GOMPER GLOWFORGE LASER SETTINGS:

  1. PINK = ENGRAVE: HD GRAPHIC
  2. JEMTOY LOGO = ENGRAVE: HD GRAPHIC
  3. BLUE = 1st CUT
  4. BLACK = LAST CUT
  1. Lay the WINGS down so the engraved side is facing up.
  2. Glue the PELVIS into the two tabs on bottom of WINGS.
  3. Glue the ARROW (flat side down) to top tab on the set of WINGS.
  4. Glue the HEAD on top of the 3 PELVIS and ARROW tabs. Hold or clamp to dry.
  5. Put a SPLAT on the table, stand a LEG up, glue the tab under the foot into the SPLAT.
  6. Glue a LINK to the top of the LEG, then add a second LINK completing one LEG.
  7. Do the same for the second LEG.
  8. Glue both LEG LINKS to the remaining tabs on the PELVIS.
  9. Gomper can stand now and is ready for action!
One Gomper Leg = 1 SPLAT + 1 LEG + 2 LINKS
Under the PELVIS and LINKS so you can see how LEGS and HEAD all go together.
Behind the scenes look of how the Gomper’s HEAD connects to the WINGS and ARROW.
If you have taken my Udemy course: Learn Inkscape For Glowforge you already know the Gomper. My Gomper guards the button on my Glowforge laser cutter. Why? Because Gomper reminds me to hook up the exhaust hose before I use the laser cutter. The big Glowforge button blinks and beckons at me and is so easy to push, but since I don’t want the room to fill with smoke, Gomper is there to remind me to do the right thing and connect the exhaust hose before I push that button. He’s also a great target for any Rubber Band Gun or Q-Tip Crossbow you may have.
