FabPlay at Hawken this past week was a great time. Building and sharing. I played a bit more with the Epilog laser (I have used the one at the Akron Public Library, but really only 1 setting 36 times ; used Dremel a week ago at ChattFab). First I made a "light box", which is a rectangular prism with designs cut out of the sides. Then you put light(s) inside the box. I actually made 2, one generic and one holiday themed.
The video below is how i did it.
Then I decided to cut out a Snoopy shape and learned a little bit about "color mapping".
You "draw" lines by "cutting" them as vectors instead of raster etching them (it saves time). You set them to a certain color hairline, then tell the software "any vector of this color, use these settings". Video talking about how is below.
