    Maybe your first build could be an outhouse. :D The place looks great. What a beautiful setting.

    I also have nothing but great things to say about BlastGate Company. I installed their clamp-together metal ducting and it went very well. I even had to jump over a metal beam in one spot to reach...

    I would apply that $55 toward a membership to the Awards and Personalization Association. Part of that membership is a free subscription their trade magazine plus so much more. I've been a member...

    On the open area of the back of the hood I made an acrylic piece that bridged that space to add support and provide an area to attach the brush. I used my laser and heat strip to fabricate the...

    Alan,

    I ended up buying two lengths of it so it would extend all of the way around. I attached mine with industrial Velcro. So far so good, but hasn't had much use as I am still in the process...

    Paul,

    Why was it that you didn't qualify for the federal Paycheck Protection Program Loan? It can't be funding since I know people who are still getting loans approved.

    There are a large...

    Mike,

    My June (-56.7%) was down more than May (-49.3%) on a year over year comparison. That wasn't the trend I was hoping to experience. I like how the second half of July is looking, but the...

    I would buy a beveler from Quality One Engravers and not look back. I've got one that is 20 years old and works like the day I bought it. You might even consult them on your existing New Hermes...

    I'm not sure anything would be accepted if it was not created in a controlled sterile environment. I wouldn't consider any of our laser machines fit that description.

    Any polyester tape or film would work. For sandcarving flat substrates I use Lazer's Edge Tape from Specialty Tapes (FAST). It can also be acquired through JDS Industries. It is red in color.

    Fair warning, be prepared for some sticker shock on Visions/Awardcraft shipping charges. At least request a quote or have them apply charges to your account. If you have them apply charges to your...

    I can tell by the shine in one area that is not an overburn, it is wood resin bonding to the surface. Wipe it away with denatured alcohol. Let us know how it goes.

    We don't have all of the details for the solution you are looking for but based on what we do know I would use a thick glass with UV-cure glue joints.

    Whatever solution you use it would need to be...

    Apply a low-tack paper mask, engrave, paint fill with a few light coats of flat black enamel, then remove the mask. This process is simple and results in perfect black engraving every time.

    I could be wrong but a doubt a bus system would be doing something as permanent as laser engraving on their glass. You may be looking at the frosted vinyl that is used for the etched look on glass.

    Yes, you can laser engrave tempered glass. I even sandcarve it, making sure I do not exceed a depth of 10% of the thickness of the glass. It's never been a problem.

    My first cartridge with Universal lasted over 8 years, hence I went with Universal. $150 a year isn't bad for something that generates the revenue it does.

    That turned out nice Bert.

    The Chicago screws are a nice alternative if you can find a source that has them with a nice finish. Most of the time they are pretty rough and not something that would...

    If more security is desired, adhesive could easily be applied to the French cleats. Regardless of how the plaques are secured, if a person wants to vandalize or steal them, they could easily do it.

    I would use French Cleats and varying thicknesses of wood behind the wall-side cleat. Set the cleat inside the edge to where it is out of view.
