About us: We run an online Etsy shop where we sell mostly laser cut goods and files. At first, our business was mainly crochet and knitwear, but in 2020 we pivoted to strictly laser cutting. We really like the infinite possibilities laser cutting brings, and also enjoy coming up with my own unique designs. 😊 ----------

Your logo sign turned out great Catherine! I saw it in your "year end" video & was hoping you'd do a video on how you made it; so thank you. I love the shelving units on either side of the sign. That whole space for chats & intros is so cool, love the vibe! Btw, PLEASE keep the Christmas files in your shop for awhile longer; I haven't been able to purchase the files I want yet. Soon!! *Also, yes, being a natural body builder is HARD WORK. (That was my plan in my much younger years. OMG, when Joe & Betty Weider introduced Muscle & Fitness Hers magazine I was OBSESSED!!) Your subscribers who have gotten to know you both over the past couple of years are proud of Brandon's dedication & love of the sport. Those who "know" you both know that's a huge part of your lives & you should be very proud of it because it's not easy. We love seeing clips of family & business life; it makes people on the other side of the screen more relatable. Kudos to you both for building the family, life, & business you've both worked so hard for!!

Wow thanks so much Nicole! All of our files will remain in our digital file Etsy exclusive shop for a long while! And thanks I appreciate the comments on my bodybuilding. Like you said, those who "know" really get it. Thanks for the continued support as always-Brandon

Great sign Catherine , Are you guys still using your GlowForge? Is your new Thunder in an attached garage? And last question, how has your learning curve been and are you using Lightburn as your design process? Thank you if you have a chance to reply. I’ve been watching your business grow for a while now and I must say, your video presentations are so much more relaxed from when you first started. Wishing you guys a very successful and Blessed year.

[@85thandPine]

Thank you so much for all the kind words. We appreciate you following us for so long! To answer your questions… -Yes we still use our Glowforge. -Our Thunder is now in our basement and vents out a 6” exhaust port through our wall. -the learning curve with Thunder took longer than Glowforge since there’s more controls to it and the settings are different. But, now that we are comfortable with Thunder it is definitely much easier than what I initially thought. I use Lightburn just to import my files to print them from Lightburn but I still use Inkscape to edit or design any files since it’s just much easier for me. Best wishes to you!!

Great!

As always, I love your work and learn something from every video. Will you please share the link to the 3M tape that you use? It looks like the tape is very expensive, so perhaps I am not looking at the correct product.

[@85thandPine]

Hi Joe! I either buy it from Adhesive Ninja on Facebook (he doesn’t have a link to specific products) or crazylaserdad.com

[@joeknight8263]

@@85thandPine Thank you Catherine. Crazylaserdad is sold out but I’ll keep checking.

Really enjoy your videos and the content you and your husband provide. However, the intro with your husband in a speedo just seems out of place and odd. I come for laser crafting content and bam! dude in a banana hammock, then back to wholesome family on the beach.

[@85thandPine]

Our intro is a collection of clips from our personal and professional lives. My husband is a professional natural bodybuilder and that’s something we’re all proud of and it’s a representation of his hard work and success which is what we try to emulate through our videos. If you don’t like it, skip through it.

@@85thandPine Its your channel and content. Just providing some feedback. Thanks for all your hard work.

Looks great. The black on red oak works well together. I can see new projects on the way using the LED lighting

@@davidelder5399 Thanks David! I think it turned out great too!
