Big order
« on: November 18, 2011, 07:03:30 pm »
Just when you wanted something to do :D. Good news is last year I cut key chains for the principal and vice-principal of my school as year end gifts.  Well the free-bee paid off, They want key chains for all staff members for Christmas. (54). Bad news is I am cutting just the initials so there are no duplicates and I will be cutting from purpleheart. Better go and get the stove going.  ;D

Hey Clyde, Make sure you use clear packing tape on both sides of your purpleheart blanks to help with burning! Good luck and show us a pic of all of them!

Congrats.

You say you cutting initials only??  2 letters only ie DM for Don McFarland or D McFarland

I like the idea for my grandkids teachers.  I already cut name plates and something else would like this would work great.

I like doing the initials as they are even more personal than the name. I have cut a lot of keychains using the initials only I try to include any middle initials where I can. It is like a personal call number. ;D

Way to go, Clyde!

Out of 54, there's no one with the same initials?  Bummer.

Good order!  Love that purpleheart, I have a plank in my rafters about 14 inches wide.
