Afternoon,
I'm an avid photographer, wood turner and pen maker. I've got 3 workshops, and in one (clean!) shop sits a co2 laser (Omtech polar +) - quite new and somewhat underused as of now.
Why? - oh thanks for asking. We are looking after a Guide Dog puppy, who's been with us for 3 weeks and the laser arrived 3 weeks and 2 days ago.... not much time spent with the laser but lots with the puppy.
What's his name? Hey thanks for asking..... its Conker. Now laughing is not a good response.... really not. Seriously he's sponsored by the Conker Society for the duration of his time as a Guide Dog, and they got the choice of naming him.
What sort of dog is he? Hey you're very interested..... he's a German Shepherd cross with a Golden Labrador - known as a Golden Shepherd.
My other two workshops (dirty!) house a couple of lathes and other bits.
My first laser was an xTool D1 - bought in 2021. Well used for engraving pens and such like.
So that's me.
Regards,
Chriscb
