Depends on how good a deal they give/continue to give the suppliers. But seems very likely Johnson Plastics will quickly drop other materials, like IPI...

Haven't done too many Fires yet but the engravings on the Kindle Keyboard would rub off over time if left that white. I do them deeper now which results in a tan color. Saw someone paint filling one...

So anyone with kids tried out this year's 3DS model? http://www.nintendo.com/3ds

Curious if the paint is the same still... almost curious to buy one to test, but can't think of anyone to re-gift...

Thanks Sarah, I agree that it helps customers. The ironic thing about all this is that I ended up doing a search for my business after a potential customer wanted proof that I was a legitimate...

Did I say I was counting Saturday and Sunday? Why not give me the benefit of the doubt too? I'm actually not terribly upset, I just posted it to help the engraving community, not to share a 'I'm so...

I emailed them Friday and said they had 5 days to respond or take things down.

Hindsight being 20/20 I have a pretty good idea what to do if this happens again.
A lawyer would take the case if the images had been registered with the copyright office and watermarked. This...

The reason I posted was in case anyone wanted to check his site for their own work since it doesn't seem like anything is his own.

As for using photos- giving credit is not enough and you can be...

Doug is right. I plan to watermark images from now on but the only way that's entirely effective is to go across the middle of the photo and I hate to do that.

The site isn't linking from my...

I came across another engraving business website that has stolen dozens of photos of my engraving work and used them to make their own website. I have found work from two other engravers included as...

I wouldn't know where to start making my own...

I like Chewbarka's cards, Frank suggested posting on the engravingetc forum (is he affiliated with that?) but I figured I'd start here.
I was...

I'm looking for a source for anodized/coated aluminum cards that have a magnetic stripe that can be programmed for gift cards. I can't say that I've ever seen a metal card like this before, though...

I've used Thermark on several iPod Touch backs and a few stainless steel flasks. No matter how careful I am removing the paste I always end up with light scuffing afterwards. Even now I've switched...

Thanks for all the suggestions. It's always trial and error - but having more things to try never hurts!

I converted the vector graphic to bmp in Corel with anti-alias ON and it's doing so much...

This might be a pointless question - but I thought I'd throw it out there as an answer would save me many many hours this week.

I have an engraving to do that has many small filled in circles. ...

The black plastic iPhones (3G, 3GS) engrave to an off-white color (polycarbonate I'd guess). I've started with lower power and worked up and that made it a darker color than cutting through on the...

I posted about engraving my iPhone4 back here:

Just used standard glass settings.

It is really confusing, agreed.

I got LMM6000 to stick to a thin aluminum flashing shingle (5x7) but had no luck at all with bare copper, which it is supposed to mark.

Your pen is gorgeous...

Try googling for laser engraving apple warranty and iPod shuffle. There was a post on Make Magazine's page several years ago.

I've heard that it's case-by-case depending on what's wrong with the...

Due to the timing of getting my laser and the availability of domain names I seem to have made engraving iPads the specialty of my business. The aluminum etches well and it's a hit give-away for...
