I can't even begin to tell you how long I've wanted to offer a wooden crown set.  I've tried a half a dozen different ways to bend, cut, scream, cry and bend some more to get wood to work.  But it hasn't worked.  Until now....and my Laser cutter.  (Remind me to tell you later about the home-made pressure cooker/more like a homemade bomb lookin' thing my Father-in-law made for me to try try and get wood strips soft enough to bend!) You see, the laser beam, itself, has some width to it.  Just like a saw blade.  So when it...

The kids don't start back to school until Tuesday..but I'm thoroughly ready to get back into our usual schedule.  So I'm getting a jump start on the week.  But before I start posting pictures of crowns and fun jewelry later this week, I have to show/tell you this.
