Peace Sign Light: Weekend Project, Day One Update

So yesterday we got started on my Peace Sign Light Project. First we tried to figure out how to lay the rope light out…

My Father Being Funny Trying to Figure out How to Wrap the Lights Hehe. Wish "Dork" Was In Focus...

Then we decided that it was a losing battle until we had an actual peace sign to work with. So we took the widest part of the wood and made a circle that big:

Drawing the Circle The Finished Circle

Then we started drawing the peace sign…at which point I took out my iPod Touch for reference and my father claimed that he'd seen a lot of peace signs and he knew what he was doing because he was, "a child of the 60s". I'm not going to argue with that…

Then he started cutting it out:

Cutting the Outer Edge Cutting the Outer Edge
More Cutting... Still Cutting...

And then he proceeded to cut through the table...

One Section Complete!
One Section Complete!
Oops!! Cut the Table. Good thing we were throwing this out.

After we got all of the sections cut, we realized one very sad thing…

Oops, We did it Wrong…(Hence the Sad Face)

It was crooked!!

Okay, so we drew the arms wrong…but at least we know that when we do it the second time it'll be perfect!

Take Two!

Stay tuned for more pictures of the same thing!
