💵 Business concept idea to make a few bucks

Hello fellow laser engravers! :wave:

I recently read that home brewing is way up in demand as a result of COVID19 lockdown.

It might be difficult to keep track of beer pours with plain or unlabeled handles. And handwritten notes tacked to a handle lack the polish needed to represent a fine-crafted brew.

Home brewers will appreciate the ability to quickly install new handles for their latest experiment. Craft breweries will be able to add new, unique handles for the bar. And drinkers will admire the fine woodwork as bartenders masterfully pour their next brew.

You and your laser machine can be the link to their happiness and you can turn some cash :dollar:

You can find blanks at Amazon just do a quick search they have many different styles and types of wood to chose from

Now go out that laser to work !

I’ve been making tap handles for about 4 years now.
I started out making them on my CNC.
But this year I added my laser and now it will be a combination of laser and CNC to cut them out.
Just yesterday I bought wood to make 20 more.

I love that dinosaur sign.
I just may have to copy that one. :wink:

I’ll put the whole file up. When I get the workshop open.
