Bread Basket "Flower" cnc/laser

This basket is rather a bowl and the design is based on the principle of heat forming of plexi glass. I did use this feature at a few different designs like the ["Waveguide" Bedside Reading Lamp](https://www.zenziwerken.de/en/Lighting/Bedside-Reading-Lamp-Waveguide) or the [Toilet Roll Holder „Clear and Clean“](https://www.zenziwerken.de/en/Household-Items/ToiletRollHolder). You just put the part into the oven and heat it to 170 °C. The duration is depended on the thickness. My estimate is 1 minute per 1 mm material thickness. Keep in mind that the whole 'sheet' will become soft, so sharp bends are better achieved if you use a heat gun.

In the case of this bread basket, with it's bend petals, it is the desired effect and I saved my hands from getting burns using oven gloves. I did add a grove in the base to make it easier to get a flat spot.

Cutting the plexi glass is not that easy. You got to have a rigid cnc-machine that makes it possible to achieve speeds of more than 3 meters
