Thanks. I have a Lowe’s fairly close (don’t we all). I’ll check em out.
As always an outstanding work! You continue to be my standard for the future. The learning curve is leveling off and I’m starting to feel more comfortable but I’m no where near your level yet. Thanks for sharing your work!

Love the flag!! Also, I know its not the correct forum, but more info on that truck would be nice 
I replaced the engine and all the systems on it, 235 out of a 1954 car, 355 gear in the rear, still three on the tree. Front disk brakes, 12 volt. Front axle sent to Nostalgic Sids stretched 4" and one leaf removed. 3" blocks in the rear to lower it. Only piece of sheet metal not original to the truck is the running board on the drivers side. Paint job I figure is at least 35yrs old. This winter Fulton Sun Visor paint the interior and roof of the cab. Next winter the rest of the truck will be painted. It sat in a basement for 28yrs before I got it 6yrs ago. NC farm truck.
It is a driver I use it. I refuse to own a trailer queen. Will be painted in a 81 corvette metallic blue or gun metal gray with a satin finish.
The bed will be done something similar to this
Cheers! Steve

The football plaques would have been a good combination project for your laser and the x carve. I flipped them over and did the recess for the glass as well.
What wattage is your laser? and how long did it take to run the police badge? I am assuming the design part of light burn software is similar to easel when it comes to importing files and altering them?
Thanks for the comments and info Phil!
Good old Etsy for those. I added the bird!
Love that Charlie Brown Steve! Very inspiring. Is that PVC? Would you mind explaining your painting process on it? I’m really trying to improve how I paint and this sign looks awesome! Its hard to tell but I’m going to guess you sprayed black, masked and then carved everything else? Then hand painted and removed the mask? Am I close? 
It took about 3 hours to engrave. I have the 7 watt laser
