Anyone still sell plane jane A2 raw unmarked 80 lowers with selector stops?
Not the newest version with more support around the receiver extension, the regular old one that used to be standard. |

Now that they are part of PSA I don't know if you can get them any more. |

AFAIK they never put it on firearms, just on paperwork. I’ve never seen the small arms on any paperwork either but it’s the only logo I have ever been able to find. It would be cool on a lower. Too bad A1 80% lowers aren’t easily found reasonable. |

Spent about an hour tracing it. The intention was deeper on the finger, mouth and text box outline. My hatching got screwed up. Fixed now, running a sample. |

It wouldn’t pay for me to have something like that. I’d make so many lowers and half would be just goofy.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By doc_Zox: Gotta figure out how to set up a variable depth burn file does it grayscale to depth? @doc_Zox for a simpler image, just separate the parts of the image onto different layers, each with their own settings for different depths. There's also an stl to grayscale converter but you have to have a 3d stl file to convert it to variable depth. ETA different settings for each color in aluminum:  |

Your work? Yeah, did that one for a friend when I first got the laser set up and dialed in. Drawn 100% in Lightburn. It's the only gun related thing I've got as my business is not gun related at all. While Lightburn is way ahead of EZCad2 IMO, being an AutoCAD guy for 30 years, I get pissed at Lightburn's limited interface. Don't get me wrong, it's not horrible for what it is, but it could be way better. |
