    It's been a busy couple of weeks with business travel, wrapping up the 2020 version of the local advertising map of our island and I finally got a chance to play in the shop today. I made these items this morning as samples, imagining the Unicorn and T-Rex for kids rooms. The North Carolina item is something I made a couple of times before but thought it might look good as a key rack... Having fun with the laser burner. So far still only playing with text/wording to enhance and offer customization on my existing pieces.

    I was just goofing around with you. Most of those you showed are by another artist Jim Sweet aka Woodimals.

    Well, the problem is that the lettering in the dogs isn't a "font"... hand drawn by Harvey Byler. I understand what you're thinking though and I'll take a look to see if there's a font that is "softer" and would blend in with the general style in the body.

    I see non-Harvey patterns in the mix! How dare you!?!? LOL

    Thanks for letting us know Matt. I emailed Steve last week when I heard he was going to be doing a review and shared my video with him and he responded saying he liked his so far and would be doing the review video soon.

    Hey Jim, I'm still trying to figure out how to use this newfangled thing. LOL Getting the right intensity and laser beam time in milliseconds will come thru trial and error. Someone suggested to me to put masking tape to help with any shadowing. I haven't tried it. Still playing with intensity levels.

    Here is their website, scroll to the bottom for contact information they are in Anaheim. https://nmclasers.com/

    Nope, I got ya. I had no intention of doing it at events. I'm a one person operation and can't sell and burn. Besides, there is no way to have the sufficient inventory on hand of all dog breeds with bases. The new option of burned in names is cheaper for customers than the current option of having the names cut into the bodies. Simply adding an option... $25, $35 or $45, they choose how much they want to spend. Always appreciate thoughts and feedback, that's why I post ideas out here and state as such.

    Hey Melanie, The one I have is the model 3500, then it goes to the 7W and the 20W... so I think mine is literally half the strength of the 7W. I'm running it at only 25% intensity and it burns nicely into poplar, so should not be any trouble at all with harder woods if you turn it up a little. If not, go with the 7W which isn't a whole lot more money.

    Hey JT, I will have no problem at all describing the fact that my products are still 100% handmade with the option to have a custom name burned in, no different than using a branding iron. Not a single customer will have an issue with that. Extra $10 for a couple minutes of extra work and the fact that I charge customers for shipping of custom orders already means I'll still pocket plenty of extra cash to make it worth my while.

    LOL, haven't ordered the banner yet. Will have to decide whether to modify or stick with the fact that it's still "made" without lasers, simply customized with a name. No different than using a branding iron.

    Alright, here we go... Options for customers... Picture 1 - Standard Labrador Puzzle - $25 (as usual) Picture 2 - Puzzle with name in base - $35 (new offering) Picture 3 - Puzzle with name in body - $45 (as usual) Picture 4 - For the leash holders... I currently sell for $35 and will offer with a name lasered in for $45. What are your thoughts?

    Here's a test piece I did after the video, size 200 font for a dog name.
  15. Iguanadon
    My new toy... Lots of possible uses, starting with putting my website on pieces. I'll be cutting a couple of items tomorrow to test putting dog names on them...
  16. Iguanadon
    Nice cutting. Well done.
  17. Iguanadon
    I'm so proud... like a proud parent. Nice cutting sir.

    If you haven't already seen this video, the first 4 minutes shows what I do. The hard roller is what really makes sure everything is stuck to the board and to the laminate.

    LOL, it's at the top, I replaced the original photo with the updated version, but here it is for ya...

    I personally use Vistaprint. They're usually having a sale of some sort, but if not THANKS20 code gets you 20% off any time. Here is a photo of my booth. The unicorn banner and the one in the back are from Vistaprint. The one along the top of my tent is from somewhere else since VP didn't offer one that size.
  21. Iguanadon
    I just updated the photo with me "cutting"... Whatcha think?
  22. Iguanadon
    Duplicate response, Ignore.
  23. Iguanadon
    @wombatie @OzarkSawdust How about this?
  24. Iguanadon
    I'm still pondering the wording... NO CNC LASERS, etc came across is a bit harsh by some so I tried to soften it a little. We'll see what I end up with.
  25. Iguanadon
    I've thought about a snapshot of me cutting one, but then people will see the pattern on the wood... kind of takes the mystery out of it.
