Laser Cut Leather Inbound
Got a call from RMS Laser today to let me know that my leather samples are cut and are being sent out. They will be here sometime early next week. Cool!

Leather and Lasers
No, that is not the name of a new superhero movie, though I am kinda diggin' it.
I had a phone call with my friends over at RMS Laser the other day about getting a couple of samples cut for the Micro-S pattern for the boot. The plan is to have them cut a bock of leather, which I will then mold and cast in urethane. This will allow me a great deal of flexibility in my construction techniques, and will also make it so that I can crank out more than one pair if necessary.
Mary is going to cut three different samples for me. Apparently, the laser can be set to etch at three different depths. I have asked for one sample of each. Once the samples arrive and I pick the one I like, I will move on to getting the enitre sheet cut.
In other news, I am on day 44 of P90X. Trying to get into "super" shape for next halloween. Get it? Super? Ah, sometimes I crack myself up.

River Song Sonic Screwdriver
Another neat little addition to my prop collection today, a River Song sonic screwdriver from the new Doctor Who series.
This is another one of the great little toys brought to you by a company called "Character Options" out of the UK. Honestly, for the price, these things are just amazing. Each of the releases from this company fail to disappoint, and deliver a very nice little piece for just a few bucks.
Granted, it is not metal, and it has a few soft details, but overall, it's a very nice representation of what was seen on screen. It has a couple different sounds, and the emitter can change from blue to red. Pretty cool.
I got mine in Amazon, if you are interested in getting one for yourself.
