Behind the work

A real maker.
Not a factory.

I'm Josiah, the person behind Try Another Dimension. I work with laser engraving and 3D printing to turn everyday things into personal gifts and useful creations.

The business started finding its feet with chopping boards. That's only the beginning. The fun part is figuring out what we can make next.

Actual TAD engraving process, sped up.
