5/11-5/14

At the start of the week, Bella and I drilled in the new brackets for the word clock. The new brackets are more sturdier. Everything was well until we got to the bracket next to the metal bar. There was no room for us to screw and place the bracket in. Bella has to make a new model the counter this. In the meantime, I was working on my engraving gifts. I cut out and sanded a couple. I didn't get to applying wood finisher but plan on completing a couple before the weekend. They all turned out well and the little legs I made to support them work nicely. I was able to cut out seven and sand them by Thursday.

I also tested out some of them with their stands by using tape. I really liked how they turned out. I believe they look amazing. I used the laser-cutter to cut out all of the remaining legs so then I wouldn't waste time for the other engravings I need to do. Before I apply finisher, I need to dust them off so then none of the shavings from the sanding wouldn't ruin the look.
