You can make these in any size, I had a friend make one in order to make a windscreen for a recumbent bicycle. It was about the size of a door!

I was looking for just this sort of thing today. The cheapest are $150 but decent they are around 1k as is that bracelet. Unfortunately, my wrists are also very messed up so I could not wear it anyway

It’s fiddly. I haven’t used it enough to get good at it, so it’s hit or miss depending on whether I let the plastic pre-melt long enough. Everything is manual (no timers). You have to make sure there are no concave areas that can trap the melted plastic. So the model you are duplicating has to have an appropriate shape. But it can be fun. I think I made some monogrammed soap molds that came out pretty good.

A weird and kinda fun interactive fuzzy ball toy.
Not all that long ago rendering hair at this level was very difficult, interesting.

Almost as fascinating as playing with the real thing!

I was just thinking that! I have one of those fun little balls - I just like tossing it back and forth in my hands because it feels fun.

My daughter’s pet moss ball died after a month. She might have been to young to care for it.

This is a guy who makes ship models for various games. The body of the ship was 3d printed earlier. He explains the paint sequence, choice of colors, techniques, etc. Fun to watch.

I saw this video on YouTube today for the new Carvara Air CNC.
Here is the KickStarter page for anybody intested (I get nothing out of this - I just thought it looked cool and would interest this crowd).

I was just talking with a coworker about this. It seems like a lot of money, but then we realized the original Carvara CNC was $4000. Then $1500 sound like a deal.

Yoiks! I have been thinking if something more Glowforge friendly to do. If you has some 1/4" wood you could engrave a design 1/8ish deep, and some 1/8" to cut the same design (made so all the 1/8" was connected and the 1/4" all the floating parts) the design would be very different but something only a Laser woukld be accurate enough to do.
I left this at different heights because I liked it that way but it could be smooth…
