    Laser Engraving on Custom V Guitar

    Working with custom guitar maker on his latest build...

    I traced the runes in AutoCAD from an image that the customer pulled from the internet. I used Corel to fill and engrave them. The customer is going to color fill each character before the whole thing gets painted blue.

    Nice! Seems a shame to paint that nice wood blue, though... Yes, please post a finished pic!

    you are much braver than I .. I might do this on my own project, but I'd be
    afraid to do it on someone else's!!

    Gee those markings look like the writing found on pieces of the Roswell wreckage.. Where's this guy from anyway

    Every time you make a typo, the errorists win

    I Have to think outside the box.. I don't fit in it anymore


    Experience is a wonderful thing.
    It enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it again.

    No idea who it's built for, but I hear his guitar skills are out of this world.
