Been playing around with a little cnc mill I got for Christmas. I think these came out cute!
I love this so much more after staring at it for 10 seconds than I ever thought I would at the outset

Another one I did
Where do you get the nightlight? Does it come with the acrylic? I'd love to do some laser etched acrylic like this
I found them at the dollar store(Dollarama if you have them) , they come blank like this and I just clamp them in and carve. I have an unopened one laying around here's a pic
Can you take the base off for carving? That's really interesting how well suited that looks for templating
I think you'd probably be able to, there's a few screws on the back. I haven't tried since they fit on my machine with the plug in overhanging the side. And I know right? When I saw them i knew what I had to do haha
Also if you do post it, I'd love to see it!
Very cool!
Whats the mill?
A vevor s3020, just a little table top cnc. Been a fun dip into the world of cnc milling, still lots to learn!
I'm guessing the light is plastic? Would the mill have worked on glass?
Yep the light is acrylic I beleive. You can use this for glass but you have to be super careful that you have it dialed in well or you'll break it. I've actually been working up the courage to try it haha. I'll definitely post once I'd do!
I had no idea this existed. Dammit, another toy I really didn't need to add to my list!
