Default engraved windshield
I was playing around with my new laser and decided to pull my shield off and engrave on it. Turned out pretty cool. It's amazing what we do to be different!!

Thats looks really sweet!

When do you start taking orders ?

Just a idea I have seen some Goldwing guys do, mount some LEDs to the bottom edge of the wind screen (inside the fairing) and when you turn them on, the light will light up the engraving. Really looks cool at night.

I bought an import laser to add to my current capabilites and have been engraving anything I could get my hands on. I learned not to cut ABS as it stinks so bad I had to open the shop door. I did a photo of my daughter at her graduation in marble, wood and some leather. This has been alot of fun but it is taking me away from what I should be really doing.
I cannot advertise or sell anything on here as I am not a sponser and will get kicked off. I just wanted to share what a laser engraved windshield looks like and how much fun a laser can be.
