What a busy week... now last minute Friday test - laser cutting holes on leather. We're helping a client with their leather sewing techniques. It looks like it's worked, but we'll know more once our client has tested it. Watch this space... #problemsolving #fridaymotivation❤️

It’s #friday to brighten up your day…. here's @nefertipi a Spanish, London based multidisciplinary artist that we’ve recently had the pleasure of working with. We laser cut her designs as MDF shapes for her latest work “Me specta!” (Look at me!) #lovewhatwedo #lasercutting

A lot of leather projects at the mo Laser cutting leather is a delicate business & some finishes aren't compatible. Natural leather is best & we always carry out tests first. A lot of fashion designers use laser cutting for its enhanced precision #lasercuttingleather

Being in #Shoreditch surrounded by creatives is perfect for us & fits with our boutique approach. #artists love us as… we’re close to their studios, they can pop in & view works in progress, have large cutting machines all under one roof & we help solve problems. #londonlife

From the archives...a typical town planning model at 1:1000 scale. A pre-planning visual aid, as relevant today as it was in 2007 when we made it. #townplanning #preplanning #modelmaking #modelmakingskills #attentiontodetail #visualaid #propertydevelopment #architectualmodel

Did you know that the origins of the game Nought & Crosses traces back to ancient Egypt & in some parts of the world, is also known as Tic-Tac-Toe? Here's our version, in Plywood... #fridayvibes #fridayfeeling #plywood #noughtsandcrosses #tictactoe #lasercuttinglondon #london

We love the colour 'pop' with these signs for @ascendsignworks We #lasercut a 10mm clear acrylic back panel & 5mm green, blue & white acrylic text/logos, then we glued them onto the back to create fresh-looking office signs. @carpetbrightuk - new office, done! #signmaking

We produced this fab "Tudor House" sign for architect & mosaic artist Tessa Hunkin. Working from a sketch, we made a CAD file & CNC machined 18mm Marine Plywood letters. These were then installed & painted by the client. #historicallondon #tudorhouse #architecture #SignageMaker
