Paper is a fun medium to work in. It’s cheap, comes in a variety of bold colors and textures, and it cuts quickly on the laser. I’ve always loved Ansel Adam’s Oak Tree, but hadn’t been able to find a suitable image of it. For this one, we went through the photo collection looking for a dramatic image that would convert well to a silhouette.

Laser Cut Case for Nixie Clock
Nixies are a wonderful bit of retro technology. Inside the glass tubes, 10 anodes ( 0-9 ) are encased in a wire mesh. When powered, each number glows independently of one another. Practical? In their day. Now they just look cool.
Laser Cut Lamp
One of our first serious projects, we produced these lamps as Christmas gifts for our friends and families. We cut them from a variety of woods, including Cedar, African Padauk and Walnut. It was our first project using hardwoods and it was definitely a learning experience.
