Maps

Southcentral Alaska Topographic Map

This topographic map covers the entire Kenai Peninsula, and goes north to Talkeetna, East to Cordova, and West to Skwetna.  This project is 3’x3′, so I cut it at the Anchorage Makerspace, which has a larger laser cutter that’s capable of cutting something this size.

Kachemak Bay (Homer) Alaska, Bathymetry Map

This project was created using the Kachemak Bay, Alaska 1/3 arc-second MHW Coastal Digital Elevation Model dataset from NOAA’s National Geophysical Data Center (NGDC) for bathymetry, and The National Map’s Alaska 100 Meter Resolution Albers Projection dataset for elevation.

Tolovana Hot Springs (Fairbanks Alaska) Topographic Map

Tolovana Hot Springs are located in the Alaskan interior wilderness, and accessible by a 10 mile trail from the Elliot Highway. Topography came from The National Map DEM and trail data came from GPS data collected on a recent trip to the hot springs.

Kodiak Island Combined Topography and Bathymetry Map

This project was created using the Alaska Region Digital Elevation Model (ARDEM) dataset.

Biking the Back Roads of Texas Wall Art

Texas vs Alaska Wall Art

This “goodbye” gift was for a friend who moved to Anchorage from Austin. The two cities are overlaid, and the maps are to scale.

These arm guards were cut and etched with the laser cutter, then stained and sealed before adding hardware.
