I have just bought a GlowForge+ to do that very thing but I’m still learning. However, I know the GF+ can engrave pens/boxes. I just don’t know how, yet!

I love the selection of boxes. Can you please advise me 0n how you make them as I have only just started wood turning etc. But haven't tried a box. What would I need to know before trying and do you have any plans???

If it's a wooden pen you can laser a name into it, I have done several with company names, personal names and images.
Just a thought.

Hi Robin,
I don’t hold much stock as usually make to order, I have my own box stocks that I can move around from the sets I have made over the last few months or so.

Message me on here so I can then get back to you with photos.

I a router asked Tom, if you search you tube for router sled you will find loads of different people have done them.

I don’t have drawing, only measurements that I set my depth of router too and where I put my end stops for my router. They won’t mean anything to you as it depends on what router sled you make.
