Metal Card engraving

[HollyBrown]

I finally tried those metal alloy business cards. I like them for pin backings.

Turned out great.

Impressive! What is your source for the metal cards?

[HollyBrown]

Got them here:

Amazon.com : Ebamaz 100PCS Aluminum Alloy Metal Card Plate 3.4 X2.13X0.008 inch...

Thank you kindly.

How’d you do the color? Nice result.

Oh wait that’s the pin.

If you aren’t wiping these down with alcohol afterward, you might want to give it a whirl. It really makes the engrave pop.

I’ve used them before, can’t remember my settings but want to say it was like 800/60. You should be able to dial it in pretty easily. The one thing I’ll say is that they looked way better when I wiped them down afterward with some alcohol. The Lasered areas pick up a little residue from burning the paint off, the alcohol picks that right up and makes them look perfect.

Wow, what a great pin card that makes. I’m really liking the pin as well.

Great work! And not a bad price for fancy packaging.

Certainly grabs the eye, really looks fantastic.
