I'm confused... what the heck did I just see?
Smile, youre looking at a Fiber Laser that can mark or cut text to the size of .3 millimeter ( tiny ) and its cutting a logo for a group called A Girl with a Gun on an AR 15 lower they will assemble and raffle.
I recognized the lower, just didn't know what all the flashing lights were all about. :o Thought maybe it was special effects or something... Sure is special, anyway!
Spectacular results...might I suggest you experiment with a dash plate for a 1500....there are some out there, but mainly for the J models. The R ones are not really available...

--- Shhhh.... We're working on it, Troll... :)
That is truly amazing. .3 MM lettering.... 300 micrometers (um) - that's about .012"..... Let's see, a human hair (thickness) is 100 um (.004") and a single pixel on a 1024×768 screen is about 340 um (......013")
I would think that could come in handy for theft protection or some type of top-secret applications.... Come to think of it, I think directions sheets for the last couple of aftermarket parts I got MAY have been printed that way!!! :o

Or some of these..http://www.vulcandrifterriders.com/forum/index.php?topic=41793.msg91385#msg91385
I thought it was that sparkler stuff glued to the plate.
Would any one have a tank bezel they could scan for me with a rule in the picture? I have a 1999 1500 and want to make a replacement to get rid of the Kawa one. Just hate to take my bike out of service by removing the one on the bike til I can swap it out - TX Dubliner

I just took the stock one out, painted the backside semi-gloss black, and glued it back in place black side up.

what a great idea...wouldn't have thought of that in a million years!
Mine s the longer one and Id like to cut some out, anodize and use the lazer to inscribe the Drifter font on them. Anybody got a spare theyd sell or scan for me?
Mine is off the bike, right now, as I had one made at a local trophy shop, but I'm not really all that thrilled with it. What resolution would you want for a scan?
600 dpi with an inch scale/ruler in the scan if you could, That would be awesome - Thank you.
