorporate some images from the movie. I plan on making it out of plywood and maybe adding tissue paper behind the cuts. The other…
