Thank you Alan!

That is really cool! I am an idiot! I saw you put that blank on the lathe and it hit me! I meant to get a bunch of thread inserts today. 😂

Thanks for the lesson Tim

The flat one would look great in bloodwood with very dark engraving. 😁

Very nice Carl

That is great Carl. It would make a great handle for a meat tenderizer or coffee press. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Thank you buddy! I'm having a lot of fun can't wait to play around with the rotary.

Cool beans! Now I’ll be looking at a new laser! I have a LaserPecker LP1, but it’s very slow, and limited as to what it can do.

Thanks Matt! I watched quite a few videos with the LaserPecker it's really cool you can take it just about anywhere.

Very cool! Thank you for sharing your learning experience.

Thank you John, I'm having a lot of fun with this thing 🙂

Awesome idea, they look great Carl. If you're going to record lightburn again, I find the easiest way is just hit "Win + G", then in the pop up, look for a button called 'capture' - easily lets you record your screen to a video file. 👍

Looks great. For another effect, select the fill option instead of lines -- you can also play with different layers and line intervals to add more features as well.

Those are really nice, Carl. Think about using a flat insert and pouring clear epoxy over the end. You could then shape it into a dome. Just a thought (I ramble a lot in my mind). Bill

Once upon a time handmade was the norm. Then automated production came into play and the handmade element became less and less important in the desire for more and more by producing it for less. Now it's plastic items made in vast quantities. I guess if your chasing the dollar why not go full cnc, laser, ai and automation. If you want to preserve the essence of woodturning I'd say the traditions and skills are a better way to go. I understand this is a complex topic and has many nuances. I'm not saying either way is right or wrong.
