Yes, the cost was about $1700 for the laser cutter, plus the potential for a couple hundred more for some add-ons like a pancake air compressor (because the air compressor that came with my laser cutter

Thanks, and glad you liked it! I don't know what strength laser the cutting module has for the MIGO 3D printer, but it's quite possible you will be able to cut chocolate as well. The key for you might

Glad you and your son enjoyed it! And I would be thrilled to have my post featured by curie. You are free to quote text and feature images, and I included a statement below with a brief background of me,

Glad you enjoyed it! It was a lot of fun figuring out how to laser cut chocolate. You can potentially make some pretty cool things with it.

I am using a 50 Watt Chinese laser cutter. You can see the specific model here. And yes, it can cut more serious stuff; I've had this cut up to 1/4 inch birch plywood, which is about the limit that it

Excited to have won this week's woodcutting competition! I'm looking forward to watching this competition grow.

Glad you liked it! The entire frame was laser cut. One of the design challenges that I had to over come when making this was to figure out how to create the body of the lamp using just 3 mm birch plywood.

Glad you liked it! This is the most challenging and (as a result also) the most rewarding project that I have worked on yet.

Ahh gotcha. Yeah, that's unfortunate, shipping is always a hassle. I'm in the same state as them, and it looks like even for me the shipping is almost $200. Hopefully as laser cutting becomes increasingly

Glad you enjoyed it! I try to describe the process in enough detail in the hopes that other people can make these too if they want to.

That's the same problem that I have been running into. One place you may want to keep an eye on is Glowforge. They are a Washington based startup with laser cutters ranging from $4000 for the basic model

I had access to a laser cutter through a Makerspace on my college campus. Unfortunately, I lost access to it at the end of last summer, but I'm hoping to in the near future either get my own, or find another

Haha, you make it sound rough, but it looks like you make some pretty cool things using a chainsaw. Thanks for the follow! I just followed you too.

Here's my first submission to the weekly woodworking competition. This is a laser cut "Constellation" lamp that I designed last summer:

Very cool! The GIF at the end showing the plasma transition in particular is very interesting to watch

I am very impressed by the work you and @skycranehandwork are putting into the woodworking community here on Steemit. Can't wait to see the community keep growing

In this post I detail how to laser cut a Game of Thrones Stark banner

Glad you liked them! Unfortunately, I only have access to a laser cutter through a Makerspace, so I don't have my own to use to make and sell projects like this one. But one day I hope to buy my own, and

Hmm, yeah Thailand actually would be pretty hard to do with that long strip on the bottom. If you would try to do Thailand, your best bet might be to just put the bottle caps on the mainland portion, and

Thanks! It should work perfectly fine with a global map too. The only thing you would need to be careful about, is as you scale up, you may have a tendency to get regions that are too thin to hold bottle
