Build Miniatures with a Laser

Hi guys! I hope you're all well! We're in the middle of a huge move to NYC so I don't currently have a studio to work in. However, I was able to work in my garage with this new laser engraver and make some fun projects! I hope you enjoy my learning process with this new fun machine!

You’ve come full circle and you’ve continued to innovate with materials, techniques and tools. So glad you have this channel. Always great content.

[@deannabarnes3771]

I'm in awe of your talents, love the houses you cut, imagine those two you held up as earrings, lol. And the cutest toddler foot on the table.....

[@tristamyers1910]

Love the maps!! What a cool idea for a coffee table!! I also love GOT so this was right up my alley. Have a safe move!

[@stigyanblue1442]

Laser go PEEEEEEEEW!!

[@anonthe-third2367]

That map of middle earth engraving looks so good! I'd kill to have that on my wall.

[@missimperfectlyfine7]

so excited for this!

[@theworld2me]

Need a miniature of the table in the dollhouse she wants to make. So cool.

[@mikael.diy.]

I can't wait for your next upload tbh. I really enjoy your videos customizing the miniature kit. I cant wait what project you will do with this laser

[@2CraftySeniors]

Wow. That laser machine is fantastic. My hubby would have so much fun with it.

[@danielquiros8244]

Thank you very much for this video, I was looking for videos of the Ortur Laser cutting through wood, but everyone jut made reviews and talks about how it engraves. Thank you

[@paintandplayminis328]

I am starting a channel for making mini terrain and house settings but in a zombie apocalypse setting. These tutorials have been so helpful!

[@nitenefew129]

You've made human-sized doll furniture!!

[@CranberryCake]

That looks like a HUGE lifesaver!!

[@dawnshuburte949]

I love your videos so much! Thank you for sharing

[@Kikithesaltywitch]

This is so cool & fun 🙂

[@yolyyoly7077]

I have the Glowforge but I can’t wait to see what you do with the laser.

[@mikusia148]

WoW it's look amazing! Nice to watch, when you make a progress and try new techniques 😊. Have a nice day 😁!

[@bertfarry3793]

On that table you could add a 2 part epoxy over the top

[@fubarmodelyard1392]

Pretty cool table

[@mosiotv]

Super cute Cath! 😁 👍

[@7spiritualcompass706]

AWESOME!

[@hollymoffatt1457]

i am so jealous, i used to work with lasers at the shop i work for and i miss it so much. i am so getting one of these.

[@xankru5270]

Than you for this. Going to try out your method.

[@sarahwrites5415]

[@brittanylawless680]

[@kaivalyasane2664]

Hi mat I love your all miniature things specially the bed

[@jennglow4647]

Very cool😃

[@santolify]

Nice!

[@LuisPa247]

I like it.

[@betulilim7387]

Nice👏👏

[@creativedollhouseld3138]

Hello, I haven’t seen any recent videos I don’t mind watching them over there all so well done I was curious to know what do you do with the miniature dollhouses that you build, Do you have a spot we’re you store them all or do you sell them?

[@amandasiewert5286]

Can you make a tutorial on mailboxes? I am just starting out and love doing Christmas scenes and I would love some help with mailboxes. All the different kinds! The ones on a post, the square ones on houses, and the rounded post office ones on the street! Thank you for making these videos! Best I’ve found on KZbin for miniatures! Hope your move went well!

[@recoveringsoul755]

Many years ago I was at the post office and they were selling a little blue mailbox like they used to have a couple of blocks from my home. I bought one because it looked about the right size for maybe a Barbie or smaller. I don't have access to it right now to measure, and I know that doesn't answer your question

[@sashypooh409]

Absolutely gorgeous 🥰. I don't know about keeping a ouija board in my home though🤣

[@andrewbowenssylvanianfamilies]

You could make a risk game with that map. It looks cool.

[@patriciadumatrait9594]

WOW 😲

[@elizaely6096]

Yessss

[@gauravkashyap7878]

Nice

[@Hall_Meli]

Wow. I was expecting the laser to be a lot more expensive than it was. That's dangerous (too accessible! Ah, my wallet!!) Still, part of why I love (and often recommend your channel) was your creativity in the face of not having all the fancy tools. While I'm happy you can afford fancier things, I still miss the days when you'd do things by hand with cheaper materials. Will you still do a few of those videos in the future as well? I'll still watch regardless, just a bit nostalgic for those videos

[@fransantelli]

after literaqlly spending thousands of hours cutting things with an exacto knife or other vrey low tech tools, i am in the market for a laser cutter! i am excited, but yes, i will always keep that hands on approach incorporated in my work. as we all should!

[@rovert7566]

Honestly u deserve more subs than other yoitibers bcs linstead of wasting stuff u bring it to use and make amazing mini things and u rrally deserve ur subs ur an amazing yt

[@SuryaAmar]

Wow superb my friends Stay connected

[@JustCallMeMeghan]

Stahp! My wallet can't take it anymore! 😂🤦🏻‍♀️

[@jalleahreyes6797]

I want one 😱

[@annzel7557]

Hi, do you have the website or non video written tutorials with all the measures and supplies used? Its so hard to nonstop watch the video and then find right supplies because i wanna buy things from my local store. Thanks.

[@elizabethworley7073]

Hi. I just got a laser cutter too. Can you please share your settings for those woods and their thickness? I'm struggling to learn settings and it would be really helpful if you shared yours since you are so successful. Thanks.

[@scottblevins4298]

Need some of those guitar parts in 1:25 scale...do you have a sales page anywhere ?

[@sxge3794]

Nice! I have an Idea, After you move, Can you post a tutorial on how to make a school desk?

[@jotaroslegs2345]

Your video is great, BUT WHY ARE YOU MOVING TO NYC?

[@fransantelli]

wow... i was about to buy a laser cutter that is wayyy more expensive than this one, but this one seems like it would be perfect. it's a little tricky going by reviews since so few of the people there seem to be using their laser cutters for making miniatures. and everybody is talking about engraving and hardly anyone talks about the cutting! how has your laser cutter held up?

[@TheSquaretoSpare]

Glad I could help! This one still works great. I did start to use another laser with more protection around the beam just to be in the safe side but this is still a great option

[@curtisnewton895]

you really like guitars and stratocasters

[@1hellokittymeow]

Hi Cath, one of this links says the laser is $185, one says $328 which one should we get, also do we buy the program?

[@csq530]

Hi can you make a video or point me out to the smallest detail or letter that the printer can engrave? Thanks!

[@queencityminis]

I bought this laser but I can't find any instructions in English. Can anyone share a link? Thanks

[@TheFeldhamster]

Nice. How do you get rid of the "burnt" stink, though? We have a maker space near where I live and I could use a laser cutter there but so far I didn't like how the wooden pieces always stink like severely burnt wood. And it doesn't seem to vanish even after several days. They showed us pieces that had been previously made (like a while ago) and they still stank. It's such a cool technique but I really don't like the stink.

[@ernieproductions7354]

hello, just a suggestion, 1:6 scale trenchcoat tutorial?

[@pranavghag4709]

Is it safe to do laser cutting at home ?

[@LT72884]

what were your cut settings for 3mm?

[@user-nk5ss4od8s]

Sister can you make miniature cooking set that cat put in flame🔥

[@N013GS]

How do you add the edge to the instruments? Since there rounded off.

[@N013GS]

Also your amazing!!!

[@Peaceseeker917]

Do you do custom work for small projects? I'd like to use your services if possible.

[@shannonwilhelm5031]

The music makes it hard to hear you.

[@pennypontillo5017]

What settings to cut?

[@DoubleNickelFilmsLtd]

You could also do improvements for the Colt Python from your previous video. I could use this for making weapons and musical Instruments and other things for my Stop-Motion movies.

[@kttnlvr2bynxylee622]

Do you happen to know what the cost of the laser is?

[@adamprice7150]

How much is light burn ??

[@spinafire]

How thick of a material can this machine cut (e.g. can it handle 3mm)? I didn't realize these laser engravers could cut thin wood materials.

[@neenachurchill8038]

At 1:51 she says it can cut through 3mm thick wood.

[@pauln2661]

This is a lightweight 20 watt laser. The far, far, far more expensive 100w (and higher) cut 1/8 inch (3mm) easily for higher speeds and half inch (13mm) too. 100w lasers engrave metal, marble, and tile too.

[@aereous7029]

Why am i tempted to put my hands under the laser

[@caronteundici]

ciao se compro sul link c è da pagare la dogana ? io sono in italia grazie

[@deniserenesanchez]

Is this Laser expensive?

[@kttnlvr2bynxylee622]

Good question, I was wondering the same thing.

[@aerial_silks_hoop]

It's $318.99. I spent more than that on my Cricut Maker. I wish I had purchased this laser engraver instead. The Cricut mats don't stay sticky long enough and replacing them is adding up. I didn't know it was so easy to use an engraver.

[@kttnlvr2bynxylee622]

Wow that's not bad at all, I was thinking 5 to 6 hundred dollars! Thank You!!

[@deniserenesanchez]

That’s a good price

[@aerial_silks_hoop]

That is a good price but there's another laser engraver from the same company for $100 less. Wonder if that one is worth buying. I can't immediately tell the difference. The minimum cutting depth I'd want would probably be 3mm like the one shown in the video.

[@azlee56]

Where is your instagram?

[@yearzeroxx]

nice work but my opinion is you need better way for painting

[@expectopatronum1356]

Can yo do a miniature hogwarts castle

[@filipematias5127]
