My business card

lathmach

I used engraved cents as business cards for a couple years.
I just made a few more, and stuck a Canadian cent coin in. I was quite surprised, as I hadn't realized Canada used the same composition as the U.S.
In checking out the cent metallic composition, I discovered this was used 1997 thru 2000.
Currently, the Canada Cent coin is 94% steel.

Those are so cool!! The tool to make those must be tiny. Are you using a CNC?

Becky, I'm using a 30° carbide engraving tool and doing the engraving on a HAAS VF4 Machining Center.
The engraving tool has a 1/8" diameter body and goes to a sharp point.

To represent the old poopies out there, I'd have a hard time reading that card.

Now what was that phone number???
