I made a few of these Terra Cotta ornaments using a cutter that I bought when I went to Nebraska to see the eclipse. I wanted a modern train stamp but that was hard to find and I didn’t want it badly enough to pay for a custom stamp. It isn’t exactly like I had planned but I ran out of time so it will work. :slight_smile:

I made this wallet for a charity silent auction (http://dallasstreetdogadvocates.org/) earlier this month. Used the stitching pony I made at DMS and skills I learned from @Webdevel

I made some bookmarks from dual-layer, flexible plastics (Flexibrass from Johnson Plastics) on the Epilog Zing laser cutter, with help from @Evan_Lott . I’ve been amazed at the precision of the Zing in etching the details! Each bookmark is about 2"x6 1/2" and 1/32" thick. Some were made as Christmas gifts and others may be posted on my Etsy store when I get around to it: https://www.etsy.com/shop/ElectricArpeggio

The images are from patent documents. You can find lots of neat images by searching for patent print art, or searching at patents.google.com directly.

Very nice!

I took the Wood Lathe Basics class with John Gorman (@talkers) at 4:30 PM today, having never touched a lathe before, and then I was able to take the Wood-Lathe Pen Turning class at 6:30 tonight with my

husband Andrew (@jendrew12). Here are the pens we made in class - he made the maple pen with the copper hardware, and I made the walnut pen with the gunmetal hardware. John is an AWESOME instructor, and I can’t wait to create more stuff on the wood lathe! :smiley: Learning all the things!!!

I used cold rolled to lengthen mine. But I replaced the whole length.

Difference between you and me? You always go the extra mile, I go about half way :slight_smile:

@LukeStrickland I hope that’s not true for the Jeep.

I’ve been working on assembling (and troubleshooting) my latest 3D printer the SeeMeCNC Artemis. It’s a huge delta printer using a Duet wifi board and FSR bed leveling.

I also am setting up a YouTube/streaming studio in my apartment for consistent content creation.
