    I gotcha. I left the 30-50 year patina on the fixtures. It wouldn't be right to mess with that. I officially have one bulb in and wired. Moving on to the second stalk.

    And it's wired. I have it hung in the common area at the shop, which isn't the most photogenic spot for it. I'll take it down and get better pictures with a plain backdrop later.

    Most of what I've made lately has to do with my new business.

    I used the laser cutter to engrave a sheet of acrylic with a reverse image of my logo. I used the "stamp" like a wood block to print the logo on envelopes. The envelopes will hold my business card and a decal for the Jambo grab bags.

    5b09f35888d5ad442b7d5fecaedf365b_04601113626a0a07f8401d9329aea21e448b7d97.jpg

    Here are the vinyl cut decals that I cut.

    I then realized that I didn't have a sign for my booth at Jambo, so I got to work again on the laser. This is burned 1/4" birch plywood.
