Keychain Thing

This is a key chain that I made from fancy wood that I got from Dr. Urbano. First, I took the Japanese character from Google and outlined traced it. Then I overlapped the traced image over the original and shaped it to match the original (because it was slightly off from the outline). Then, I took off the access material using the sander. This part took a little time because I had to eyeball the thickness and try to make a perfect circle around the character.

For the metal piece on top I used a screw thing I found in the laser/vinyl cutting room. I then drilled a hole through it using the drill press. I had to put the metal screw in a clamp and then firmly hold it on the drill press plate. I drilled the hole with a very small drill pit for a pilot hole and then I used a larger one.
