today:  last day to work on 3d printing – next up is laser cutting and engraving.

First 15 minutes:

1. finish and send me your keychain and/or ring 3d prints.

Cutting – cuts through material
Engraves – burns the design in the material

  1. Open Inkscape on your computer
  2. using Google Advanced Image Search – filetype: PNG – search for an image you want to laser cut.  Line drawings and silhouettes work well.  Photos do not engrave well at all.

Laser Cutting Checklist

Note: all laser cutter submissions will not be emailed to:

drakelasercutter@gmail.com

Save as a PDF and attach your file.  If it’s not a PDF I can’t laser cut your design.  Put your first and last name in the subject line.

First laser cut together: laser cut bag tag/keychain

AFTER you have sent me your bagtag file then begin your Laser Cut Puzzle design.  You will work watch my video tutorial while working on this project.
