I don't want any of what they're smoking.

I laser burned a hex tile ceramic glazed bathroom tile (Mexico).
I thought they would make nice coasters. Thing is they are pretty
brittle and scratch surfaces the unfinished side of the tiles touch.
So I made a 3D printed cradle for the hex tile to sit in.

So now I have coasters that are so huge that nobody would serve
guests using them. So I decide that they are "man sized" coffee cup
coasters. I could probably sell that. But nobody would pay that much
for a personalized laser burned tile and cradle... or would they?

Maybe huge coasters will become a man cave fad... or not. :-)

Maybe stick them on Etsy and see what happens. Market research like
that is free.

It takes ten hours just to print one. Another couple hours for
each laser burn session too. Maybe if I had a second printer I could
print things 24/7 on one and do one-off protos on the other. I'd
have to get $30 each for them at this point.

What is the business model for dancing dog robots?

Father Brown's figure remained quite dark and still;
but in that instant he had lost his head. His head was
always most valuable when he had lost it.

Maybe there is one. I wouldn't have thought that Twitch streaming
gamers could make millions and millions of dollars each. Or that NFTs
would sell for a fortune.

Intel sells 500+ drone light shows for $300k+

https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/technology-innovation/intel-drone-light-shows.html

You'd have to think that an in-person dancing robot dog (or ice
skating robot dog) performance would be pretty noisy though. They
would probably just crank the music up to ear-splitting level.

People are snapping them up at $75k each plus for options.
