Ok, if you have a specific logo you can email it over to me so I could have it ready. Also put up some pictures, it wasn't working before.

how deep does it go in the various materials? and how long does it take for say a square inch of design?

what type of file (i assume monochrome) and what resolution to bring on a thumbstick

It is a CO2 laser so it etches metal, it engraves all other material.
I can set the speed and power for depth. But each material is different.

On time wise per square inch it also depends on speed and power and material.




The file you can email to me, it can be in color I see if I can make it usable for the laser.

nice!

scoutcamper 12-19-2013 9:20 AM

Will you work on the polymer lower once it has been completed to 100%?

hermosabeach 12-19-2013 9:28 AM

Do you have a web site that shows all of the logos you offer?

If we want to bring a logo- what format should the logo be? Gif, JPEG, pic

On what media? Cd, DVD, thumb drive?

Yes it would, it would have no effect on the internals.

I have a lot of logos, but if a logo looks good in black and white 90% of the time it would look good on the lowers.
You can bring it on any of those as I can open them all. It could be a JPEG, I do prefer it in a eps, png file but not every one has those. A PDF would also work.

If you wanted to email me a logo I can advise on how it would look. Also I clean every logo I use and just don't slap them on once I get them.

Wow, im in the market for some custom engraving for an ar lower, can you do color engraving?

No sorry we don't do the color engraving, it just the white color from the anodized aluminum reacting to the laser.

Hello sir,

I'm looking to get my paperweight 80% lower marked with my own logo/mark. I'm new to this whole process so bear with me.

Before I do get the etch work I want to make sure I'm doing this in the right order. Should I drill my lower out, then duracoat before applying the etch work?

Any order suggested here?

Thanks

Yes you would want to finish the coating before the laser work. No worries on the questions.

I do, did you just want a basic checkering?

Bainter1212 12-27-2013 5:47 PM

I have a custom thumbhole stock I had made for a rifle that could use some checkering. Maybe a simple pattern on the pistol grip and forend.

I saw you at the last gunshow, didn't have time to stop and chat, I was manning the Calguns booth.

Carsgunsandchics 12-27-2013 5:49 PM

Can you do AK's?

Were you going to be there next month? I did stop and talk to some of the guys there. I made one guy the coasters with the different gun logos.

The metal or the wood? On the metal it would just be a dark etch over the black color of the metal. Not to noticeable.

Yes it is a co2 laser not a YAG laser.
