Murder Cat
Saw a post online about 3D printing some above the door murder cats. I decided to do a remix so you can laser cut them. Also adding my own upgrade.
The original 3D printing files are here,
I converted the stl files to svg and made them a slot and tab base. Making these from 1/8" plywood I spray painted black. (The following are .svg files you can download)
(All the svg files can also be found here as well as the LightBurn file)
I made a little test cut so you can adjust the fit of the slots. Just update the dimensions of the slots in the base relative to your test cuts.
Optional Upgrade
I wanted glow in the dark eyes, so I cut a eye backer from some thin acrylic sheet.
Glued it on the back side with some E6000 glue.
I’m using some glow in the dark paint I had on hand. It takes a lot of coats to build up a decent glow layer, so I’m using a syringe to pipe in a thick layer into the eye well. The paint takes a long time to dry so overnight is best for a thick layer. Some glow in the dark pigment mixed in some epoxy would probably work better.
