Ways to raise money

[Cotton]

I’ve played around with a few lasers, the latest being the xTool laser. The problem with the hobbyist level lasers are they just aren’t powerful enough to really etch harder materials. Then to compound things they are slow.

That being said I like where you are going with it.

One of the guys I know just spent 10 grand on a laser. Not really wanting to invest that kind of money.

I am impressed. You took time away from the party boat and the hookers to provide a little insight.

Again, I hate asking for donations, so was trying to think of other ways to raise funds.

The antiqued/distressed look works well, the grain becomes part of it. Good job on the fonts.

Thanks, boys. We have figured out birch wood works best. It ain't cheap but it burns the best.

Birch might be a bit pricy because it gets used in a lot of finish plywood. Another one with nice grain depending on where in the tree it comes from is red oak, similar hardness. There are places where you can buy craft boards online, I used this one now and then.

Try doing an image search for red oak grain.

You need to stop playing with it. You’ll go blind.

Still playing with it and the vision is getting a little blurry.

@iamtdg how would the five SB logos translate? 27 seems like it would be sweet

We couldn't do the colors obviously, but that would work.

So, take guesses at what we are doing...

This one is going to be badass. Thank you to @data for the idea.

Best SB I ever watched.

@data thank you for the suggestion.

Super Bowl championships are such ancient history, I'd buy shrooms if you want to raise some money.
