Quick & Easy Topographic / Contour Vector Maps For Laser Cutting | How to | Tutorial

[@2009chuito]

Great video. What type of wood cutting laser do you recommend for a father and son project just like the one you did? Thank you.

[@RichardBCumbrianModelRailways]

this is awesome, I want to make my own prizes for a series of events I run, this is perfect for that personal touch!

[@viruxx]

Dude! This is gold! Thank you very much!

[@andreabocci3285]

Thanks so much! This is great! So much less painful than what I was doing!

[@carolinaherrera4546]

this was PERFECT! thanks so much!

[@the_daydreamingtom]

This is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you!😉

[@stfncreatormodeon]

aweseome video, helped me a lot for my graphic design project, thanks!!!

[@jpertel1964]

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

[@lomeranger]

That’s fantastic! Do you have a site that would include bathymetric lines?

[@nickmankinen1127]

Great video ! very helpful! could you suggest a site like this for doing Bathymetry contours for inland lakes? thanks in advance

[@tarascott8691]

did you ever find a bathymetry contour site?

[@nickmankinen1127]

@@tarascott8691 no I havnt… do you have any suggestions?

[@martyhogan]

What computer program are you starting with?

[@Wolfpt4]

What do you use to clean up the burn marks?

[@danielss77939]

That's really great, but, for some reason, roads and labels are not appearing for me... The option is selected, but no luck. I'm struggling to find a specific location without these.

[@Keep-Making]

Hey Daniel, It can be a little tricky to see things on the map. I have not really worked with roads and so on. This is also starting to show it's age a bit. I wish I was able to help you out more. If you are willing to learn new programs there is an addone for blender called BlenderGIS: whish is pretty powerful. I might make a video about it at some point.

[@grootjnr]

I have the same issue. Seems on my PC the names and roads don't show but on phone or tablet they do lol weird

[@sitgesvillaapartmentneilsc7924]

If you cut out each contour you can actually build a nice topographic map for real!! Same can be do e for underwater lakes but its more difficult to get the data....

[@davidegaita674]

Thank you! You're a legend!

[@jf6720]

Why doesn't this show water depth? I don't like that it leaves the water blank, do you know of anything like this for lake depths?

[@thibaultheylen7512]

@MakerTales How do you so easily remove the lines outside of the circle? have been breaking my head on this for 2 days now. Still can't find it.

[@rosskellogg8633]

Draw a selection box with the direct select tool (the White arrow) press delete and everything in the selection will be deleted.

[@fibranijevidra]

Very good. Thank you.

[@Keep-Making]

Your very welcome!

[@grootjnr]

The website doesn't show place names on the maps for me? Tried everything lol cannot get the place names so it makes finding places SO hard. Any suggestions? Thank you

[@cjb8659]

Me too it sucks!!!

[@jenniferjustice6951]

oh my god- thank you! so helpful!

[@udaymohan264]

Awesome work

[@Keep-Making]

Thanks a lot 😊

[@baburambhatta991]

I need to develop a 3d vector map (2000mm X 1000mm) of a large geographical area to be carved by cnc in mdf board. could you please help me for design?

[@LiveTheMastersWay]

2 hours can be rounded to minutes

[@A3Kr0n]

Can you do something like a Boolean intersection of the map with the circle to cut the map perfectly to the circle?

[@Keep-Making]

If I was in a 3d program like blender... Yes... I would be able to do a simple boolean to do that.

[@salahadin1051]

the website isn't working

[@chrisharvey7461]

website is broken

[@chrisharvey7461]

that site is pure hell

[@slahsamet8722]

Very good .. but I can find my country (Tunisia) with this site .. realy strange :/

[@Keep-Making]

I don't know why you can't find it but I do... contours.axismaps.com/#11/33.9750/9.5663 this is Ben Ghilouf

[@tradesmith_yt]

You could have just selected the peak circle and enlarged as well

[@chrisharvey7461]

its great but a frustrating site
