Butterfly Pin Project, Plans

A recent project from Betty Barrett and Bob McGrath.

This is simple plastic "jewelry", laser-cut in acryllic (see image). 

The butterfly is orginally from a website (http://www.malindarogers.com) which has many drawings that could be used for similar projects.

The project is explained in a document [PDF].

QR Code for this web site

Learning how to make and use QRCodes--here is a QRCode for the URL for this web site.  When you scan it, you get cucfablab.org.

This code can be put on handouts and posters, etc.

Also, download the PNG and put it on stuff you make.  Who knows how well it will work, say, etched onto the tail of a dinosaur, but we can find out.
