I engraved some bags last week that had virtually no smell but the test piece I used to see how the logo would look really stunk bad - like burnt hair.</p> <p>Gary</p><hr /><a name="a6656_4"></a><p><b>From: Ron (RBENNETT)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=6656.4">#4</a>]<br /> 16 Apr 2007<br /><b>To: BrianC (INKSQUIRTER)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=6656.2">#2</a>] 16 Apr 2007</p> Thanks for the answer Brian, the smell is not in the exhaust, it is in the piece after the engraving.<hr /><a name="a6656_5"></a><p><b>From: Ron (RBENNETT)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=6656.5">#5</a>]<br /> 16 Apr 2007<br /><b>To: Laser Image (LASER_IMAGE)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=6656.3">#3</a>] 16 Apr 2007</p> Thanks, Gary.

Major nazal congestion helps with the smell, sometimes. <hr /><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>
