Someone let me use their 80 Watt Trotec laser cutter to cut more "hat" tessellation tiles for our EXQUISITE TESSELLATION Print project:

 

56 new "hat" tiles

cut from 8 sheets

The owner rearranged the "hat" shapes so that we could cut 7 out of a 12x18 inch piece of linoleum (whereas I was only getting four "hats" before):

It only took 3 minutes to cut all 7 linocuts from one sheet, and that was with two passes:

• Ellie is going to order four picture frames for the tessellation prints online at PICTUREFRAMES
