You have great ideas, you’re so genuine in your videos and I also get a good laugh every now and then 😂.

These are so cool, I can think of so many things that would be so cool.

Sam, you are correct. I have been lasering for 3 or 4 years now, and I just kinda shoot from the hip when setting the speed and power. Most of the time, I get it spot on. And some time, I make a learning experience. 😂 A few weeks ago, I 3D printed an ornament holder for someone so they could laser engrave on ornaments. I guess I should make one for myself. I have some ideas floating around in my head for some laser engraved ornaments to make this year. The great thing about this hobby, or small business, is that there is a lot of talent out there and the demand is high for personalized ornaments. Just a side note, Scroungers Paradise did not get destroyed by the hurricane. They are open every day.

Creative Fabrica is amazing! I have been using them for more than a year also. What is great is that many items include licenses which allows commercial use!

[tedapke]

A light inside the white ornament would make the engraving pop. You’re a mean one, Mr. Grinch.

[エルサカセーラー]

Just with watching your videos I ended up buying $130 worth of your jigs . Excellent video and products!!!

[BrianBell-fd]

I did my first ornament using your jig last night and it came out great.

[barbblack]

The jigs are great. Tip: you can use tempura paint on the ornaments before engraving. This paint washes off easily after you finish your laser magic. I'm from out of country so no need for me to be mean grinching 😂. Thanks for educating us.
