Building an impressive 80s-inspired boom box involved challenges like a laser mishap, but the end result was a showstopper for the school art show. The meticulous design, use of tools like Cricut Maker, and integration of audio and visual elements created a stunning masterpiece.
I'm passionate about art and design, and dream of creating & selling pro-grade products. Currently, I'm focused on designing a stylish boot. Using Illustrator, laser engraver, and cardboard, I created an SVG file for purchase and custom commissions on my website. I'm inspired to help my students unleash their creativity and have more designs in the works.
I created a bright-looking wall plaque for my colleague's two dogs using a diode laser to cut and hand-painting the cutouts. The magnificent piece delighted my colleague's wife, and I plan to offer this service on my website. I built a special laser engraver enclosure to handle the debris created during the process.
An extractor takes the smoke and dust that the laser engraver makes and throws it away. Protecting the operator and the machine from potential harm requires regular use of an extractor. Fume extractors come in a variety of forms, each with its own set of pros and cons. When deciding on the right fume extractor, you should think about the dimensions of your work area, the type of materials you'll be engraving.
Andrew stood back and admired the machine he had spent the past four years building in his workshop. As he walked around it, taking in every intricate detail, he couldn't help but feel a sense of pride and accomplishment. But as he turned to put away his tools, he realized that it was his birthday and he couldn't help but reflect on all the goals he had achieved in his lifetime so far.
Andrew, a former craftsman, turned to rocket propulsion and colonization after a failed mission to Mars. He experimented with the propulsive power of corn kernels and accidentally discovered their potential as a renewable fuel source. He subsequently designed and built the Prometheus, a jet engine powered by corn, with the goal of traveling to and colonizing a new world.
