Love the Clemson sign on the wall. Go tigers. Class of 86. My wife and I are exactly where you guys are but we are giving ourselves time. Wish you all the best.
Go Tigers! Shannon made that sign a few years ago 😁 We have definitely taken our time as well. Aiming to ramp things up now haha Thanks for the support and we send it right back to you!!
I’m exactly here. I’m inspired to watch and learn. Now I better start making something everyday so nothing goes bad on machine. Trying to get a niche is very difficult
@@BLAC.Inspiredengravings Hi! Thanks for being here! Didn’t mean to mislead. There have certainly been times we didn’t use the laser for a couple of weeks. I think the company was saying more along the lines of MONTHS of no use. Don’t want you to stress trying to burn every day. But you know what?! That would actually be a fun challenge and probably would be helpful in gaining skills and trying new things. 🤔😁
Wonderful story and a very inspiring journey! I am currently in the same path as you folks. The only difference is, I had a laser about 10 years ago and it was a HUGE expensive boat anchor. One of the things I did after making the laser set sail in a trash bin was I keep working on skills in creating files. In the last week, I decided to go all in on turning the files I have created, the business that has sat dormant, and the TH-cam channel that has been on the back burner for years - to be my number one focus for the next two years. After that, we will see the fruits of success and what that looks like for the after my 24 month goal. Hats off to you both in what you are embarking on and I am glad your channel came up in my suggested feed. I believe I am officially subscriber #37 :) Keep sharing awesome! - Nicholas
@@NicholasGomez Love to hear your story! So awesome you are going for it with your files. Definitely a goal of ours some day! Thanks for being here and supporting!
It's funny you mention Recipe.. I actually write down each project cut, assembly, parameters and paint so I can reference later. I've had a Diode for a year or so and recently purchased the 100 watt C02. Purchasing an entire operation is truly a gutsy move! I salute you two!!! Best of luck. 👍👍
That’s super smart. We have started making notes in our design program to try to keep up with everything. It was a gutsy move for sure 😆 We grew with parents that took risks with businesses. We’ve seen the ups and downs so maybe that gave us a little courage to take a chance on ourselves. That is certainly what we did!😆 Congrats on the new laser! That’s exciting!!
Thanks for saying that. We really do commit substantial time to each project. Although, sometimes, we have to reign each other in. Haha! It can be easy to get deep in the woods and overthink it.
Share with us your laser engraving business story or your own business start up story!

I really like your presentation. I'm impressed how much time and consideration you put into each project.
Thanks for saying that. We really do commit substantial time to each project. Although, sometimes, we have to reign each other in. Haha! It can be easy to get deep in the woods and overthink it.
Do you mind sharing the laser brand you had previously before the Omtech?
We were going to keep it to ourselves but thinking about it more, they sure as heck didn’t consider us sooo…..
