Default First real AirGraver project

Ok, got my AirGraver a few weeks ago and did wind up winning it (Thanks Steve!)

Been practicing and fiddling with it a bit and this is the first real project I did with it.

I started with my Box O' Happiness - the fully portable system and finished up on my bench with my microscope. That and the saw were the only things not in the Box that I used for this.

It's a 'scrap' pendant - where I take a scrap left over from something else and use it to make something new. This one's a double scrap - the hole in it is from the first one of these that I did.

Things went great! The AirGraver is doing everything I ask it to, even if sometimes I don't ask right. So far the only 'problem' I've had is I've found that I sometimes get my fat finger right over the holes when I roll the graver to the right. That puts it in 'short stroke' mode which is not (usually) what I want. Need to practice not doing that.
