Christmas Ornaments

A project log for MultiBot CNC v2

A low cost 3D printed CNC that can be built with minimal tools yet is capable of great things.

My wife is a school teacher and among other things she runs a sign language club for 3rd graders.

They have a Christmas concert coming up and she wanted to give her students a present.  So we came up with the idea of laser cutting these I Love You ornaments.

I was able to cut 20 on a 12" square piece of 3 mm plywood.  It took about 2 hours to cut them at 160 mm/min and 80% power on my NEJE A40640 laser module.

The design came from a picture we found online so I'm not going to give away the vector file. I spent 15 minutes in inkscape outlining the image, a fairly simple job once you work out the kinks.
