Alright well I help my parents run their business and am constantly working on new designs/concepts to put to use with the LASER ENGRAVER/ETCHER that we use for making mostly signs, plaques, ornaments, puzzles, etch glass and so on.

I recently had been working on a way to light up signs and ended up with a pretty succesful design/product. Here are a couple images of that product:

I'm looking for suggestions for other products I could make. I've been brain storming trying to find new products to produce and though this one seems to be a big success as it's gottem me a couple jobs locally for some business signs for in office use. You can see that these signs really light up well even in office level lighting as that's were I took the images.

Let me explain how the laser works so that maybe something you think of will be something that I can produce and haven't visited yet.

It's basically a table 32"w X 20"d (I can make items more than 20" deap as one of the side walls of the unit is removable)
The table is able to move up and down to allow for various thickness items and to focus the laser on the item.

What the laser is able to do:
Cut wood, acrylic(plexiglass), plastics, and so on.
Mark on metals (marking is only removable with a grinder).
Etch glass, marble and so on.

If you can think of a prodcuct that would be cool and have a decent market I would really appreciate the help in my brain storming for ways to make this business an actual success. Right now we are strugling with it and haven't been able to make things meet up too well. I need suggestions for products to help turn things around a bit for us.

I truly appreciate any ideas you can give me. I'm hoping I can get things back up to what they were a few years back when local business was a lot better. We are based out of Southwest Florida.
