I CNC’d some acrylic on the 4 axis into lens like shapes. After a polish on the buffing wheel, they actually worked.

Made a walnut cheese board for the holidays. Came out a little too fraternity paddle-y, but you can still serve cheese on it. #cnc #walnut

I CNC’d a simple cheese board out of some mystery scrap, then routed the edges round. I don’t even like cheese all that much.

Messing Around with some designs.

Finally getting around to posting some images of the Tardi’s at the Neon Show.

I recently had a chance to work with a water jet cutter and carbon fiber, both for the first time. The water jet is at the NYU MakerSpace. Thanks for the help Sean.
