Looking around on the interwebs I've seen some interesting structures that I'd like to have. With access to a laser cutter and having a bit of scrap mdf and Polybak lying around I thought I'd give an engine shed a go. I played around with SketchUp to imagine what it would look like in 3D and then Adobe Illustrator to draw up the files for the laser. Here's what I came up with. Here are the SketchUp drawings. And here is the file I drew up in Illustrator. The red lines will be cut by the laser and the black lines will be engraved. And here are the laser cut prototypes. This is the third iteration. I had to make the frames and posts thicker as it was a bit too delicate as drawn in SketchUp. I always have a pile of cast offs when going through a process like this. I may still make these a bit thinner though. Cheers eh, Todd
