Did you use the boxgenerator site for the basic box template?
I got a message on another social site about the arcade button midi controller and they pointed me to this project. Just incase anyone else feels like they want to start yet another project.

Made with the VHS laser cutter, This is a the Untztrument trellis midi kit from Adafruit that I picked up during @miststlkr group buy. I still need to put a brain in it and wire up the LEDS but it looks and feels pretty awesome. This is another midi controller like the arcade button one from day 3. I will be using it to control the lighting effects on the dome wirelessly. This controllers is for me while the arcade button one is for everyone else. #laser #lasercutter #acrylic #buttons #arduino

First one in a series of monsters that I scanned and copied from a monster picture book. Cut on the VHS laser cutter out of acrylic. I did not design this, I copied and converted this from a scan of a dead tree book into a vector using the method I used in the stencil workshop.

First attempts at the Fairy doors for the upcoming Fairy door workshop at VHS. I kind of like the round hobbit door but the other two are rejects. I am hoping to have about 5 different door designs for people to choose from. Back to the drawing board.

This is a test cut for one of the panels of the pocket universe dome. I like this one and it seem to hold together well. #laser #lasercutter #wood #sculpture #geometry These panels will be cut 6 feet tall on the Shopbot at Maker labs. I am doing test cut on VHS’s laser first to find the ones I like.

This is another test cut of the panels of the pocket universe dome. I like this one too and I am excited to see what this one will look like full size.

These are some rejected designs for the pocket universe dome. The one of the left is too flimsy. The top and right one are boring. The bottom one is interesting but just didn’t make the cut.

Shadow puppet picture frame test. I like the way this turned out. I am planning on making more complex ones when I have more time.

This is a test of different polyhedron shapes. I’m planning on making twelve different shapes. Then cutting patterns into the faces of these shapes and adding LEDs to make lanterns. (similar to the panels for the dome project above). Then hang them all like a chandler or mobile. Eventually these will be made out of laser cut wood.
This shape is a trapezohedron

This is a test cut of a panel for the pocket universe project. Each hole is the size of a arcade button. I like it but I want change half of them to LEDs so when you press a button it changes a color of LED on the same panel. Still thinking about this.

A test cut panel for the pocket universe project. I like this one but I expect it to be to complex for the shotbot. I will have to redesign this one.

A failed test cut panel for the pocket universe project. This one is too flimsily to work. Rejected.
Day 19

A failed design for the pocket universe project. I was trying to see if a maze would work for one of the panels. The problem is that the maze paths are only connected to the size at one point. It becomes to flimsy and would probably break.
