16 walnut serving boards. One brother. One laser. š„
My brother BurntBrydgesWoodCo cut these off the CNC'd pieces and prepped them. I ran the engravings ā the braai_house phoenix logo on each ā and now they're heading back to him for finish.
Here's the workflow that made it repeatable at batch scale:
1ļøā£ Tested the engraving first to dial in the settings on scrap
2ļøā£ Built a cardboard template on the honeycomb bed ā cutout matches the board profile exactly. Drop a board in, it's locked in position. Every time.
3ļøā£ Batched through all 16. Same settings, same location, same result.
Templates aren't fancy. Piece of cardboard, laser cuts the outline of your part, done in 5 minutes. But they turn "one at a time and hope" into "load, engrave, next" ā which is the difference between a hobby and a business.
Follow along ā I share the actual production shortcuts that make small-shop laser work profitable. No fluff. š
