I know it has been quite a while since my last post, but I have been very busy {as most people are :) }. I will get to answering the ton of emails in my inbox soon, as well as writing new posts.
This month I got the awesome experience of going on a business trip to Las Vegas for the 2012 Consumer Electronics Show. My company was there launching our new Cubify.com platform and Cube 3D printer.
The show was a blast! Our new products were a hit and our booth was packed the entire time. I can’t even begin to count how many people I spoke with in the booth, I was pretty much loosing my voice by the fourth day of the show lol.
I didn’t have too much time to see all of the rest of the show due to the constant stream of people in our booth. The size of the crowds at this show were wayy larger than the crowds at the Maker Faire’s I have had booths at in the past. Helpful hint when working a trade show; always keep tons of water and throat lozenges around.
For the holiday’s I designed and printed out a ton of Snowman bottle openers to hand out to friends and family.

Back view, I inserted a penny into each one for prying off the bottle caps. Also on the back it says: "Winter 2011"
I did not print all of them at the same time. I printed them either 6 or 9 at a time in series.
