I run a promotional/advertising business on the side. Due to the rules I can't make you an offer on the forums, but contact me off-forum and I'll give you a ballpark quote...
(mods if this isn't cool pls let me know! and accept my apologies! ...just trying to help a fellow [H]'er!)

Well, the laser I was looking at purchasing was a CO2 laser - they can't cut metal. The YAG lasers can, but I can't afford one of those!
I purchased a sandblasting setup - it should be here by next weekend (please o please mr. fed ex show up with my stuff early!!!)
I'm going to have to...
Ok, this is an old thread!!
We decided to go another route - which means I didn't get my engraver (YET!) but started another business altogether doing promotional product advertising and screen printing. It's a blast!
We just got back from an expo in Vegas - so many ideas! I'll get...
Incredible - I just started a small business doing promo items and screened items, like bags and shirts. Let me know what specs/designs you want, and I'll see if I can get you a good price! Things like the type of shirt (short/long sleeve, jerzees, hanes, color....) and the graphic types...

I've already had one guy approach me about cutting/etching plexi for him, for a...
xport1 has some of the sickest etches I've ever seen. Some day I'll grow up and be like them!
I like the ULS systems - I've never seen one in action (other than the VersaLaser)....I'm waiting on literature from them now. There's a distributor here in TX called Brewer Sales that sells Epilog...
I've looked into those too - I like the speed of the laser systems, and the detail - one sample I received had examples of text marked onto metal, down to 2pt.! Another sample was an Inca 'clock' 3D engraved onto wood- very neat. I think the laser system would be my best bet for now - I'll...
Yeah, I wish I would be able to cut panels. Etching a painted panel or obviously an acrylic window should be ok. If I had the cash I'd suck it up and get one of the stronger machines that can cut too.... :(
Everyone - I may be purchasing a laser engraver/cutter in the near future...I wanted to see what the response was on the [H] before I made my final purchase!
So, would anyone be interested in laser etched/engraved/cut parts? (I know, dumb question...but I need to see the response...) The...
Premiere is expensive!! Try www.videohelp.com - lots of info for newbs like us! They even have a thread that shows different ways to create/author using completely free utilities. From start to finish.
I have a ton of video to convert from VHS, some from digital cams. Too much! It's...
