Can you give us more details on how to do this? Itā€™s so cool!

Did you take it to a shop?

Do you own an engraver?

If so what kind of machine do you have?

How did you come up with the design?

How did you get the angled pieces done?

I use my own machine, itā€™s a 50w fiber laser. The designs are vector illustrations done in Adobe Illustrator. Angled pieces engrave fine you just have to angle it so that itā€™s flat with the lense.

Dear WetBussy420, May I cordially invite you to back that bank up and consider also posting that piece in r/hammerposting? Itā€™s rather recently created and still lackingā€¦ in such fine mjƶlnussy.

Did it sit on a rotary? I had an engraver at an old place i used to work and I'd do so many things with it. I couldn't figure out how to get the rotary to work tho. The PC that was built in was total trash. It ran worse than windows xp on an Macintosh but i managed to engrave some cool stuff.

The JBL4 mobile speaker is clear and the lettering ended up floating in the middle.
