![]() ![]() It looks like “they” make printable acrylic sheets. I also imagine gluing the photo-paper onto the acrylic without smearing the ink might require a bit of technique… maybe. Possible hangups I can foresee using this method are the unknowns regarding the safety of cutting photo-paper and whatever glue you end up using with a laser. Actually printing onto cardboard might be easier said than done… I dunno, I haven’t actually tried it myself, but I know there are desktop inkjet printers out there that will print onto flat, rigid material so I’m guessing it’s possible.Įdit after seeing the post above - Foam board would prolly be even better, especially if you could print directly onto it.Ī possibly better solution might be to print the graphics onto photo-paper and paste them onto the back of transparent acrylic, then cut the laminated pieces out wit’ the Glowforge. How about printing them onto white-backed cardboard and using the Glowforge to cut them out? Cardboard isn’t particularly rigid, and the props might not last more than a couple events, but they would be cheap and would be easy to make. Looking the samples you’ve posted, and knowing that you have a Glowforge, let me throw out where my mind goes when I see props like that and think about what I might do if I was going to try to make them… (which, I suppose I might as I also have a photo booth that I built for “fun”). What constraints are you working with? Like, do you want them to be easy/fast to make, inexpensive, high quality? It sounds like you’d like them to be made from a rigid material.
