  • 1.  Screen Printed FlexiBrass Ornaments

    Posted 11-10-2022 09:23
    Hello all!  I am looking for someone that can print on ornaments for me.  I would laser cut the shapes out of flexibrass (or if the printer wants to use their own material I would be open to that as well) and send them out to printer.  There are two layouts I would need about 275 pieces of each.  The name you see on the one side would just be left as a blank space that I would laser engrave as needed.  Does anyone have a source for this type of printing?

    I'm curious if you are cutting out the flexi brass (on a LASER, I assume), why not engrave these while doing the cutout?

    Megan,
    I can definitely do that.  Cost is a factor, for that quantity I'm thinking I can probably have them printed for cheaper than what we charge for laser engraving.  If I end up being wrong about that then I'll quote to my customer as all laser engraved.

    For me, I'd let the job run while doing other stuff - just feels like less people having to handle the order. Lots of factors to consider of course. Let us know how this goes please.

    Would uv printing instead of screen printing be an option?

    Paula,
    Yes, UV printing would be an option.  If you can do that or have a source I would love to get a quote.  Please email me at karl@micheners.com
