Why it seems like only 1 month and 18 days ago that we announced the ‘Make Your Laser Cut Toy’ challenge and, in fact, it was. All entrants stepped up to such a challenge with 196 laser cut creations! A big handclap and a few prematurely launched fireworks for all of you. We have ONE big winner for this challenge and five runners-up. Here they are with the additional honorable mentions from the judges.

‘Make Your Lasercut Toy’ Challenge

There were honestly and incredible amount of well-thought designs; many that had even been tested and built. We were looking for creativity and along with it manufacturability and, being a toy, high play factor. For any of the entries, our hope is that you can take your design and build it into a product you can sell via Ponoko or launch a Kickstarter campaign around. Many would say you’ve completed the difficult part of launching a campaign, especially if you already have the prototype built. Now, without further ado, we present the winner of the Laser cut Toy Challenge!

Grand Prize

The Grand Prize winner is:

Castle attack by Andrea Garuti
Castle attack by Andrea Garuti takes top prize with a fun and scalable build of a castle and the implements of medieval war. Storm the castle gate, launch cows and fiery hay bails over that parapets. Start small! Build tall!
