In this episode I share a Christmas project: a custom house plaque of a family member's house, drawn using images from Google Maps. I created a composite image in Photoshop to fill in areas hidden by trees, then scaled the image in Illustrator. I drew over the image and split the drawing into multiple layers, to be cut on different layers of wood.
After the layers were cut on my OMTech laser cutter, I painted them using techniques I've learned from miniature painting, and glued the layers together. I attached a hanger and silicon bumpers to make the picture easy to hang.
