Can you post some pictures for us to see?

If i do decide to do this i would rather give my business to a fellow member and enthusiast!

Is it ok to post a couple of pictures of work that I have done strictly for myself?

Picture of razors ie: Razor Porn are always acceptable

A member here 'thirdeye' has done and I'm sure is still doing laser backs.

Here was his post about an old F Reynolds that he did.

I have a 30W CO2 laser in a LaserPro Explorer II at work. I use it to etch our company logo and labels on electrical control panels. It vaporizes small amounts of just about any material except metal. On glass it makes tiny chips, so the glass takes on a frosted appearance.

I put my brother-in-laws name on the scales of a razor. It is being honed right now. I'll post a pic when I get it back in a few days.

I have a Boker that I put my initials on the blade. I'll post a pic of it at the same time. I use a different method of marking metal. I apply a powder spray to the metal. When I laser it, the heat fuses the powder into a hard ceramic finish that is black. Then I just wash off the excess powder. This ceramic will not come off. The only way to remove it is with sandpaper and a lot of elbow grease.

That's right. It's not only acceptable, we encourage that sort of thing and love it when it happens!
