"Living Hinge O’ Lantern” LightBurn Halloween Project

Why yes, we are posting this after Halloween, because Halloween is year-round in our hearts. And because making stuff is how we celebrated Halloween at HQ.
We designed and made these “Living Hinge O’ Lanterns” for Halloween, utilizing several handy LightBurn tools along the way. You’ll find links below to the tools we used in this video - try them out yourself, and make something spooky of your own.

Good for procrastinators like me, plenty of time now until Halloween.

[@ThingsKatieMakes]

Look at that perfect press fit!

[@Ricks2Cents]

*Cool!!!*

[@MrJstrong74]

Halloween is over!

[@lightburnsoftware7189]

Halloween is coming back in 363 days, so we’re just giving you lots of time to prepare.

Love it! Do you have a living hinge for dummies tutorial?

[@lightburnsoftware7189]

We don't yet but that is a great idea and I have shared it with the team.

[@Alluvian567]

I missed what you were doing with the Kerf settings just after duplicating the living hinge pattern.

Great video! Just got one question, how to make the curve on the pumpkin shape? Like each of them are evenly divided and with the same angles of lines and curves? Thank you!

[@lightburnsoftware7189]

They can be made using the line tool combined with node editing to create the curves. "Mirror Across Line" was used to make sure both halves where symmetrical.

@@lightburnsoftware7189 hey thank you so much for your reply!! I will definitely try it out. I have seen that they just mirrored them but how can I combine all the shapes and lines together at the end?

[@woodturner1954]

Really nice work, but I love that background music. If you don't mind my asking, where did you find it? Never heard it before.

[@lightburnsoftware7189]

It’s in the Splice app for iPhone, royalty free Halloween music.

[@woodturner1954]

Thanks

[@langrock74]

lol, Halloween 2024, I suppose

[@cheekyoscar1353]

would be easier if we could just download the file then open it straight up in Lightburn. the files you have supplied don't make sense for me ..

[@lightburnsoftware7189]

The project file is the first link in the description. If you download it then you can open it directly in LightBurn.

[@cheekyoscar1353]

apologies . I will give that a try . thanks 🙏

[@6r4metroman]

Thanks, something is happening with the project file...

[@lightburnsoftware7189]

Google Drive shows it strangely but if you download it the project file is in the correct format and works fine.
