Whether it is a custom 3D printed cookie cutter or a precision laser-engraved cutting board, we handle the design, prototyping, and final fabrication right here in our Indiranagar lab. We keep things experimental and hands-on, so you get pieces that feel crafted, not mass-produced. We are not a factory, and we do not pretend to be one. At Paper Crane Lab, we are a group of curious folks who love the messy, experimental side of making. This gallery is a snapshot of our latest projects and prototypes, showing exactly what our machines and our team can do when we mix a little tech with a lot of art. ### What we do We specialize in turning digital ideas into tangible objects. If you have a specific need, we work through the design process with you, prototype it to see if it holds up, and then create the final piece. * **Laser Cutting & Engraving:** From personalized coasters to detailed puzzles, we use our laser cutter to etch and cut through wood, acrylic, and more. * **3D Printing:** We turn 2D designs into 3D objects using PLA plastic. It is perfect for functional parts, custom stamps, or unique home decor. * **Vinyl Cutting:** We create custom decals and heat-pressed designs for apparel and merchandise. ### Why work with us Our approach is grounded in accessibility. We believe that coding, engineering, and digital fabrication should not be intimidating. That is why our shop is a makerspace first—we want you to be part of the process. If you are in Bengaluru and have an idea for a project, a gift, or a prototype, drop by or send us a message. We are always up for a new challenge. ## About Paper Crane Lab We are Paper Crane Lab, a mix of an NGO and a wild makerspace in Bengaluru. We are a bunch of curious people who believe that tech, coding, and art should be accessible to everyone. Whether you need a custom prototype or just want to tinker with machines, we are here for it.
