At Obrary, we’re creating a library of open designs. You can see it at <a href="http://obrary.com/collections/open-designs" target="_blank">http://obrary.com/collections/open-designs</a>. We currently focused on designs that are made from a CNC Router or Laser Cutter. Please browse our library and download any designs that you are interested in making. If you do make one, please post a photo of it in the forums. Also, please send me an email if you would like to add a design of yours to the library.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">Feedback welcome.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">Thanks!</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:12.0pt;margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><b>Scott Austin</b></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">President and Co-Founder, <a href="http://obrary.com/" target="_blank">Obrary</a></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">+ 1 619 356 1465</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/obrary" target="_blank"><span style="text-decoration:none"><img border="0" width="30" height="30" id="Picture_x0020_1" src="getcid.hsp?_h=31a24bbdd3bc686532ff2f226edf5ae7&fid=48_1107&mid=3692&bid=0&cid=1" alt="02_facebook"></span></a> <a href="https://twitter.com/theobrary" target="_blank"><span style="text-decoration:none"><img border="0" width="30" height="30" id="Picture_x0020_2" src="getcid.hsp?_h=31a24bbdd3bc686532ff2f226edf5ae7&fid=48_1107&mid=3692&bid=0&cid=2" alt="01_twitter"></span></a> <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/obrary" target="_blank"><span style="text-decoration:none"><img border="0" width="30" height="30" id="Picture_x0020_3" src="getcid.hsp?_h=31a24bbdd3bc686532ff2f226edf5ae7&fid=48_1107&mid=3692&bid=0&cid=3" alt="13_pinterest"></span></a> <a href="http://instagram.com/obrary" target="_blank"><span style="text-decoration:none"><img border="0" width="30" height="30" id="Picture_x0020_4" src="getcid.hsp?_h=31a24bbdd3bc686532ff2f226edf5ae7&fid=48_1107&mid=3692&bid=0&cid=4" alt="10_instagram"></span></a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7kAQIu-w0u8SUpycwpfh9Q" target="_blank"><span style="text-decoration:none"><img border="0" width="30" height="30" id="Picture_x0020_5" src="getcid.hsp?_h=31a24bbdd3bc686532ff2f226edf5ae7&fid=48_1107&mid=3692&bid=0&cid=5" alt="03_youtube"></span></a> <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/3586178" target="_blank"><span style="text-decoration:none"><img border="0" width="30" height="30" id="Picture_x0020_6" src="getcid.hsp?_h=31a24bbdd3bc686532ff2f226edf5ae7&fid=48_1107&mid=3692&bid=0&cid=6" alt="07_linkedin"></span></a></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""> </span></p></div></body></html>
