Burnin’ up my fuse out here alone.
I turned a quick sketch I did a couple weeks ago into a quick Glowforge demo tchotchke. This might be useful/amusing for others as a quick, inexpensive give away item for maker fairs, festivals, etc.
This version is friction-fit with Proofgrade Medium Draftboard.

Tchotchket?

Cool. Triggered a song memory in my brain (Elton John’s Rocketman).

It’s been called the most misquoted or misunderstood lyrical song ever
(Most misinterpreted title probably belongs to Puff the Magic Dragon )

Cool, can’t tell from the photo but what did you cut it from?
That one is Proofgrade Medium Draftboard. I have some brushed aluminum acrylic I was going to use to cut one but, haven’t got to it, yet.
