They had a 125B and 1590B for $3.99 for a buffered (not polished) finish up for a bit over the weekend. Looks like they're still working out the kinks, but I look forward to seeing these enclosures.

Just got these prototypes in today, I am very happy with the quality of the engraving.   

The engraving service should be up and running soon, I'll post an update as soon as I know the final word about pricing/minimum order requirements.

They've also got a new powdercoat setup and will be offering UV printing in the very near future as well.

Wow, can't wait to see the pricing.

Sorry for the newbie question, but were those enclosures engraved and fill-painted with white or were they engraved to reveal the white underneath?  Fantastic results either way.  Are they really Tayda protos (or did I misread)?

[BuGG]

Yep, they're all from Tayda.       There's no fill painting, what you're seeing on the black enclosures is the raw aluminum underneath the black powdercoat.

On the white enclosure I believe it was engraved with fewer passes (or lower power?) so the white powdercoat is "burned" rather than completely removed.

Wow! Totally worth it, if the cost is even semi reasonable

Yikes, I bet PPP is none too happy! Unless Tayda does it stateside?

[m-Kresol]

well that looks very good. how's the general quality of the powder coat?

EDIT: also, which data format do they use for engraving? I assume it has to be vector graphics at least?

[Adam_DIY]

They look really excellent definitely keeping an eye on this.

[beneharris]

Wow, that is killer. Can you let us know what they go for engraved like that?

[Jebus]

Thats really cool! Hopefully they will offer this for larger enclosures as well.

[PhiloB]

Wow, that is sharp
