There's a lot of value and importance to making things by hand, and I love doing so, but I don't think that everyone can make a living that way. I'm struggling to find a balance between the values of handmade and the practicality of manufacturing as both a designer and a teacher. So for my new collection, I'm also exploring small, local manufacturing options like laser cutting.
They're just the start of the objects in my new collection. (And no, I'm still not telling you what they are.)

were they laser cut bent? or bent after cut?
thanks!
they were bent after cutting - but the place i use can also laser cut tube
Those are gorgeous!!! They almost look like cuffs :)
nice. I need to learn how to properly bend metal. We cut out some of our bracelets from brass to test out making a metal version but our metal bending skills leaving something to be desired and we ended up with sharp angles
Wahoo! I hope they are trashcans:)
