    Summary

    A client recently asked for an engraved award, so I suggested engraving on a solid, clear, block of acrylic. I always found this something of a hassle before getting the P2S, but with the CO2 laser, these types of projects are relatively fast and easy.
    
    I used a 4 x 6 Clear Acrylic Block Award blank from Johnson Plastics Plus (link in the instructions). They cost about $20 apiece, but for your time and materials, you can probably charge about $60 for something of this quality. (😲 Wait...did I just share pricing strategies that could help others? I did! I thought that's what we did here—help each other out. 😀)
    
    Despite the automatically generated settings below, this job is meant to run on slats, and the project file is set up accordingly.
