Laser-etching lots of rulers for the Detroit Urban Craft Fair in just over a week.
And yes, for any laser-experts out there, I know there shouldn’t be a flame. I adjusted the power down after this cut.

Working on some new bread boards/cutting boards. Hopefully I’ll have another design or two for etching in the near future.
I’ve been asked a few times why I didn’t choose to make cutting boards in the shape of Michigan. I’ve made ones in the past, but I decided against making them now because a) they’re already being made locally and b) I felt like even though they were more work to make, they were actually a little less practical as cutting boards.
There’s something I enjoyed about a simple, slightly misshapen cutting board, so I cut them by hand, sanded them down, and finished them with mineral oil.
It’s been awhile since I’ve worked on things to sell at a show, but I have two events lined up next month, just before the holidays.
I have some new things to sell, along with some I’ve been making for awhile.

The top poster for the Detroit Urban Craft Fair was designed by my good friend, Jodi Lynn Burton.
