For the lantern, I plan to recreate a box TV from the 80s out of wood, then make a screen out of acrylic that will let light through. This should give the impression that the TV is on. I wanted something that had a strong emphasis on light and dark, so I temporarily put this…
Lauren Waddick – Layers Project WIP Critique
Here is the progress I’ve made on the layers project. I got a layout of the different layers distinguished and managed to get a cut made on one of the smaller laser cutters. Because it was smaller though, I had to reduce the size of the drawing making it so many of the smaller cut…
Layers Project WIP – Madison Little
I’ve started looking into buying the wood and clock kit for my clock. I’m still changing the design so the clock mechanism can go in the middle. I plan to make the clock approximately 10″ in diameter but I might make it smaller. I found two clock kits that would fit well with a 10″…
Drawing #2 and #3 – Mebi Nosike
For Drawing #2 I choose the Arsenal logo because it is my favorite team in the Premier League and I am a soccer fan. The engraving is in black and the cutting is in red. For Drawing #3 this is what I got after playing around with it for some time. I used rectangles and…
Layers WIP – Laura Pellowski
I have separated out all of my layers, and I have a laser appointment on Thursday to start cutting out my layers. The main question I have is if I should raster more? I am debating rastering the dinos and/or the mountains to create more texture, but I am not exactly sure what I specifically…
Layers WIP – Griffin Bowers
For this work in progress I created the design in illustrator with 5 different sizes of infinity symbols. I intend to cut 2 of each size besides the smallest. I then will glue them together to make an hourglass shape sculpture. The image on the left is what it would look like from a top…
Layers design WIP – Kaitlyn Nguyen
The first image is what I cut on the laser printer, each item being its own layer. Here i had them all visible but they are on separate layers. The power I used did not end up cutting all the way so the edges are a bit sharp. I miscalculated the hole sized with the…
Layers design Concept Sketch- Kaitlyn Nguyen
I wanted to make a kind of diorama with a mountain with layers and in each layer has a piece that sticks up. Here I only drew a dragon but it would simulate a piece of land where a creature could be. The mountain would be layers of wood and each wood layer would have…
Rachel May Layers Project WIP
I took the slices of my volcano that I got from Kirimoto and put them into Inkscape. I had to clean up a lot of extra lines, but I reached layers that I am pretty happy with. I am still deciding how big to make this project since there is a good amount of detail…
First Cuts: Haley Gilbert
Better late than never!… here are my first three cuts on the laser cutter. I am very happy with how they came out especially the map. Although it is small the vector engrave did a really good job with all the detail at such a small scale, so I made it into a keychain. I…
