Brass Color Nameplate

[lmware916]

I have some who wants me to put his name on the nameplate for a humidor that he owns. Is this possible to mark?

Not by itself.

You can use metal parking products like cermark, or you can get specially made laserable brass plates. I know I’ve seen links for those, let’s see if I can find it.

In the meantime search the forum for cermark.

Just found some great settings. No smoke stains. Nice removal of black material Glow forge basic Speed 1000 Power 50 Just excited to share! Pictures to come [20180811_213925] OK I also thickened the letters for the 2nd time so the thicker letters isn’t a direct result of Less power but look at the shininess of the brass. The top one was at full power and I had to rinse off soot. The bottom one was directly out of the machine no rinsing no nothing and looks very shiny. [20180811_214258] …

Can also use fake brass, gold, silver, etc (two color acrylic).
If done right, hard to tell unless poking at it or very close.
