Hey Asmbly community - I am a relatively new member and loving all the perks of this awesome space. My focus is all woodworking, but I am wondering if I can tap into this awesome community of makers. My son has this idea of engraving a mouthpiece for a trumpet to give to a friend as a sweet 16th birthday gift. After calling around and finding out that people charge over $60 to do this, he is feeling like this may not be possible as that is out of his price range. I was wondering if anyone on this forum might be willing to do it for him for cheaper or for a trade maybe? Please let me know if you would be interested/willing and we can chat about the details.
Hey Hanna! Thanks for responding. Here is the mouth piece. He wants to engrave the neck (not where the mouth would go). He was thinking 2-3 words. About ten characters or so.
I learned how to use the rotary and engrave the mouth pieces. I have never used a rotary on a laser. I learned how to set it up.
The main lesson is to double check the wording prior to engraving. I accidently missed typed 1 letter. It changed the meaning from inside joke to something not appropriate for high school. The 2nd trumpet mouthpiece came out fine.
