So there's one link today that makes my artistic soul happy - it is the laser-controlled Etch A Sketch. Although I never owned an Etch A Sketch (some smarty pants might say right here that in Russia we used rusty nails to draw on cardboard instead), but the idea to draw with a laser beam […]

You will not believe what happened today.
Our boss showed up to work today wearing a red shirt with beige pants. BEIGE PANTS!
Also, he just so happens to be leaning on the brand-new laser that was delivered not 20mins ago. It's a 60W Eplilog Helix (which you may have figured out for yourself), and comes with 33% more buttons, blue-painted bits, and watts than our old (and crispy) 40W model. And as we all know, more buttons = more awesome.
This would be the part where we say, "Now witness the firepower of this fully armed and operational battle station!" But first we need to finish the renovations and have a place to plug it in (along with the neglected Pick-n-Place machines also in the photo).
Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go crack a whip over those slackers building the clean room. It's a laser, people. A LAAAZOR. Priorities don't get much more important than that.

Make was a blast... but now onto the Hol...
Wow, has it been that long already? The MAKEr Faire in Austin was beautiful, and interesting. Funny how we saw many Texans driving along with their windows up, while us two Canadians were wearing shorts with the top down on our rental. Interesting how people adjust to different climates! The MAKEr Faire wasn't quite as […]
