Laser Cut and Engraved Dice Tray
Similar to the Laser Cut and Engraved Box project available elsewhere on this site, the Acrylic Dice Tray is an invaluable resource for tabletop and board game use--durable, highly customizable, and easy to make!
These instructions do assume basic proficiency with the Universal laser cutters, and general knowledge of the use of Inkscape for optional customization, but other than that this project is fairly straightforward, and is an ideal next project for those who have completed the laser cut box and want to branch out to new materials.

Make a hanging ornament out of clay.
3D Printed Phone Stand with Charging Port
Make a 3D printed phone stand with a charging port and a small, front storage area!
Quilted Placemat Samplers
Placemats as a Freestyle Quilting Sampler
Making smooth continuous freestyle shapes on the long arm quilter takes practice. Why not try several types for a single project? You can try flowers, spirals, zig zags, stones, woodgrains, words, single line drawings, wanderings, knit look - the options are many! A set of six placemats lets you practice six techniques. You need to be badged on the long arm quilter and basic sewing machine and/or serger machine.
Supplies for 6 placemats include:
Triangle Desk Lamp With Interchangeable Matboard Shade
This is a cute desk/bedside lamp with an optional laser engraved shade made using a stippling type pattern. It's extremely inexpensive and fairly quick to fabricate. It makes a great gift, especially due to its interchangeable press-fit shade: you can give the base along with one shade as a gift, and then add to it by gifting new shades for other occasions. Depending on the wood/finish and the bulb brightness you choose, it can also look pretty nice without a shade.
A 10 minute cloth mask (9"x6" starting size)
This is a fast, simple sewn facemask that includes a nose piece. It is designed for use with the 9" x 6" mask kits, but you can also cut material to 9"x6". This pattern also works at 9.5"x7" for a larger mask. I was able to create a mask in about 10 minutes, and that's with some 7th grade home-ec training and a badging on a sewing machine at MakeHaven. This is written by a novice sewist for novices. You can do this!
Make Your Own Spaghetti (or other pasta)
Homemade pasta is a quick and easy project, and delicious!
Easy Zippered Bag
Easy Zippered Bag. Pictured here is what I call a cosmetic bag but this can be any size or shape you want. For example: pencil case, phone case, computer case, tablet case, etc. The size of this cosmetic bag finished is 7" wide and 6" long with curved edges.
