I am a machinist for a living.
I began learning cnc programming about 6 years ago.
This year, I started playing with artwork within my cad cam software.
I made a couple of clocks,
one of which was given to my boss for Christmas this year.
He was so highly impressed, that he wants to venture into a different sort of business which will incorporate my newfound hobby into the workplace.
We have been doing some research into versatile machinery. For a very small initial investment, we have found a laser engraver, and a cnc plasma torch to be the wisest investments.
The laser will enable us to cut a wide variety of materials with high precision. We will be able to offer things such as etching a person's name on their new barbecue utensils, or ink pen, and coupled with the plasma cutter, cutting a custom scene out of a 5'x10' sheet of steel to hang as a gate on someones entry to their grand palace.
The type of laser etching machine we are looking into is usually found in a custom embroidery or monogram service. But they are capable of way more than simply monogramming someones name. Though we will be offering this, I am really looking for things more creative.
What would be a good name for a company offering such unlimited capabilities?
I want to attract as much custom design and artwork as I can, as well as little quick jobs such as selling lazed pens for
pr guys to hand out etc....like you could get from a monogramming service.
Something like Panhandle Monogram and Custom Design???
