my boss had bought one of those machines to try to do a little business on the side with but never got it to take off so now he's trying to sell it. he paid like 10,000 for it i think so i never got a chance to play around on it. are you doing them in just black and white or can you do color too? i know he had to send his out to get them colored. good luck with it, cant wait to see the products you come up with. how about some custom dash plates.

Well, we have 2 lasers. One costs a small fortune, and one costs a large fortune, lol. But, we have a leg up and are already successful so we know we can safely venture into new products/markets.

Custom dash plaques and pretty much anything you can imagine will be offered. We will be able to make improved stainless items with some customization via etching/marking, as well as composite items that are a little more flexible and they will be offered in a variety of color combinations, such as the thirdshiftstudios emblems, only better and MUCH more affordable.

We can etch in color, but we have to familiarize ourselves with it more.

I have to say that I was blown away when I saw what the black granite looked like when I saw etching on the surface.

I will also offer custom keychains of your vehicle. Just send me a picture, and I will do what you see on the tile above onto a piece of stainless steel that conforms to the position of your car.

Full-time student, Full-time dad, and Full-time work kick my **** .

I try to get on when I have the time, and it looks like I'll have some more free time to get on here a lot more. When I do the sponsor thing, I'll be on everyday, several times a day.

This post is not any intention to steal any business away from the original poster, just more to let people see what laser engraving is capable of. As he said, what these machines can do on black marble is insane. Before I got my engraver (probably similar to the one that cost the large fortune, as I could have bought a house in the south for what I payed for mine), I was blown away by what it could do. I tried to become a sponsor on here, but never got any response from the admins. Anyhow, here are some pictures of what I've done, the first is a 12"x12" marble tile, followed by a 6"x6" marble tile, then a 8.5x11 granite piece i did of my car.







Again, if you are planning to order something from the original poster, please order from him, as I don't want to be accused of stealing someones post, I really just wanted to get some examples up to support what he was saying.
