How to Make a Playable Record Using a Laser Cutter

Last year we posted about a tutorial by Amanda Ghassaei of Instructables on how to turn MP3s into playable 3D printed records. Ghassaei recently posted a follow up tutorial on how to make playable records using a laser cutter. So far she has used the technique to make records out of wood, paper, and acrylic. The tutorial includes some videos of her laser cut records playing on a turntable: try Radiohead’s “Idioteque” on wood, and Joy Division’s “Love Will Tear Us Apart” on acrylic.
