Its on a piece of BB. It took 127 Minutes to burn. It took HOURS to make the design and get it from Inkscape to the Laser

Looking good Gene.  The programs to run those things can be intimidating.

 

Worth every minute you put in it Gene.

Great design & family tribute.

I like it...A LOT!

you got that right....

Awesome job!Who'd have ever thunk that lasers and wood would go together?

Looks good Gene ,with that Armadillo font.  All that hard work payed off.

Thanks guys. Now, I gotta make two more. That one was practice. A little refining and some more research, first. I think I may be able to get faster, too. A local distillery has asked me to make a prototype mesquite gift box for their product. That sounds like fun. But, I do gotta get faster.

When’s the CNC arriving? LOLOL I would think there is a lot of similarities in the programming. Looks awesome sir. 

Artie, what I know about a CNC would fit on the head of a pin. I just recently learned the difference between a G code and a G string.

I bet you’d be churning out works of Gene, in no time.

So you're learning to play the guitar too?

I better with pictures than words.  Got a diagram?

Very nice Gene. Looks like fun.

Dave, add my musical expertise to the head of that pin and there would still be room for Shakespear's Hamlet.

But at least you know the third string up now...you're on your way to Nashville...

I'm set. I've got a couple hats with the price tags hangin'.
