  • Pop culture poster art, screenprinting, and laser cutting come together in this officially licensed Star Wars shadowbox art piece from illustrator Daniel Danger. We chat with Daniel about his haunting artwork, experiments with laser cutting, and utilizing his expertise in screen printing to add parallax and dimensionality to poster art. The result is this gorgeous piece showing the iconic scene of Luke Skywalker arriving on Dagobah!

    Very neat. It combines a bunch of things that I like a lot.
    Smart solution with the vacuum pulling the pieces down. I would think he would use some sort of adhesive, but his is most likely a better solution, as he has all those narrow pieces that could get damaged if he had to peel them off.
    Anyways, pretty cool stuff. Thanks, Norm!

    • @DanielDangerTME
      @DanielDangerTME 2 роки тому +2

      Yeah, adhesive would likely damage the small fine vines and branches, and it's messy and there's alot of ink/paper dust. The vacuum table does a few things, keeps the overall paper flat so the laser is in focus, keeps small pieces from flying away and landing elsewhere in the way of a future cut, and vents the fire/heat straight down vs the original fan pulling it across the surface for cleaner cuts (less scorching).

  • @PubUltraStar
    @PubUltraStar 2 роки тому +1

    Fun tip for laser cutting paper on the glowforge is using repositional spray adhesive on the back. Until they give us access to turn off the air assist fan, or you build a custom vacuum tray, the spray helps keep pieces from blowing around. -

    • @DanielDangerTME
      @DanielDangerTME 2 роки тому +3

      We built vacuum tables inside. Spray would get messy real quick with the screenprinting ink becoming atomized from the laser heat and fans. Speed and efficiency is important when doing literally thousands of cut pieces, I can't go too deep into it but we got a really really good system going.
