Dreams really do come true! After many years using the laser cutters at Chimera Maker's Space, we are officially leveling up! Today we ordered our dream laser cutter/engraver. This OMTech Pronto 75 is a 150 Watt laser with a 40'x63' bed and lots of extras. It's a bad ass machine and we can't wait to add it to our creative workshop at WonderWorks.

If you're in the market for a laser, OMTech is extending their Black Friday discounts until December 2nd. Join the club!

I'm so grateful to have incredible clients that believe in our creative vision to build WonderWorks Fabrication into a design and fabrication powerhouse. It's been so fulfilling to feel the support of these tremendous brands at Hall of Flowers this year. It's going to be a great expo and we hope to see you there!

Briona Darling and I have been busy at WonderWorks Fabrication dialing-in our clients for Hall of Flowers this week. We designed the booth for CCELL which is being fabricated and installed by the amazing folks at ZNC. We also designed & fabricated a beautiful farm stand booth for Jetty Extracts and we can't wait for you to see it! It's been really nice to work with reclaimed wood and put our plasma CNC to the test.

Thanks to our amazing clients who are supporting our new fabrication, arts, design & retail display business. Getting a family-owned brick and mortar creative workshop started during these challenging times takes a lot of dedication, hard work and support from our client community.

We'll be posting more photos of how the final booths came out after the show. Stay tuned!

After a bit of time getting it dialed, our CNC plasma cutter is now in full action and we're having a blast with it. There's nothing like having a light saber on a robot arm to inspire creative ideas!

Sonoma County friends! Briona and I are designing and fabricating a trade show booth with a rustic farmer's market vibe. I'm looking to buy a bunch of old apple boxes to turn into shelving. Does anyone know where we might find some in West County? Also looking for aged wood. Let me know!

Late night thoughts on WonderWorks. I took my buddy Damian Peters to the shop last night and saw the inspiration in his eyes. Came home and wrote this:

WonderWorks is so interesting to me…

We are trying to create something, what it is I’m not sure yet. What I do know is that we have tremendous potential at our fingertips. We have 3500 ft.² of space we’ve gathered incredible tools to manufacture and fabricate metal, wood and Construct whatever we want. Wait till you see it!

We’re going to put together an open house event soon… stay tuned.

What becomes of the space is not entirely up to us. It depends on the community that sees the resource that we’ve started. If they embrace it and see the vision that we have in our minds, then, hopefully, it could become a reality.

We do not care to be a shop that just produces parts and random things, although we’ll do plenty of that. We’d rather not produce cogs in a wheel… Moreover, we want to create that important piecee that inspires. We could create the entire sculpture, or we could just produce that one missing object that you really needed to continue your own inspired project. It doesn’t matter. As long as we were part of the inspiration.

The potential we have in our hands is incredible. Does the community exist to help this dream come to life? Time will tell.

We've been working on a pretty sweet fabrication project. Can you guess what we're creating? Full process and installation video coming soon. Stay tuned!
