Thanks.

I don't have a "brand" and it'd look like crap if I tried to do it by hand. I have created a logo that could be laser engraved. Thought was to put it on some thin medallions and inset them.

One of these days maybe
Back in the dark ages when an apple ll was the hot new thing, I got a rubber stamp made and used an ink pad then signed and dated under the stamped logo. Most things I made were furniture so had backs and undersides out of sight. Small stuff just had a disposable hang tag. Lots more options today.

The reason this little Laser thiny, small -- some what inexpensive.. an the floor of the unit can be removed.. from my understanding you now can increases the height the cabinet is two pieces... The workable area is 4 x 4... plus it does not need a computer self contained with a display window.. And you can use signature, an it will stylize it.. Maybe... ?? still thinking about it..

Sounds cool. If I were in biz in today’s world, I’d definitely be looking at the latest.

Getting closer on this Mancala (Mankala?) board.

Little recesses in the walnut will hold a permanant magnet..so the 2 boards can fold/hold together with a hinge.

(Mankala?) Not familiar with the game... Looks really nice, When I lived in Florida they made a 3-4 pocket board game an used sea shells. All for the tourist..

UV Cure resin, that's with a Blue Light ? Nice looking... what was the wood used.. The Flocking.. hand laid or using a gun ? 👍
It’s a UV light. Like a flashlight. Similar to sunlight. I put it on a patio table and sat outside with it with a book to read for a while. No bugs landed on it and it was a perfect day. The wood is cherry. Finish is danish oil

That’s a long drive for personalized delivery. Nice looking boards. Style looks easy to modify for backgammon too.
