What I need from you

Five things. One text message covers all of them.

  1. 1A photo of the thingThe part, the blank, or a link to the product. If it is one of mine, the name is enough.
  2. 2How manyTen knives, 150 pens, one faceplate. A range is fine if you are still deciding. Every piece across your account counts toward the volume price.
  3. 3The artwork, or the wordsA vector file is best: SVG, PDF, or AI. A sharp PNG works. No file? Send the words and pick a font. I will set it.
  4. 4Where it goes and how bigA marked-up photo, a drawing, or a size in inches. "Centered, about two inches wide" is fine to start.
  5. 5When you need itMost jobs are ready in 24 to 72 hours. The delivery run is Wednesday. Name the date and I will tell you straight whether it works.
Start the text. The five lines are already in it

Precision, and what it means here

The full materials list

The mark is in the material, not on it

The laser changes the surface itself. Nothing is printed, glued, or coated, so there is nothing to peel, fade, or rub off.

From your file, line for line

Vector art reproduces as drawn: logos, serials, QR codes, part numbers. Text stays legible down to six point.

Placed to your drawing

You give a position and a size, in inches or millimeters, and that is where it lands. Same fixture, same spot, across the batch.

Repeatable

One file, saved with the settings that ran it. The reorder six months from now matches the first run.

Proven before it runs

The first piece is photographed and approved by you before the rest are touched. A wrong mark on metal is permanent, so it is never a surprise.

What marks, and how it looks

Anodized aluminumDye removed to bare silver metal, whatever the color. Cards, tags, plant markers, laptop lids.
Stainless steelAnnealed: a matte dark mark in the surface, nothing removed. Knives, labels, coasters, flatware.
Powder-coated metalCoating stripped to bare steel. Tumblers, bottles, painted panels.
Brushed and raw metalsEngraved or annealed to a dark mark. Faceplates, brass, titanium, tool steel.
PlasticsA light, permanent mark in ABS, polycarbonate, and most hard plastics. Chargers, housings, sign stock.
Wood and bambooA clean burn, darker with more power. Boards, panels, signs, coasters.
LeatherA dark, slightly recessed mark. Patches, wallets, tags.
SlateA pale frost where the surface is removed. Coasters and small signs.
MirrorSilvering removed from the back, leaving clear glass where the design goes. Backed in any color or material you like, or left clear.

Glass, acrylic, and anything not on this list: text me a photo first. If it is solid and fits the bed, it probably marks, and I will tell you how before you commit.
