Dark Walnut in any various depths possible,
Exotic hardwoods
Leather
Ignoring the things to sell that have likely been all over this list from everyone else, have been cultivating a list of first projects to learn on. Had hoped to be able to make a cake topper and/or some groomsman gifts in time for our wedding in late October, but with the preorder units shipping later, going to have to find another way to do that.
Organizing
Want to do drawer inserts for dressers with cutouts for everything to be organized at the end of the day.
Can’t wait to have uniform spice jars and make a rack for them all.
Will be engraving everything in the office that isn’t nailed down and cut down on those “Excuse me, I believe you have my stapler” Milton moments.
Furniture/Home
Really looking forward to figuring out some cool furniture to make with that pass through door. That and wall art. Going to have some fun building some wine racks and some lighting.
Lots of wall art.
And boxes.
Tech
Cell phone cases, enclosures, cable chases and other tech random stuff like a headphone stand that has room for the charging cable in the right spot. I look forward to being able to make things everywhere fit cleanly and like a glove to reduce clutter.
Misc.
Going to have fun taking all sorts of things apart and replacing pieces of things around the house that aren’t particularly interesting with nicer hardwood pieces. Coverplates on tech things, or switch plates, whatever. Ever since the preorder I’ve started seeing these little mini projects around the house and office, this is likely the only place where people know what I mean. If it is relatively thin, has screw holes on it, and would look better in wood.
Work for a film festival, so I will probably be using it to redesign our filmmaker awards, customize them with actual campaign art, and have it all cost a lot less than going to an awards shop.
Random other thought- Pixelmator plugin?
