Well, we usually don’t post simply things we find on Instructables but this is really AWESOME:
this work is based on and inspired by carlbass Mechanical iris
Inspired by his work I quickly put a piece of plywood in my desktop laser cutter and set it to work. Minutes later the promise appeared, and within moments I had pieced everything together in a fully functioning mechanical iris. Awesome!
However, after admiring the design I spotted few ways in which I felt it could be improved.
It’s a very beautiful improvement of an existing piece of work and it shows the real potential of design and laser cutting :)
