This is the button i made when practising on the laser cutter. I designed the overall circular shape on indesign and then the concentric circles that decorate the body of the button I programmed so they would only be indented and not cut out as you can see and they make an intricate ridged pattern which makes the button much more interesting and texturised and then the star shapes that work round the circle I chose to have them cut out and same with button holes in the middle ! The only problem here was the button holes in the middle as the stars i put too close together and when i popped out the plastic the tiny bit seperating the two stars also came out, so this is something to bear in mind when doing my laser cutting for my skull project
