Rich,

You're off to a good start. How 'bout some pics of the Spyder?

Beautiful page, but view it with IE6.

The words "Jewelry boxes,Hope chests, DISPLAY CASES" are all over the place, even under some other words. (Copied directly from the website, the comma after 'boxes' is missing a space afterwords.)

It is a truly beautiful page.

Hope I got the website fixed, but here is my first inlay project. My Boss wanted a photo engraved of his grandsons first rabbit. The photo he had was with the sun to his back so no real contrast to do on wood, so I tried it on plastic and it came out ok. I then inlayed the plastic photo into the wood. Check it out on the web page. rich www.shepswoodncrafts.com/laserengraving.html

Nice job but it looks like a prelude to Columbine...

How many times did "little bunny foo foo" attack him before he had to shoot back? ;~)

I know the feeling well :). thanks for the tip will try it this weekend, if I get the time. Still trying to find out what I can and can not do. The photos on Marble have been a big hit at the tile stores I have stopped at now if they can sell some. rich www.shepswoodncrafts.com/laserengraving.html

Rich,

Very impressive.I am just starting to experiment with marble and granite. I have read other posts about adjusting the photos so that they look good on the screen. Problem is I am not sure what looks good on the screen. Any chance you could post the original photo of one of the tiles on your website along with the corel file you used to do the engraving so I can see what "good" looks like?

Thanks,

James

James,

Will try to get a page up this weekend. I will show the photo I started with and some of the steps to get it ingraved and my settings. So far I have only totaly lost one piece. What I do is start with a fast speed and low power then work to the middle till I get a setting that works.
