So...apparently #Monday this week, falls on a Thursday.. I had some issues with an #engraving today. I got the order done, but I'm still not sure why this happened 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️ i guess we get a new #kitchenknife ... https://www.instagram.com/p/CCb6R7vF7BL/?igshid=15a5i5cgfk95

Another update, another BIG day for us, this was our package run Monday morning. #BBQ sets are taking off this year for #FathersDay (at Moses Lake, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBRkfa6DLuI/?igshid=qp0wn5j5cu7i

Haven't posted in a while, and you wouldn't know it, but i spent over 5 hours doing #maintenance on this #LaserCutter yesterday, and it's still not perfect. Most of that time was lining up the mirrors. You know those #TreasureHunter #movies, where they have to line up a series of mirrors to activate a #SecretPassage? Yeah, well that but 100x more of a #pain in the butt. I seriously want to just design a system for my #machine that takes advantage of #CNC to control the mirrors, and align them for me. I haven't looked, however I'm sure that's incorporated into larger, more expensive units. Would be so nice. https://www.instagram.com/p/CBRkBfTlYkc/?igshid=1i0nvmnkkkiv2

#Custom #Engraved #BBQ set for an #IBEW member. A little cleanup after the #laser engraving, and it's back to that #Beautiful finish. (at Moses Lake, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAEyChMljMi/?igshid=9idoxftun9pt

What are you up to while the #stayathome order is still in place? I have #Templates for the #olsonmaskpattern shipping like crazy today. So I'm packing the orders while my #LaserCutter is #working on making more, just so i can keep up. You can find these #Mask templates on my #EtsyStore there's a FB product link in the video, that ultimately takes you to my #Etsy store also. These templayes are great if you use a #RotaryCutter for your #Fabric cutting, and will increase your ability to accurately, quickly, pump out the parts of your #Patterns so you can get to actually #Sewing you #Masks sooner.

Forgot to post this the other day, but this was our last big #PostOffice run. I'm slowly beginning to realize we may need our own mail truck by next year lol. We had a day that we forgot to snag a picture like this one, except it was 8 packages #shipped while this was "only" 6. I say one thing, we're keeping #usps busy.

The #new #acrylic #templates for the #olsonmaskpattern Getting the scale right wasn't very straightforward but #WorthIt since these are the masks hospitals, doctors, and #nurses are asking to be donated now. I'm keeping my pricing low for all the mask templates I'm making. (at Moses Lake, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_jI61pDPXe/?igshid=gjhitslmhn8w

Just a few #orders for the #simplefacemask #pattern #templates going to the #postoffice today. I have another #patterntemplate for #facemasks in the works right now, should have that one done by tonight, and probably a few cut from #acrylic and #readytogo It's the #design that #hospitals are requesting specifically, and fits the face much better. Those will be headed to the #navajonation which makes me feel great to be able to help. Stay posted, there's more to come, and don't forget to follow my page and #zaplabs (at Moses Lake, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_ijtk_DWFV/?igshid=3btyk5569s7c

Enjoy this short, #hypnotic clip of my laser engraver #PuttingInWork Pardon the #focus issue. The product link will take you to another product in my shop because this one is #SoldOut . The link takes you to my most recent #PersonalFavorite that is in stock 🔥 This is a very #vibrant carving #knife, that i can no longer order. I of course #engrave my products in house, on my #lasercutter but for my #cutlery i rely on the great #SupplyChain to provide me with those products. Unfortunately this particular set i can no longer find anywhere. They are super #sharp, with a handle that is absolutely amazing. When i got them in the first time i almost kept them for myself 💗 so it will be sad to see this one go 🥺 Though exciting that I'm nearly through the remaining parts of this set. The only one left is the bread knife!! Lol! I'll probably get stuck with that.. 🤷‍♂️ https://www.instagram.com/p/B_OzxepjRgU/?igshid=1e1lwj1f57728

Been years since I've played with #SketchUp #CAD, and almost as long since I've framed walls. I'm prepping for a mild #remodel of my basement, and want to be absolutely sure my material counts are correct. This isn't an exact model, but it's close enough. I'm more concerned about doing the #drywall than anything. Intimidates more more than #electrical #zaplabs #basementremodel #renovation #diylife (at Moses Lake, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-_F4T9jc5T/?igshid=1ps1avxq73j76

This is a sales from a couple weeks ago, part of a #personalized #bbq set. Once the residue is cleaned off they look great. (at ZapLabs) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-3AIA2DgGE/?igshid=9bf562zgvgxv

New patterns stencil for #facemask sewing. For any of the #seamstressesofinstagram out there #sewing up facemasks for friends, family, and customers, this is a great solution to speed up your #fabric processing. Solid #acrylic templates allow you to run your #rotarycutter or #exactoknife along the edge of the #pattern for quick and consistent fabric parts. I've cut my materials based prices approximately 20% on this pattern, and will do so for other products related to the madness currently taking place. I will have the product direct link up shortly, awaiting FB approval. I have another #design in the pipeline right now as well, that has significantly simpler steps, as it's one single shape. If you're interested in getting your own patterns made into acrylic #stencils send me a message. (at Moses Lake, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-02Oj2Du5j/?igshid=1c1nandmm1jo

How did you spend your #Tuesday ? We spent several hours #working in the yard today, hitting up some #springcleaning clippings down some of these #junipers , making sure all my yard machines are in working order with strong, clean engines. ✅ #RidingMower ✅ #ChainSaw ✅ #Choretruck (s) ✅ #lawnmowed ✅ #Trees trimmed ✅ #RakedLeaves Up next: ☑ #BurnPile / #BonFire ☑ #DumpRun ☑ Get the dang #WeedWacker running ☑ Finally get around to #Fixing the #Fence ???

Another #bbq set sold. #Custom engraved on my #laser cutter at #zaplabs and shipped out the next morning. #Springtime is here, and if you can't go out for a big gathering with friends, you can still stay home for a #family bbq.

So this is what i decided on. #darkwalnut #stain name, with a #farmhouse white painted backer. @ashleychart1991 likes it a lot. Gave it a temporary home in the living room. Have a bigger one gluing up, different orientation, different #plywood, and i had to modify the design just a bit. (at ZapLabs) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9IojCpD_5A/?igshid=1o6estet3yx9l

May do some more work, #paint and or a backdrop/frame to this tomorrow. One of the many things i have put off doing for far to long. Need to sort out which fonts work out best for pre processing the #vectors that the #lasercutter uses. This particular font, while absolutely #Beautiful looking, was quite a fair bit of work to get to work properly. I'm sure there's a step or program i can use to help, but i haven't looked yet. Hopefully I'll have an #update on these for you all tomorrow, may even have the sales page for it ready to go. #zaplabs #etsysellersofinstagram #makersgonnamake #customsigns #lasercutting #plywoodart #Washington #Washington #customgifts (at Moses Lake, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9Dyy1KjmOz/?igshid=eqi6x8xdx0eh
