How are you liking the Saturn? Printed a bunch of parts for a movie and really could have used more build plate space.

the saturn is great, ill text you next time they are in stock for $500 on amazon

A friend commissioned my to engrave some mason jars for her friend’s bachelorette party. Done on my own laser, but could have been done at the Space. I built a jig for repeatable positioning using LEGO bricks.

I replaced the center console of my truck with one that fits my needs better. The console sat low, so I fabricated this sheet metal mount for it to make it sit higher and at a better angle.

18ga stainless sheet cut on the Dynatorch, then bent on the box pan brake. There were a couple of design improvements spotted during install should I ever make a better one, and ideally it should have had a little more meat in some areas as it vibrates a tad (though not noticeable in the drive home):

Made these phone holders from the depicted MDF pieces. The MDF pieces were carved using a CNC router. Marine vinyl was used to cover the pieces. I used vinyl rather than leather because it better resists mold, it’s waterproof, and it’s vegan friendly. Canvas was used to cover the edges.

So this time I wanted to do something different, just kidding it’s more tables lol so I came across this mahogany in the back warehouse at hardwood lumber and normally i don’t use much mahogany, it’s a great wood with great properties just it’s the vanilla ice cream of wood just not very exciting but this stuff blew my mind, ive never seen mahogany inhibit this pattern tightly ribboned figure, and it turned out nice, I’ve been making the dad joke “I made a table with a “twist”’ and hopefully you get the dad level 100 pun. But it’s soft maple and did something a little different in regards to finish I used sanding sealer to coat it, then applied a semi gloss nitrocellulose lacquer then after letting the lacquer off gas for a week gave it a good coat of paste wax, and while it almost doubled the time spent finishing I love how it turned out and I think it’ll be my new go to!

Made some cabinet doors for a friend. They’d purchased some kitchen cabinets from the break room of a store which was closing. Installed them in their barn’s tack room., but several were missing doors.

I cut down a matching folding table for the door panels and used European cup hinges to attach. The hinges are really quite easy to attach and have ample adjustments for fine tuning the alignment.

She need six doors but the table only made four, so I made two from plywood and we’ll cover those with upholstery leather.

Two doors have been installed. Waiting on Woodcraft to order in the remaining hinges to complete the install.

That is sooo cool, I wish I could do that man!

Haha. So my dad got into wine a while ago and there’s these classes for like 20$ and you go and taste and learn about wines and where they’re from etc etc so I blame him! But maybe like 7-10% of those are actually mine my mom “doesn’t like the look of a stupid wine rack in the house” and since rhe person who makes the decision at my place are me myself and I, he stores his over here lol
