I have an idea for a project and need some images burned into wood with a laser. Can any one recommend someone to do this for me?

Re: Laser Engraving

Rick,

I did a Google search for "Laser engravers NC" and came up with this company in Greensboro that may be able to help you...Creative Graphics and Engraving.

Re: Laser Engraving

There's a guy (I think Ed) that works at the Charlotte Woodcreaft that has a laser. I've seen some of his stuff. Looks pretty good.

Re: Laser Engraving

Sorry. The one I use is in Raleigh. Mort's Trophies. A long ways away from you, but I guess you could mail stuff to them. I have them do pens for me.

Re: Laser Engraving

DL Ames was looking seriously at these at the IWF. May want to check with him as he probably has contact info for other owners if he has not taken the leap.

There are some trophy shops that have lasers for engraving plaques and such.

Re: Laser Engraving

I've used this guy on some pens recently. Quick turnaround, can't complain on the work either.
