1. Introduction: To be creative and to combine these creative knowledge into a physical form using modern technology is three amazing study has. And to make it into a business that's awesome. To start something awesome, you need knowledge, encourage. Hi friends. I add the shadow folder of Jacob and visit technology and backing by. Welcome to my class, very newly gained a lot of practical knowledge. And you will learn how to make creative and innovative products using this modern technology starting from scratch to the finished output. Yes, in this class, we will make products using this laser cutting machines, which are one of the most common computer-based technology available. You are going to learn in depth about how we do it tactically. All getting really simple step-by-step process. And the best part is this class is beginner friendly. You are willing to give benefit about my long years of experience and expertise into this subject without getting into all that private and that I had it long way. This class would be worth today as we'll be using a lot of different materials, like acrylic for creating main page and teenagers. Mbs for making creative products. Fabrics, for making fashionable outfits, for creating reading cards, for making bags, shoes, and Jack. Firm sheets for industrial products, cardboard, creative fun products. And this class is for students who obeys artists and designers, graphic designers, freelancers, and side hustlers. As all the majority of them, are looking for a platform wherein they could learn it and convert that into a physical form. I believe we need more deeply into this world. We need more leadership and creators following their dreams. All the domain classes, we will make a lot of create new physical, it's scalable. That's from something which isn't a pain. Excited to dive in. Before we do that, I would really appreciate if you can follow me on Skillshare by clicking on this green, followed by two on the top. This means you'll get updates as I launched my next classes. So let's explore. Hi friends. Just to give you an overview of the class. Each plus Vb learning something new and exciting. More importantly, how we do it in a very professional way. We'll be putting a hands-on to the sequence of the class. Would it be like first, we will create designs in Poland or Adobe Illustrator. Second, we would send the same design on the laser cutting machine compatible softwares like laser probe ID works. Here. For this class, we'll be using a cutting machine, which has a software or less IV works. Mid software comes along with the machine and are very easy to operate. Next, for the coming session, we will concentrate how exactly we do it in a professional manner. We'll be practically doing it from scratch. We'll be taking up playing raw materials into finished products. Each and every day. That entire process from input, process and output could be explained to you. I would try to make it in a very simplified and easy manner. So why is ready to stretch your imagination with the help of this modern technology? Let's explore. 2. Whats's Modern Laser Cut Technology: Hi friends. In this session, we will learn about what do you exactly mean by the 17 technology as how does the laser cutting machine work in a very simplified manner. Lisa can name is a technology that uses a laser beam to vaporize material. Very high voltage of laser beam being passed onto the selfish. It's a very similar concept wherein we have sun and the magnifying glass. When a magnifying glasses or a piece of paper, distance equal to its focal length, which allows sun radiation to concentrate on that focal point and create a very high pressure beam so that it actually starts burning and vaporizes the Binet surface. Materials. Similar is a laser cutting concept wherein we have sun. That is a laser tube that has an concentrated gas with generator, very high voltage power in the form of laser beam. We have a magnifying glass, which is called as Leonce. Normally it's very small in size, say around 50 MM, which is attached to nozzle. Nozzle with the help of a mirror. And lens, reflects the laser beam into a very high voltage laser beam, which vaporizes material and precisely cuts them. Then we have to connect a computer to the laser cutting machine through USB cord. Whereas it has an inbuilt software, which gives us control all the speed and power to be given to the machine. Here, depending upon the material we'll be using. It'd be hard or soft. We adjust speeds and power accordingly. Thus, there are different materials we can play with, like people would actually lead, and many more. So depending upon the thickness of the material, will determine the squid n power. That is to be instructed to the machine. Digging an example of paper, the speed. For paper, the speed would be very high and the power would be low. Vis-a-vis. For acrylic, the speed would be slow and the power would be high. I'm not going to go very deep into this as we will be using this machine and the software in the coming classes. There are two major rules of laser cutting machine. Cutting, engraving. That thing is you can cut anything through and through. It actually is very precise. And even the minute details can be achieved through this laser beam giving us in very professional results or outcome. Second one is engraving. We also call it itching, where we swipe away a top layers of material without cutting it. As you can see in this example. 3. Let's Create SkillShare Cake Topper: Hi friends. Welcome to this session where we will learn how to make a cake topper using this computerized technology. Have a very huge market. Be any occasion on festivals like Christmas, Thanksgiving, wedding, anniversaries, birthdays and more. This gives us an opportunity to make and sell it, get offers. They add a touch of aliens and gives us that fun bobby pin. Also, it can be customized. In this session, we will make a cake topper using Skillshare logo. Yes, you heard right? Reward, stretch our imaginations and creativity to the possible extent we can bring it to reality. The theme of this cake topper is very unique. Yes. Here we have knowledge and practical approach. What we were looking for wasn't platform, where we could combine these two. This is now possible because of Skillshare platform, wherein knowledge meet practicality. So let's make cake topper with Skillshare team. This is just saying good gesture. Tag, Skillshare for giving us the opportunity where you and me can get connected and learn things tactically. In this session, we will use some acrylic sheets. One is the base of cake topper, which will be a black, ugly. Second would be the white acrylic sheet for this future. Thought you'd want to use green for this feature logo. So let's get started. He would dismantle the design into three parts. First being the black base design. Second being the white color Skillshare logo. And the third would be the green colored dots on the logo. If you see this cake topper, holistically, we will be pasting a worldwide Skillshare logo on the top of the black material. But for doing this accurately, we need to have a proper racing on the black material, right? So we would divide our process into four parts now. First being this black base design. Second being marking. All tracing on this design is to make a Skillshare logo on white material. And four would be this green dots on hello logo. So now let's focus on the main base black design. Using a laser cutter. Design in the laser machine software would look like this. If we zoom into this design, we can understand how detailed and deep is the design. Best part is we would get the same detailed output, wonder material each and every time by using this technology. Now let's understand it practically on this black. Let's get started. So now let's understand what is marketing and how to do it on the machine, on the same file without moving the base black material on the machine. We would adjust the color of our logo on the software and reduced the power of the laser beam so that it does not penetrate through the material and gives us that policing effect. Let see it practically. So friends, this is the final result. Reading. We see the entire base design it's got, whereas Skillshare logo is just having a tracing effected. Now it's your turn to create Skillshare logo. Skillshare logo on this white acrylic sheet, force applied double-check measuring tape. This backside of the white. Let's get started. Now let's focus on the green dots on our Skillshare logo. We would once again take this double-sided tape and stick it on the backside of this green material. So now we are ready with the rock cake topper. I could feel the quality, the edges, and the sharpness. It's really good. Now we take a neutral letters of Skillshare. Remove this red outer film on the double-sided adhesive tape and paste it one-by-one on this marking area, on the base black topper. Because of the marking, it becomes very easy for us to locate the exact distance between the fonts. Keep in mind, whenever you are using brand logos, Skillshare, or any other brand logo, you have to be very, very careful about the design. The design has to be hundred percent perfect. What I mean is it should be as it is, as it is meant to be. I'm going a bit technical here. While increasing or decreasing the size of the logo depending upon the base object. The logo design, font spacing. I mean, the entire design has to be proportionate and logged so that the original structure of the logo always remains the same. So friends, if you see this cake topper, we're getting that, create a Min pick, a modest effect on the west Skillshare logo. So let us get ready to spice up the gate by adding up this Skillshare kicked off on the gate. And let's rock on the flow. H body guide. You on your body. 4. Discover Stylish Bride Clutch: Hi friends. In this session, we will be making a very classy, right? Acrylic gouache. I'm showing when it comes to style and fashion flats. His other one, which gives you that elegant and classy touch. Brands like Jimmy to make that acrylic clutches using the same process, which we will be doing practically in this session. We will be concentrating mainly on the front part of the class. We will be exploring a possibility of doing that is in the interlocking of fonts. And similarly, on the face of the clutch. By the end of this session, I'll show you the final output of the class. I'm sure you guys would love it. If you want to exclude the possibility of creating it by all, you can do it. If you want to explore this possibility, you can give your own design. Foundation and the principle of the cartel would remain the same. So you wouldn't have our veins to explore, ready to learn something very exciting. Let's dive in and explore. We will now concentrate on the front side of the clutch. We would break the design into three parts. First, white color material, which is a base off the clutch. Second is a golden glitter material with the right font. Card is red material in shape of their design on this laser cutting machine software looks like this. First, we would give different color code to this design. So we know the sequence of cutting the material. Alter accordingly. We can adjust the speed and power to be given to the machine. For this project, we'll be using three days of acrylic sheet. Is a white acrylic sheet. Second will be this giga acrylic sheet. For the heart will be using acrylic sheet. Now let's concentrate on the bass part of this clutch. So grains, this is a white my golf ball, a green sheet. The face of the latch will be collecting the letters on this regularly to get stuck in. Now let's concentrate on the glitter, bright fond of letters. In this sheet, let's explore. Now let's bump up the heart by using this red color material. So we'll cut the heart on this acrylics you, Let's get started. Now we have failures of machine cut material with us. This white being the base. We would interlock this golden glitter font on this base. It would fit precisely. Now, I want to get a bit technical. What we have done is we have increased the font size a bit from what it was before. In technically, we say it. We have done a countered the file with a very small margin of around 0.05 MM. We have tried to navigate the thickness of the laser beam. My doing this increase in the size, so it fits the right on the base, as it does. Likewise, we will be pasting all the fonts onto this. You can see it fits the right way. As we wanted. Alter the heart would fit in properly on the base. This is the final output. So guys, As promised, this is the final output. Maybe in the coming classes, I will try and show you how to make acrylic box. So then you can directly paste this brand and design on the box and it becomes a clutch. After seeing this, I can reuse it. I think I should get married again. Of course will be the same, right? Enjoy. 5. Creating Flamingo Necklace: Hi friends.

Second is a white color wings. And Todd is a pink color wings along with the face design of Flamingo. This Nicholas's reusing materials. Why is my acrylic? Second will be a white acrylic. And we'll be on black acrylic. So this would be our design which has three layers. Let's understand it in a liberal way. Let's concentrate on the pink color material and get it laser-cut. Guys, Are we ready to use rings? Do this? Is by using this sheet. Let's get started. Now. Let shape up the white color wings. Now let's fire up the black color wings. So now we have this tree rings which are machine cut and size to perfection. We would take this adhesive called chloroform and paste these wings on top of each other. Likewise, we have pasted layers of this three sheets on the top of each other. I'm really getting excited by looking at the output. And trust me, friends, it's looking amazing. Now we're ready to go to the next level that is joining them. This is the chain, the ring of say, ten mm diameter. Are you a lady blocker to help us to connect this to the black color wings. If you see it in a focused way. On the side of all the black wings. That design has two attachment on the top and at the base. Sure. With the help of this Blucher, we would actually connect them.

Personally is gifts, decorative items, shadow boxes, bindings, and one uses the same technology. Will you be learning it? In this session? We'll be using a paper to create a finished design. The design could be very minute to integrate. So we will learn a lot of things. Are you excited? I'm excited. Let's design. The machine software would look like this. We can see how deep and minute the fish design, starting from its fins to it scales. All are so very tiny, say technically as small as two millimeter. The best part of this technology is you would get the same finishing. Be it be two millimeter or three millimeter, or 50 millimeter. Likewise, if you cut this design 100 times or 100,000 times, the final output that we would get from this machine would be exactly same as the first one. This simulation feature in the machine would show us the flow or the sequence of its laser beam. And also would let us know the estimated time it would take to finish the job. As promised, we're going even though design on people, more money on me. 7. Creating HotDog Brooch: Hi friends.
