*image heavy* A real use for a 40W laser

[SMIDSY]

I did post this back in the day but this is a MKII anyway.

This was done totally using a computer controlled 40W IR laser cutter which gives a perfect finish to every material I ever cut.

This is my Jolly Rodger clock- he dominates my bedroom wall and keeps good time too!
Specs:
Dimensions: Flag: 75X50cm, Head: 17X25cm (so its big!)
7X Superbright LEDs with LDR control.
Quartz Japanese movement.
6 layers of acrylic.


Enjoy:

with hat:

at night :-D

night 2:

Damn that looks good!!! Glad you came back to LPF. Makes a great avatar too. How about a bluray beam coming out of each eye whenever the clock strikes the hour at night?

now that I like! Im glad to be back- thank you!
Its a nice avatar and I really like how it looks on the wall.

We see too many laser builds and not enough 'things built by lasers'

also re your sig- we all could do with more lasers!

Ah nice project,

Nice avatar as well, although the small red camera font was bothering me so I did a quick bit of photoshoping and removed it for you

Hope you don't mind, but for some reason it seems slightly more purple? Meh.
