How we create beautiful maps of cities made of wood

The process of making a street map of the City of London. The map is made of plywood, drawn on a laser of several layers.

If you are interested in the products we make, you can see them on our Etsy shop here

If only the Thames water was that clean. Great work

Any chance you could do a video on how to make a design and enter it into the program for a laser cutter?

Thank you for the video. Where are you getting the city pictures / files from? What site? Thank you

Intersting. Very nice work. What are the thin sheets of wood? MDF?

Hi if you don't mind what's the name of your laser cutter machine

How do you get the highway lines so thick? Ive tried but mine comes out very thin

[dontgetfulsh]

looks cool I'll give you that! But why did you paint the entire backplane blue? Seems like a waste of paint when just the tiny bit that is the River Thames actually shows through and the rest is behind the middle layer

[DrorSapir]

what software do you use to make the map layers?

[yasminejago]

If I may ask, what wood engraving machine are you using?

[timsherwood]

Is there a go to site for downloads... i have a decent machine just learning how to use it bit im not a artist

[dennismitchel]

Hi, did you use white Paint on last layer?

I like the outcome but the "creative" photography of this video is on display and not the project. It just gets in the way.
