This is my latest project a small working carousel about the size of a cake. The project was similar to my prior carousel that we donated to the local children’s hospital. The entire project was made on my glowforge pro except for the electronics, and dowels. The carousel involved approximately 20 cuts on the glowfroge with about 300-400 separate pieces. The carousel was made with 1/8" Masonite from home depot. I also used my new UV printer to print on the exposed pieces as wall as hand painted trim. The motor was a 250 rpm 12 v motor and it also has a rechargeable 12v battery that can be taken out for charging. All decorations are based around a State of Colorado theme. The re-design of the larger carousel that i previously made took approx 2 months. A really fun project!

That’s fabulous! My grandfather build a carousel that was about the size of your prior one - by hand. I just imagine how much fun he could have had with a laser
