One of the charms I was playing with on the Metaza last night.
Itās also why they donāt let me play unsupervised very much. This was the least offensive of 3.
I will probably do a side by side comparison of the Metaza engraved charm and one in which I use
Cermark and laser it. Just as soon as I catch a break. cheers!

I love this. Can I steal it to make a bookmark with this on there? I have the āGo the F*** to Sleepā childrenās book for my son, and I canāt think of a better page marker to go with it than this.

My first successful 3-d print! Iām not entirely happy with the hardware situation and may redesign the camera platform so it retains the camera-attaching-bolt-thingy. And, well, it printed with a weird raft that I forgot to turn off so all the pieces have a strange grid on one side. I may re-print with more infill and thicker skin, but this works for now.

Yesterday I delivered my first big DMS project to my mother for her birthday. It is a bedside table with a cedar top and steel base. (Yes, it weighs a ton.) Top was cut to have a 45 degree angle on the Multicam so it fits with a bed placed in the corner on a diagonal. Only took me 8 months from idea to completion on this! Thanks to all for the classes and advice through the project. Learned a ton and now I am looking forward to the next projects.

Beautiful! And it clearly uses a lot of different types of skills. Well done. Iām sure she will really enjoy it.
The wood is also beautiful. What kind of wood is it?

@John_Marlow and @jast, I originally was going to do a cherry top but it wasnāt turning out like I wanted and the scale was wrong (too thin). At 11th hour, I switched to cedar. It was a couple cedar 4x4s from Home Depot that are supposed to be fence posts! Used the band saw to make them 2X4s and I was off and running. Finish is several coats of poly to protect if a glass is left on it. (And base finish is black primer followed by a black āhammeredā spray paint.)

Iāve created a new thread for continued discussion about this being a potential āMake & Takeā Advanced metal/wood class (and any other general discussion about this particular project) so yāall can focus on it as much as yāall want outside of this āShow & Tellā thread. 
BTW ~ I do agree that itās a beautiful (and solid) piece! Your mother is very lucky!
ā¦and, that it would make a great project!

I made this while I was hanging out at dms this week. Itās a leaf-cut amethyst CZ, along with some freshwater pearls and Austrian crystal. The gold color is for a birthstone, but I think it looks striking with the deep purple of the focal stone. I shaped the frame around the setting to complement the shape of the focal stone and its orientation. The metal is 14k-gf.
