Very nice collection well worth consideration. Do you design most of your stuff for fine cuts or regular?

Thank you martyy. My designs are intended for everyone, so fine cut consumables are not required. Also, where tolerance is concerned I tend to give a little more room than necessary.

Thanks Ben, for others I think many of these could be easily used on a laser for etching and cutting on other mediums like wood or MDF if your into laser art work. The police and fire badges collection could be modified to fit you local departments for awards or donations for thanks to them.
have fun

Excellent suggestions Tom! Thank you for pointing that out.

I can certainly draw great art files using DesignEdge, but that is not what floats my boat. I like to work with my hands, to fix things, or build things, or modify things. The software is easy, and drawing with DesignEdge is certainly easy. However, I leave that stuff to the people who really ENJOY drawing.

I do enjoy drawing files, no doubt about it. I don't suppose a lot of people know because I don't really say anything but I've been a fabricator for 30+ years. I joined the USAF in '89 and became a journeyman aircraft metals technology specialist. There I discovered I loved working metal and built a nice foundation for later in life, primarily as a CMC installing the commercial kitchen vent hoods I designed and manufactured all over the southeastern U.S.

Drawing files didn't enter the picture until around '07. Man what a learning curve that was! With more practice than I'd like to admit I found that I really did enjoy it too. Physical limitations ensure I don't get nearly as much shop time as I'd like, however I've found that by applying the same level of OCD found in my 'hand work' to my CAD work I'm at peace with that I suppose.
