[andrew Szeto]

That's exciting! Would anyone care to teach a quick workshop on how that thing works? Would be stoked to learn and see it in action sometime...

Cheers,
Andrew

This means you would either have to get a very fancy laser cutter, or flatten the skull or antlers. From: Lab [mailto:lab-bounces at artengine.ca] On Behalf Of Henri Kuschkowitz

Subject: Re: [Lab] leather and laser oh that would be cool.  Where would you get the antlers? i’d love to do/have some to experiment. i have seen some interesting painted designs on cow skulls as well recently but got to figure out where to get some to experiment with.

I was actually looking into something related, cutting into deer antlers.
