I got tired of tripping over the latest 4 brake rotors in the garage, so it was time get rid of them and others I still had tucked away from my last two #Chevy trucks. Also got rid of some other scrap I had been saving. .

#throwbackthursday Almost 10 years ago I had a membership to the late lamented Techshop #Pittsburgh and made this #laser cut #chess set and box for the pieces. It was a challenging project, but a lot of fun. I’d doubt my kids have used it more than a couple of times. Box is 1/4” cherry plywood, board and pieces at acrylic cut on their @trotecusa laser.

I’ve been 3D printing since 2013 with a MakerGear M2 fused filament printer, and am truly amazed at what the AnyCubic mono 4k at $189 can do. These are right out of the box, no tuning. The print quality is mind boggling.

I finally got around to making drawers for a bench I made a few years ago from a reclaimed door I got at Construction Junction (an architectural salvage & reuse nonprofit here in #Pittsburgh ) and some square steel tubing. The drawers are simple plywood and pocket hole joinery draw fronts are cherry, and the pulls were from someone running a brushing scam. I only have 18 more to use.

More #introduction content. Here are a few examples of some of my CNC work. The @makemagazine Makey is painted MDF as are the others. Empire Of Dust is how I refer to my shop with apologies to YouTuber AvE. The @NASA Apollo 11 plaque was made in honor of the 50th anniversary of the moon landing. The Once on This Island sign was made for my kid who had a nice role in a summer camp production.
