This Has Been.....
.....A very busy weekend for KookieKuttersWoodworks. I've pretty well decided I will be setting up a vendor booth for this year's Christmas time event. Since I've got my new laser up and running, I have been playing a little catch up on a sign project that was requested just as my old laser died on me.

A Brand New Site and A Brand New Laser
This is the first entry for my new website. I've been working hard on putting it together and I think it's finally ready to be shared. So, you might ask what's happening at KookieKuttersWoodworks. Great things, that's what's happening, great things. I recently had issues with my laser and I decided to play the "buy once, cry once" game and I have purchased a new Thunder Nova Plus 35 CO2 Laser. I can't wait to get it here and put it to work making projects for all the wonderfu
