🪓 Engraving a Viking Axe -
This design is inspired from the video game, God of War.
I used a brush and painted on some acrylic then use a pencil to put in the runic inscriptions.

I am using the @scmengraving 400xs to engrave.

The first tomahawk that started Cornelius Creations.

It was so humbling to see the first one I made for someone. I honestly had mixed emotions. I instantly thought: “Matt! What were you thinking???”

Then I started smiling knowing that I put in the time and hard work to improve myself. Even when it cost me countless hours and a drained bank account at times.

I remember when I first watched the movie: The Patriot with Mel Gibson. I watched it over and over and became obsessed with the: Captain Benjamin Martin Tomahawk.

I kept pausing the DVD to try to mimic the designs of this Hawk as I was using a pencil to draw on the handle. Although not perfect, I was happy with it at the time.

Fast forwarding to present day this serves as a humble reminder that skills must be worked on.

When you feel that “hit” or inspiration towards something, that often times not than not is a good indication that you have a “gift” for that thing which inspires you. It’s a compass that is pointing you True North if you learn to listen.

Art is more about Intuition more than logic. Logic is INVOLVED, but intuition steers the ship.

Develop that gift into a skill, then use that skill to serve the world.

Almost 20 years of creating content, and I still haven’t figured out how to make a 10-minute video without spending 20 hours on it. 😂🎥

Here’s a little behind the scenes of filming my latest EufyMake E1 video. Shoutout to my @vyper and @studiotitanamerica for making these long filming days a little easier.

And my cat, who contributes absolutely nothing.

These two tomahawks have a lot of meaning behind them.

One was made for a local Police Chief, carrying the Thin Blue Line. The other went to a member of the Arkansas National Guard, carrying the red, white, and blue.

Similar design. Two completely different stories.

This is still some of my favorite work to do. There is something about taking a piece of wood and steel and turning it into something that actually represents the person receiving it.

Proud of how these two turned out.

A Dirty Lens Is Ruining Your Laser Engraving (Easy Fix)

If your laser suddenly seems weaker, less consistent, or just isn’t producing the results it used to, a dirty lens might be the culprit.

Here is how I clean the lens on my xTool F2 Ultra using a Zeiss lens wipe. This same method works on many other lasers as well.

A few seconds of maintenance can save you a lot of frustration.

🎮 Have you ever seen a laser print Mario in full color? 👀🔥

This is one of the coolest things I have ever watched. The detail is absolutely insane.
