I have made desk plaques from several materials and for NISSAN I used TREX deck material.

The material I am using is TREX decking that you would use for building your backyard deck. |
After my deck was built there were lots of small pieces not used so I tried carving it. |
After "V" carving the text I paint then after the paint dries I plane the top to remove access paint and leave the text. |

Machined from TREX Deck Material. |
I was asked to make the slot a little larger for business cards. |
Sequence of operation, 1 ~ Search for text font, design, style, location and depth. 2 ~ Save design file to flash drive, find material and mount to CNC. 3 ~ Machine top flat "text area". 4 ~ Engrave text 90° V bit 0.020 deeper. 5 ~ Paint text, wait for paint to completly dry ? 24 hours 6 Machine top text surface area at 0.020 7 Machine business card slot. 8 Remove, flip over and machine tapered back at 0.460 9 Remove and machine bottom angle |
If there is a logo involved in the design that will be more design time and of course cut time. |
