Got my Glowforge today! Woohoo! But, of course, I had to work an 12 hour day, so I just cut a “Gift of Good Measure Keychain” Metric as I’m in Austria and an “H” because I had to try the trace. Since I’m partaking in #36daysoftype that was a surprisingly nice way to do tomorrows letter as you can see below. I also do mockups whenever I do these challenges just to check what I could use it for so I added those too.

I really like your “h!” So glad you are finally able to have some fun with your machine, and hope you get some time off to play.

Thank you! Unfortunately this week it’ll be a tight squeeze since I have my regular work, a freelancer job and a bookbinding-course (Friday and Saturday) this week. It probably will be Sunday or late at night to do some more. But it is so easy to use I really couldn’t imagine that!

i could see you coming home from day one of bookbinding with something you want to do on the GF friday night to bring back for day two.

I really like the wall art photo. There is something very soothing about the repeating pattern of the crumb tray as the image background.

Chicken butt! (Being in Austria, you may not get the reference… but(t) it’s funny, trust me.)

Okay, I trust you but would prefer to get it.

It’s from an OLD Saturday Night Live skit with Macaulay Culkin when he was a kid. He kept asking an adult, “Guess what?” They’d reply “What?” He’d say “Chicken Butt!”
I know it sounds stupid typed out… but(t)… I can’t explain it. My son (10yo) hates it now, because I do it all the time. (since he could talk LOL)
Anyway… sorry, I’m 10 mentally apparently. Sorry for the tangent in your thread. I’ll go now.
