Iguanadon Posted September 20, 2020 Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 I've been getting orders like crazy for custom wording, business logos, etc. And now that I'm getting more comfortable with doing images with the laser engraver, these will be the new "standard" set I'll offer for my beach town and any others that I do events at in the future. I have 3 holiday markets in Nov/Dec so I'll be sure to have plenty on hand. Just more silly Iggy whackiness. meflick, Woodrush, GrampaJim and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
don in brooklin on Posted September 20, 2020 Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 The lasering really sets these apart. Very cool. How long does the laser take and are you getting any over burn? I looked at these little lasers and did not know it would be so clean. Maybe time to look again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Don, I've been very impressed with the quality of the end product from a simple $190 laser. The one drawback is the speed. Depending on the image or the amount of lettering it can take 10-15 minutes. That being said though, they have a new motherboard for my laser that will cut the speed in half or even one third and it only costs $49. I'm on the waiting list to get one to try it out. Mine is the NEJE Master 3500. The woman that sells them on this site is fabulous as she'll get on the phone with you when you receive it and walk you through the setup and a test. https://nmclasers.com/shop/ols/categories/laser-engraver Edited September 20, 2020 by Iguanadon meflick 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iguanadon Posted September 20, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 Oh, and here's a closeup of one of the logos I did, even the tiny print is readable. (Coastal Select Properties along the top) jbrowning and danny 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockytime Posted September 20, 2020 Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 How do you do the drilling? It appears you have done a great and exacting job. Does your drill utilize a laser pointer? They look great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a pattern I'm going by, just drilling 1 at a time, 15 times on my drill press... danny, new2woodwrk, jbrowning and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockytime Posted September 22, 2020 Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 Talk about mass production! Impressive. I see Cracker Barrel showing those on their commercials. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
