Absolute Black Mable is great to work on and it comes in several different shapes and sizes. The possibilities are almost endless. Imagine starting with a solid black piece of stone and ending up with a gorgeous piece of art.
These pieces can be used as decorations, garden stones, to commemorate special occassions, or even memorials. There are many applications for this wonderful medium. The possibilities are limited only by your imagination.
Ok I know what you're thinking.......that's just a blank piece of cork board. You would be correct! What I want you to see is the before and the after because I think is is pretty amazing. This piece of cork is best suited for use as a message board and the two examples that follow will reflex that intent. The piece is 17" by 11" and can be turned to accomodate a vertical or horiznal picture. There is a wide range of options available as far as pictures that can be used. Mostly that is up to the discretion of the customer. We love animals and the outdoors so alot of our samples go in that direction. Each picture is put into a computer program which helps with how the actual picture will look on different mediums. So here are two finished pieces of cork message boards. If you like them please visit the other pages on this site.
My son, the photographer, took this beautiful wedding picture a few weeks ago. We at RazorLaser Engraving thought it would be the perfect subject to use to try out a new medium. This photograph was engraved on black artist (scratch board).
It is a similar to engraving on black granite or black marble but without the
weight. Another difference is the artist board is not suitable for outdoor use
and the marble would be fine for that. Sizes include 5 x 7 and 8 x 10. No
framing is necessary.
I decided to start a blog so I could keep people up to date on RazorLaser
Engraving. My husband, Randy, started a small business after he retired 3
years ago. He wanted something to keep him busy so he wouldn't get "bored"
since he wasn't going to work any more. He saw this advertisement for a CO2
Laser Engraver and a new passion was born. We have already learned so much, but we are learning more everyday. There are so many different materials that can be laser engraved, some examples are black granite, black marble, leather, cork, glass, acrylic, wood, and recently we learned about black artist board, painted canvas and cloth. We enjoy being creative and discovering things we didn't know. I am going to post pictures of new projects as well as how we came to be doing those projects, whether it be a personal idea or a request from someone else. So check back often and see what we can do.
