Laser engraved natural slate. Engraved on an AtomStack A5 Pro. Fill+Line 100% Power at 4000 mm/min. Image is a rando that I found on the web and then used LightBurn to automatically trace. Laser, coasters, honeycomb grid, and magnets can all be sourced on Amazon.

Thank you!

I've been having a blast with my laser engraver, and I get asked a lot about having an etsy store or the like.  At this point I'm just having fun making birthday/Christmas gifts.  I have been thinking about a creative use for those Ordo logos...

Here's some other examples: Painted ceramic tiles, wood, metal, and more natural slate!

In this case all I did was paste the link and NO html and it auto inserted the picture

Oh that's funny, it didn't turn them into pics when I deleted all the HTML... oh well

Challenge coin board?

Becky's been looking for one for me

Yup, I did this one for a co-worker.  Currently building one up for one of our CSIs.  This is the "large" model, about 3' wide and I think like 20" or so tall, can't remember.  Holds about 96 regular challenge coins but the rail on top can hold the oversized military style easily.

The medium one is like 30" wide, the smaller one is 24" wide.

I also blowtorch if you like the distressed look, or can paint the other bars sharp white.  I would show more pics but you see how that's working out for me.

Dalmer, I think I've got it!  I copied just the URL of what you pasted:

Then I pasted it into this post and noticed this message at the bottom of the post:

As soon as I clicked that link, the URL briefly became underlined, and then automatically turned in to this beautiful image!

I have one of the devices for turning round objects, I haven't used it yet. Really nice work, please pass on the compliment. Inspiring!

For more on the link behavior, rich text messes with the site's ability to automatically convert image URLs into visible images. The brief moment of the URL being underlined was the site first recognizing a valid plain text URL, and then in a blink the auto image handler goes and gets the image and presents it here.

She's trying all sorts of stuff on it.  You two should compare shop notes ha ha.  She's taking some online tutoring that's really helping and wants to learn how to do .SVG files because it takes so long to clean them up I guess.

I told her to engrave on my knife and an AR lower to see how that goes.

These need to be made available to the public 🙂

Love the coasters and the idea of letting others get them, but please note that when it's not just a one-off homemade item, using the Ordo Fanaticus logo for products (even free ones) requires approval from the Senate.
