For many years, “Batman” has been visiting kids with disabilities and illnesses to spread a little bit of magic in what can be a distressing time. Some of the children may not have long to live and he does what he can to make their time as special as possible.
The kids he visits are also given a personalised gift.
A personalised gift from Batman, what is more special than that!?
From Craft Knife to Laser Cutting
For many years Batman armed with just a craft knife and his creativity and a desire to do good would hand craft gifts for the children he visits.
But Batman loves gadgets so an upgrade was made. These days Batman uses his Flux Beambox Pro he purchased from MindKits to produce some amazing and very unique gifts for those he visits.
The Flux Beambox Pro Laser Cutter lets you shape, cut, and engrave on materials like wood, leather, acrylic, and cardboard. Which allows Batman to produce a huge range of gifts from engraved mirrors to personalised wooden money boxes. He showed us one gift given to a child who was blind, where he had engraved the child’s name in braille. He goes above and beyond to make each gift special for the child.
The laser cutter allows him to create gifts much faster than he used to and he can customise them for each child.
“If I’d known it was that easy I would have bought one years ago!”
A lot of time and effort goes into this work, we asked Batman what drives him? His reply, “I’m Batman” and he’s just doing what he can for people. We couldn’t have more respect for him.
Batman’s advice for those wanting to do something that gives back is to start small, “do something for a neighbour, someone on the street” and build up from there.
