Someone has time on their hands.

Can anyone help to remove from the final design/product?

See images attached.

Machine is P2 OG.

Using instructions from xtool i have been able to fix the file.

[The feeder he is sitting on is only there for the camera. It got too moldy too fast so I stopped filling it. There are 2 other feeders behind this bird.]

Is there anything I can do to open access to my feeders? I went from refilling once a day to refilling every 3-4 days. This bird is nasty to anyone trying to eat in his territory.

I miss the swarms I used to get for years.

This guy gathers, cures and bundles all his sage. Its something that his family has done for years from what he told me.

I dont charge for these but the recovery community is all over the place so I get discounts at all the places they work.

Some of mine:

1. Thousands of pieces of slate - reclaimed roofing tiles

2. 400+ usable pieces of acrylic

3. Dozens of clean and blank, ready for engraving wood boxes

4. Dozens of oak and maple finished boards i picked up for a very good price

5. I laser engrave rocks so I pick up ones that will work for me and also when I encounter items at the swap meet

6. A bunch of flat faced whiskey bottles and decanter

7. Sheets of EVA foam for a client's projects i keep on hand

I hit the swap meet weekly to find new material I can use for my work. The process is never ending. Its half the fun, finding deals on material.

Recently came into a huge cache of acrylic - most of it is cast. I have been making LED edge lit signs. I have a small amount of extruded acrylic in the stash and tried to apply a design to one and the results were less than what the cast acrylic results are.

Are the extruded pieces a wash? What can I do with them?

The tree of life piece is the extruded acrylic. It came out way more cloudy and not as crisp as anything on the cast acrylic. It isnt a huge amount of extruded acrylic, but I would like to figure out what I can use it for.

I came up on a huge cache of cast acrylic in these sizes. Hundreds of these sheets.

I worked out costs.

LED base: $5

Acrylic canvas: $.23 [less than a quarter]

Each design takes between 4-6 minutes to score and cut.

Running these on xtool P2.

Figure it can sell for between $10-$12.

This can work out.

I make more of these every week.

Im not sure how I arrived at this solution, but it totally works.

Making sails.

I also do a version on slate that customers go crazy over. Its an absolute attention grabber from fans. I have a bunch sitting in inventory. I usually take 2-3 with me to any sale situation. Feedback is amazing on it.
