Default Garage Art, Any Interest???

Hey guys and gals,

Just curious if there would be any interest here in some of my "garage art" for lack of a better term. As a side business/hobby, I have started to make laser cut silhouettes of vehicles. I really like the look of them. Maybe some of you would like them too. Here are some pics to give you an idea of what I am talking about. If there is some intrest, I would gladly become a PT.net sponsor too of course! Thanks!

How about a clock?



Or a lit up sign?

I can do any vehicle you choose. I am currently doing a 2003 RCSB step side. Price can vary depending on how detailed it gets, and how many I can cut at a time. The more I have on order, the cheaper they get! Typically the are around the $100-150 range for a 24" cut out. A good number would be around 10 cut outs at a time. Tell all your friends! Haha. Each cut out takes anywhere from 4-10 hours in draw time alone.

As for the clocks, I have not had an order for one yet. So I don't know exactly how much they will be. My target for the clocks would be $60-80 each. Again, I need to be able to make a few of them to bring the price down. It is hard to tell in the picture, but the clock is a two piece design. The black is set back 1/2" from the grey surround to give it more of a gauge look to it.

Thanks for your interest!

-Kenny

How big of a sign are we talking? There are a lot of different options we could go with on a sign too. I will have to get some finished pics of this particular sign. This one is a store front sign, about 4' x 5'. It is made completely of brushed stainless steel. Some of the sign is also powder coated in candy red. This sign is $1500.00. But, it has a lot to it, and a fair amount of hours.

What are you thinking for a light up sign? How big? We could do a silhoutte of your truck, that is back lit with LED's too! I bet that would look sweet.

I can do all kinds of fonts. This sign that is shown, is a replica of their business logo.
