I often make saddle stands, which have often had an inlaid Texas Map. But the requests for what goes on the map have grown from a few initials to things that would be candidate for laser engraving.
My local source of laser wood engraving cannot engrave brass, much less cut it out in the shape of a Texas map.
Is laser cutting of thin brass, accompanied by laser engraving, a high-tech expensive process, or are there sources where I could have it done at modest cost? I am looking for a map cutout that would be about 5-6 inches wide, and probably about the same height (I have to go measure Texas to confirm).
