Excited to share the newest product I designed. This one is simple, but it gives me joy every time I climb into my truck. I plan to hang one on my Christmas tree this year as well. @MrsLegler also told me she wants to hang a Tremor Tag in her Volvo! :cool:

The process to create these had an interesting learning curve for me...
  • Xtool D1 Pro 20W Laser
  • Basswood - experimented with and without baking soda application for darkness
  • Generated some images in ChatGPT
  • Used Photoshop on iPad Pro to adjust multiple image layers, modify the images, and combine various parts into a single design
  • Burned several experiments of various laser speed/power settings to find the appropriate burn for all the layers. Everything needed a slightly different setting to optimize the final appearance.
    • the cuts
    • the mountains
    • the truck
    • the text
    • the rocks
  • Found a paracord color that compliments the tag well (dark green)
  • Found a paracord sliding lock to make the length of the tag adjustable to hang at any preferred height
  • @DTX2023Tremor gave me a creative way to attach the cord to the tag to make it hang straight (not pictured in the photos)
  • Tested drops of essential oil directly onto the back of the tag - makes for a wonderful smell in the vehicle! (or just leave it unscented if that's your thing)

Just forwarded the link to my wife and told her to have the kiddos buy them as Christmas gifts for her brother and I.
aww, that's cute! Love that idea! Let me know if she has any trouble with the BOGO half off offer - it's the first time I've used that on the store.
 
Awesome work my friend, I am impressed!

I’ll send you a PM!
 
Haha I’m working on it!!
Don't do it! Don't even think about it! Just don't! It'll be a headache to make that grill and you'll need Tylenol and that's a no-no! Please don't it! 🤪
