Thought I might as well get started making some birdhouse ornaments. I had an idea to use the laser for embellishing on some of them. Took me 4 or 5 attempts to figure out how to use the rotary chuck but right I'm loving it! Body is maple, top and bottom are sycamore.

Did you get one of those rotary beds for your new laser?

 thx Lew. The package I bought came with the rotary chuck, it's a pretty nice setup that can be configured a few different ways.

In hind sight (always 20/20) I wish I had purchased a more versatile setup.

Very cool Steve.  You have the laser figured out to a 'T'.  Looks great.

Awesome Steve. Love the embellishments. Remind me again in about 330 days.

Super nice Steve, I bet they'll be a big hit!

 Those are great Steve. Looks like the laser has opened up a new world.

Thank you everyone for the comments!!

So true. The more I learn what these machines can do the more I'm amazed. What's just as amazing to me, less than 10 years ago a machine like this would've cost thousands or dollars. Technology might be the only thing in the world getting less expensive.
