Progress Pictures

My original photo for project 1, a photo of an aurora taken on
an iPhone with night mode.

First attempt for project 2, a much larger piece of wood that
the laser printer failed to cut through all of the way. The
smaller pieces of the face made it pretty much impossible to
go in and cut afterwards as well.

A screenshot of the Adobe Illustrator file used to tell the
laser cutter where to cut, engrave, and raster!
