Laser Cutting and Engraving on Wood
Jelly fish flames wood box. Cigar box which was sanded, engraved, and then coated with wax/orange oil. I only learned later that the discoloration around the engravings can easily be removed with a wet rag. The box was made in 3 separate steps. Engraved the top, rotate 90 degrees, engrave the right side, rotate 180 degrees, and engrave the left side. Unfortunatly, pictures don't do it justice. It looks amazing in person.
Settings:
Speed: 500mm/s
Power: 50% (considering that 60% appears to be max power, ~20ma, while cutting)
Other side of the box.
Provisions for the 19th Hole. Engraved the text at the top and the golfer at the bottom. 2 passes were taken due to the way that oak engraves. Oak has very dense and softer layers of grain. The dense layers don't engrave as deeply, and so they leave ridges in the engraving. A second passes evens it out a little more and creates more contrast.

The sharpness of the engraving in Oak is impressive. The edges are crisp and even. The grain is still very visible in the engraved area.
