My last map was a commission, and they absolutely loved it. I decided to create another, and this will be donated to a fundraiser for a YMCA Summer Camp in Northern Wisconsin. I’ve done iterations of this lake before, but added more lake levels and the illuminated LED standoffs. This time I tried white LED’s versus blue.
I also created an Instructable if anyone wants to see more pictures of the build process.
Another beautiful work of art!
Where do you find your maps? I want to do one for my father-in-law. He has a home on Table Rock Lake near Branson Missouri and can’t find a suitable file.
Google search for Wisconsin DNR fishing maps, and then trace the lake levels by hand in illustrator.
Most of our lakes are Army Corp of Engineer lakes around here. Thank you I’ll see if our DNR or MDC has anything.
BTW- I really like the maps you do.
I wish that you could pull bathymetric data like you can with topographic data, but haven’t found a free way to do it automagically.
Wow, another amazing lake map… you make me feel like a toddler playing with tool I have no idea how to use…
I feel so inadequate looking at all your amazing creations! It just pushes me to want to learn more!
You really do extraordinary work!!
Well my fellow Missourian we have a task to complete
My parents live just outside Bennett Spring State Park, so it would be cool to make a map of the area like this!
I will have to look into that.
I may have told you already, but the park ranger there has one of our dogs.
I’m having senior moments more often 
@ovm.steve, yes, I think you mentioned that before! 
@pubultrastar, you make me want to do so much more! Excellent job; you amaze me.
Thank you! Glowforge is fun!
I think the first one used a blue acrylic, right? Edit: Never mind, it was the colored LED.
This one looks clear, with maybe some red around the posts? That is so strange, how did you do that?!?
amazing!
The red is just the light through the birch plywood. Not sure why it’s red, but the lights are really bright, enough to penetrate the plywood.
Another outstanding creation! So many layers…
You truly are an artist. Your instructable was beyond amazing.
Absolutely!!! I,just voted for you.
Voted!! (Yes, it was for you!)
