SO figured if Glowforge was willing to hand out some grants, wondered if Reynolds Advanced would (since I’ll burn through $300 worth of silicones this weekend) so asked and they sent over the regional manager to my lab to see the stuff we’d be making, and yes, they will be providing silicone for me there (and I don’t have to lug it down! - of course I am bringing backup). So since Harvard medical school and Massachusetts rules require me to disclose any funding, another sign was born (after the GF sign) so made it in walnut; not as blown away as I thought I’d be with the convert grays to power (the black R in their logo damned near burned through to the back while the cones behind it are just simply surface marked (no 3D ness).
I don’t know if anyone had seen the small design change I made to the Glowforge sign, I had originally intended on making it in Maple, but figured a more luxurious wood would be cooler, so had to go back and correct
I thought that was a funny way to go back & correct it without burning a whole new sheet (or using the other side). I’m stealing your sign for the GF for the Greater Hartford Mini Maker Faire because they gave me a cool PRU to use for the past 6 months. I’m adding their website URL though so people will be able to have that and I’m going to try a QR code engraving (it may have to end up being a sticker - not sure if the contrast will work for an engrave) for the geeks who just want to scan and go.

I’m excited to see these in person!
