The coasters and sensor ideas are brilliant on their own, but the "prescription wine glass" is pure genius! I love it.

[@DIYMachines]

Hahah, yes. Everyone who has seen the wine glass in person has enjoyed a laugh. Glad that you enjoyed it. ☺️

[@judahcortez5235]

Man this guy is so cool. Wish u were my teacher or dad. Keep up the excellent projects

[@DIYMachines]

Wow, thanks! That is high praise indeed.

[@neilnagel9857]

Thanks Lewis for another inventive project!

[@DIYMachines]

You're very welcome. I'm glad you like it - it's a little different to my other projects, but allows people to get much more creative with there own versions.

[@TheUnofficialMaker]

Consider making a video on how you make your custom PCB's. Thanks. Your videos are top notch, sound, video, clear explanations, you found your calling.

[@zhangfreya9817]

Thank you Lewis, fantastic job

[@DIYMachines]

You're welcome. 🙂

[@sjm4306]

Very creative, love it! I made a laser cut kumiko lantern a little while ago and it was one of the funnest projects I've done in awhile. Just a tip, once you home the laser, manually moving the head will make it lose position. If you want the machine to know its absolute position you should only interact with it via its controls. That being said I often manually move the laser to where my material is, but its not necessary to home before that.

[@DIYMachines]

Some great advice. Thank you. I will try it that way next time I cut something. 👍🏼

[@averagefelixlover2507]

Wow cool video! I love being creative! It’s fun to make little projects like this! ❤

[@DIYMachines]

Thank you! 😊

[@hannahpk]

What a fun project, I can't wait to try it. also that song at the start was weird.

[@DIYMachines]

Thank you - yes it's a bit like being in an elevator. 🤣

[@GoldenBannaOfficial]

Great job, can't wait to print these. Can't wait for the next video!

[@DIYMachines]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@Iamonyoutube_hlb]

Yay

[@sriharinair2857]

Hey Amazing Video!

[@DIYMachines]

Hey, thanks! Appreciated. 😊

[@Unknown15916]

Michael, All those years studying engineering and technology just for "Crazy Coasters". 😅

[@DIYMachines]

I liked your name of 'Crazy Coasters' so much I changed the videos title. :) Thanks

[@deanmcbride7465]

Hello mate, I know that you posted the video ages ago but I'm planning on building my own rendition of your arduino bartender. I've noticed that the stl file for the drag chain isn't up on Thingiverse with the rest of the components. Was just wondering if you would be able to fix this at some stage?

[@makewithmegma]

💕👍

[@rossmcsweeney]

Some of these look eerily similar to my designs...

[@gyrurur]

Can you make a new version of your 2 d plotter

[@DIYMachines]

What would you like to see done differently?

[@gyrurur]

@@DIYMachinesi think you can do a better design
