Acrylic Buildings
This station is shown in process and out in the shop. It is getting the final pieces ready before going to QA. Our buildings are made using acrylic plastic. They are drawn using CorelDraw and then pieces are sent indivually to the Morn Laser Engraver to be cut. Once all the pieces are cut they are glued together as needed before being sent to QA. After QA the project is sent to the paint shop. The paint shop does the painting and final assembly.
Morn MT L-960 Laser Engraver
Laser Engraver
This is a 80 watt Co2 Laser Engraver. The working area is 24 x 36 inches. The work area can be lowered bout 12 inches if needed. An extraction system is used to remove the fumes and smoke to the outside. There is also a chiller cooling system to protect the Co2 tube.
The Laser maker space
I use the 2D CAD program CorelDraw to create all the drawings for the projects. The drawings are then sent to the laser using LightBurn software. This side of the garage is for the laser and electronics. The other side is for wood working. That area is used mostly for the railroad wooden projects. A propane heater is available for the cold days and fans are used for the hot days.
