Had some laser time last night

Spending way to much time on the B3's lately so stopped and did some graphic work on my two leetle friends here....

Absolutely beautiful  nice work Mark. Look in the library there is a few picture targets that I submitted. One of them is of two hawks tag teaming a tree rat, it would look good lasered on a stock.

Damn, Mark, those are entirely too cool!  Just out of curiosity, what would it cost to have something like that done?  Later.

We charge by time and materials for custom work.  A single graphic like this would run around $45 + $10 if we do a colour fill.  Most clients opt to do their own colour fill as it saves them a bit and lets them participate in the personalization.  We have been operational now for over a year but have been reluctant to take on customer supplied material as both Julie and I are super critical of our own work.  I have about 20 rifle stocks under my belt now and would be happy to start working with the friends of GTA on a limited basis as its paramount to maintain customer satisfaction.

Mark
that is really great work.  I would think for anyone wanting a really nice graphic on anything that would be the ticket.
Again that is Great work

Thanks Bill, its allot of fun to make them special.  I find its allot like selecting a tattoo, you spend allot of time thinking before you commit it to wood.  I have a 392 airsource coming in from Oregon sometime next week and I'm already thinking about what to put on this ones sister.  The 392le already had the Crosman laser checkering, so far with tests on QB 78 stocks the Archers sent I could get better results than Crosman but still not up to hand cut checkering.  The other limitation of the laser is it needs a relatively flat surface the slight radius of the stock is ok but something like the thumbhole stock with the sharp drop off in depth would not work for laser checkering.  If there is anyone who does hand checkering I sure would like to offer to laser a pattern as a go by for hand finish, I suspect that would be a big advantage.

Cheers
