Laser Engraved olivewood on Faith, Hope, Love

[DigBaddy72]

Made this for a customer who is giving it to their priest as a gift. Used a standard font found in MS Paint. I chose this blank for the grain on one side and the lack of grain on the other. Made engraving it a lot easier.Made this for a customer who is giving it to their priest as a gift. Used a standard font found in MS Paint.

Very nice. Looks like you're getting the hang of that engraver. Looks good.

Very nice! What did you use for a burn time?

I used 65. I usually go for between 60 and 80, for some reason I can't get a consistent result so I always do a test burn on scrap first. Fine lines that burn good at 65 for one font, dont show up the same on a different font.

Overall though, this engraver is exactly what I needed. A few more pens and it paid for itself in a very short time.
