Hi everyone!! , all of you guys here at the forums have been very helpful and everyone here has shared there ideas and helped all of us expand our work, i have never posted any of my work but today i would like to share with all of you one of many pieces i created, thoughts and comments are always welcome!! thanks! :)
This were made out of a mdf type of board but much finer and looks better as well (sorry i forgot the name of this type of board) i got it at a local wood supplier here in L.A., thickness is 1/4, the sheet of 3'X6' was around $30, after much tests and trials i had the right power and speed to cut the board nicely, so now that i had done my trials with the board i started on the design, design took me a while to finish because i changed it a couple of times till i decided on this one,box design was made with a software that someone here in the forums recommended and it was free and easy to use!!, total time for laser cutting the hole thing was around 20-30 min., after cutting i cleaned them up and glue them together with wood glue except one side witch was going to be use to open and insert a LED candle inside (don't use real candles!!!), i left this in the natural wood color but you can stain or paint them, i had so many people going crazy for them and more due to the LED candles! they look very nice, i have them in my home and have done some for some restaurants, businesses and peoples homes, they are easy to do the hardest part is the design, i made this around a year ago, enjoy!!:)
