First tries with a laser engraver

[Danny Linguini]

Thanks to @Cwalker935 's thread from a few months ago, I grabbed myself a cheapo Laserpecker LP1, just for personalizing pens. Today I turned these (PSI Trimline and Victorian) for my sister and her hub, aka Nani and Zeus to their grandkids. I'm very pleased with how they turned out.

They turned out really nice

I know there is a rule of thumb
about which side to put the names
on the pens, has some thing to do with
which what hand you write with

But a can't think of it right now

It may be in the library

I got both angles covered. (quite by accident). Between the first one and the second one I forgot the image comes out upside down from the position I had the laser thingie in. I'm sure I'll forget again. If I had to guess, I'd say the Zeus pen is correct for right-handers, since the letters would be approximately correctly oriented if holding the pen in the right hand.
