Visit with smcgathyfay

This weekend I got a visit from @smcgathyfay! All sorts of things were done and we designed my Escutcheon.

It was great to catch up with her and her daughter and talk all things glowforge.

Glad my attempts at knowing what I was doing seemed to go over well @smcgathyfay :wink:

Thankfully, Iā€™ve been able to play around a lot. I donā€™t have a ton of ā€œpresentationā€ type things done yet to show everyone, but that Mug is the first time I incorporated the Laser with making my mugs! Of course, I couldnā€™t show that off until I had given it to her.

Wellā€¦Iā€™ve decided that I will bring one as a gift to whoever I visit or whomever visits me. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:
Although I will make an exception since you asked before I decided this

Thank goodness Iā€™m grandfathered inā€¦canā€™t get away from here very often, and these days - all travel is devoted to trips home to take care of momā€™s bizness. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Oh yes, and you pass within 40 miles of me and you definitely would only add about 20 minutes of driving time if you detoured through the Lake!

No, he brought a handful of assorted ones for me! We did have fun exploring some files he brought for the occasion.
Itā€™s really cool to introduce people to the UI and see how quickly they can wield it! Minutes.
Of course he is technical, and as such found the ease a welcome experience. That is the main goal and the mojo glowforge brings. Even people like me pick it up and run with it right away.
