A few years ago, I had a business idea for canning-themed products that ultimately failed. I was left with some nice line art I had developed that I realized was prime for laser etching. Deciding to make lemonade out of my lemon, I put the artwork to good use by making some nice laser-etched magnets for our refrigerator.
