Some are stainless steel; some are anodized aluminum. <hr /><a name="a5655_21"></a><p><b>From: JHayes55</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5655.21">#21</a>]<br /> 29 Jan 2007<br /><b>To: JimK (JUSTTHE4OFUS)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5655.18">#18</a>] 29 Jan 2007</p> We have done them with the laser over the last couple years - thus far no one has ever had any problem - I really doubt that the amount of heat for the short period of time could do damage - Heck IPod does them with YAGs everyday. <hr /><a name="a5655_22"></a><p><b>From: Engravin' Dave (DATAKES)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5655.22">#22</a>]<br /> 29 Jan 2007<br /><b>To: JimK (JUSTTHE4OFUS)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5655.18">#18</a>] 29 Jan 2007</p> <p>Jim,</p> <p>I have lasered and diamond dragged the anodized Ipods. On the Ipods with the polished stainless back, I only diamond drag. I engraved about 24 of them over the holidays with no reports of damage.</p> <p>When diamond dragging the anodized cases, I would recommend using very light pressure and running the job twice. It looks very nice.</p> <p>By the way, I've got one on my list to engrave today. :-)</p><p class="edit_text">EDITED: 29 Jan 2007 by DATAKES</p> <hr /><a name="a5655_23"></a><p><b>From: UncleSteve</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5655.23">#23</a>]<br /> 29 Jan 2007<br /><b>To: ALL</b></p> Judging from these responses, it seems that Things Remembered couldn't remember how to engrave or train their employees to engrave the Ipods...<p class="edit_text">EDITED: 29 Jan 2007 by UNCLESTEVE</p> <hr /><a name="a5655_24"></a><p><b>From: Engravin' Dave (DATAKES)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5655.24">#24</a>]<br /> 29 Jan 2007<br /><b>To: UncleSteve</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5655.23">#23</a>] 29 Jan 2007</p> >.< <hr /><a name="a5655_25"></a><p><b>From: Harvey only (HARVEY-ONLY)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5655.25">#25</a>]<br /> 29 Jan 2007<br /><b>To: UncleSteve</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5655.23">#23</a>] 29 Jan 2007</p> <div class="quotetext" id="quote"><b>quote: </b></div><div class="quote">Judging from these responses, it seems that Things Remembered couldn't remember how to engrave or train their employees to engrave the Ipods...</div><br /> <br /> My personal experience is that your statement would be more accurate without the last four words. >.< <hr /><a name="a5655_26"></a><p><b>From: Becky (KIAIJANE)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5655.26">#26</a>]<br /> 29 Jan 2007<br /><b>To: JimK (JUSTTHE4OFUS)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5655.18">#18</a>] 29 Jan 2007</p> Jim-<br /> I used the recommended settings for anodized aluminum for my iPod Mini (yeah, it's a relic) over a year ago and it works beautifully still. <br /> It does give you a little pause sticking a toy worth a couple hundred $$ in your laser. <br /> But now I can say I engrave ipods with condfidence so, that's a good thing. :-) <br /> Becky<hr /><a name="a5655_27"></a><p><b>From: sroehlk (ELECTECH1)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5655.27">#27</a>]<br /> 30 Jan 2007<br /><b>To: ALL</b></p> <p>Remember Ebay has fronts and backs for ipods.</p> <p>It would be a good way to practice or replace one if it did get ruined.</p> <p>Steve</p><hr /><p align="center">Show messages:  <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5655.1">1-18</a>  19-27</p> <h4><a href="lthread_list.php?webtag=EE">Back to thread list</a> | <a href="llogout.php?webtag=EE">Login</a></h4> <h6>© 2024 <a href="http://www.beehiveforum.net/" target="_blank">Project Beehive Forum</a></h6> </body>
