Cutting and Laser Engraving

Precision Laser & Blade Cutting Services

Bring your ideas to life with studio‑quality engraving and cutting. Our workshop pairs a diode laser with a professional blade cutter to deliver crisp details, clean edges, and production‑ready results—perfect for gifts, branding, décor, and short‑run manufacturing.

What We Can Engrave (Laser)

  • Wood & bamboo – cutting boards, coasters, ornaments, signs, puzzles
  • Slate & stone – rich, high‑contrast engravings for premium coasters and plaques
  • Leather (veg‑tanned) – patches, wallets, key fobs, journal covers
  • Cork – trivets, coasters, jar toppers
  • Anodized aluminum – durable marks on cards, tags, and plates
  • Coated metals – logos and text on powder‑coated tumblers and gear
  • Paper & cardstock – intricate engravings for invitations and art prints

Note: We avoid PVC and certain plastics for safety. Clear/blue acrylic doesn’t laser‑cut well with diodes, but darker cast acrylic engraves beautifully.
