I bought some Grado Gimbels with some Blocks from one of the members here who is Indonesia or Malaysia or somewhere like that.
 
The Blocks are Blank, no Right or Left Markings
 
Is there anyone here who does CNC work who can mill some markings into the Blocks for me?
 
I would basically like them to look like the Grado Blocks.  Large R and L with a Rounded square outline around the letters.
 
I talked to some local CNC shops and they won't fool with such a small job.

You would prolly have better luck at a trophy shop.
 
Could go the DIY case badge route with it. (print the image on photo paper, cut out, cover with epoxy, finish edges, stick on with double sided tape)

LOL
 
I don't think I communicated this quite clearly enough.
 
These "Type" Blocks and Gimbels are being put on some HF-2's
 

 
 
So I want to CNC the markings on the Blocks and color the mill'd out area black

  I think a laser engraver may be a better way to tackle that.
Google spit out a few interesting hits when I searched for south Florida laser engraving.

 
 
Thanx, didn't know about that.  The engraving looks high quality.
