THE INVENTABLES WORKSHOP

We used to love making paper snowflakes, folding a piece of paper into quarters and snipping little pieces out, then unfolding it into a radially repeating geometric shape. Then, our software engineer Paul Kaplan showed us this and we all put down our scissors and started using it instead. It's an online snowflake generator!

In giddy anticipation of the impending holiday season, our own designer Alex Berger created a handful of fun projects to share. These simple ornaments can be cut on a Shapeoko or a laser cutter, which means you're free to use all kids of materials- natural woods for a more traditional, rustic look, or even glitter acrylics to add a twinkle to your home. Take a look through our materials section for inspiration:  https://www.inventables.com/

The weekend is finally here so it is time to get making! Here are a few awesome projects from the last couple weeks that you can open and mill directly from Easel . Have something awesome to show off? Post it as a project and we'll feature it! 

The speed we reached our goal was incredible and your energy was electric. We can’t thank you enough. Thanks to your ongoing support and for helping us make this happen, we want to give each Carvey backer a bit extra. You've been so incredibly supportive so far in the campaign. We want everyone that gets a Carvey from our Kickstarter to have an amazing experience. Getting started Kit!  Today we are adding a few new things to the Early Bird Carvey and Carvey levels. There are a lot of backers that are new to 3D Carving and this will be their first time carving. We want to make sure that your first experience is magical. To that end, we will be adding a piece of  Expanded PVC  foam material into the box, so you’ll be able to  make something  as soon as you open the machine. The incredible thing about Carvey is its versatility. The milling bits it uses are like lenses in a professional camera: new bits expand your creative abilities. We started you with a ⅛” 2 flute spiral
