Finding joy in Creation
“..if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.”

It’s been close to 30 years since I’ve used a lathe…so I’m pretty pumped to finally have one in my shop! This lathe is exactly what I was looking for…cheap, compact, and still strong enough to knock out the projects I want to do. It’s hard to find one with this capacity without spending a lot of money, so this is a great way to jump in and see if turning is something I’ll do more of. I know my son has been wanting to make custom bats for a while, so he is pretty excited too!

If you want to try one out for yourself, check out the link below!

I haven’t done any kerf tests with the Thunder yet, so finally downloaded this test file and gave it a try. To be honest, there were no instructions so I’m not really sure what I was supposed to learn from it. I defaulted to good old trial and error next, and used a simple box joint to do some test fitting. I landed on .006 which gives a nice snug fit. I’ll stick with that for now 😂

Impromptu laser sesh with the kids today. Starting to teach them a little more of the process. Material selection, measuring dimensions…basic setup steps in LightBurn, and how to fire up the machine! Baby steps now, but they’ll prob be able to run this show before I know it! 😂

I’ve had a few roller stands in the shop over the years, but they have all been light duty and I usually end up adding weight to them so they don’t get knocked over. This heavy duty stand is much heavier and uses a tripod so it’s super solid. I love the ability to fine tune the height too..really simple and secure.

First brass coin in the books! 🔥🪙

I’ve been wanting to try engraving brass, so I put the F2 Ultra 60W MOPA laser to the test by turning my son’s baseball team logo into a custom challenge coin. Pretty cool being able to take something meaningful to the family and turn it into a physical keepsake!

The detail and quality this machine produces are seriously impressive, and the speed makes the whole process even better. Getting crisp, clean detail on brass like this is a whole new level of fun in the shop.

And shoutout to the P2 exhaust system! It does a fantastic job pulling smoke and fumes away from the work area, keeping the workspace cleaner while I’m engraving.

This is just the beginning. I’ve got a feeling there are going to be a LOT more laser projects coming out of the shop! 👊
