While I waited for my new machine I have been designing soooooo many things. I am proud that this is the first design and cut project. I am obsessed with this iridescent acrylic.
Here’s to the first of many many more projects!
Welcome to the forum. You arrived with a bang. Nice project!

Welcome! Keep those creative juices flowing and be sure to share!
Welcome! Love the logo.
Very nice! i agree- there are a ton of gorgeous acrylics out there. I got a really nice package of mixed translucents on EBay that had many types I’d never tried and discovered some new favorites.
Welcome to the Forum
You might want to do a search around here for various issues and opinions regarding Acrylics and acrylic-like plastic as some work better than others.
I had sone very bad results with some that was heavily mixed with mica flakes that as you might imagine made it tough for the laser to cut through. Also, keep a sharp eye out for even the possibility of vinyl or PVC as the fumes of even one cut can eventually destroy your machine. There is also cast (good) and extruded (not so good) and polycarbonate (not good at all) sheets that all look the same but are very different in a Glowforge.
This is fantastic advice. Thank you!
The logo is stinkin’ cute, and the irrid is eye poppingly gorgeous! I love how clean the design is. I think you will appreciate this YouTube video, if you missed it earlier: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zc4cULawqXU
It goes into how to make your own irrid acrylic
Way cool! Well made.
Where to go from here. Up of course.
Looking forward to seeing more of your work.
That Frenchie design is so damn cute!
This is awesome!!! Thank you for this.
