Something Completely Different - Headstone Engraver Victoria

I’m very tempted, this thing would make a serious CNC router



It’s a CNC impact engraver used to make headstones. Uses a diamond bit.

Raise your hand if you ever thought of carving your own headstone from a big old surface plate.

“Delete My Browser History”

”Told You I Was Sick”

”Don’t Laugh, You’re Next”

The possibilities are endless.

I wonder if this is one of the portable ones that is taken to the gravesite to add another name?

No, but I have thought of using a gnarly granite field stone. One with variable erosion rates so it has eyebrows and character.

Make a flat spot and then engrave it with:

Susquatch is Here
Candle is still burning at both ends, stand back.

I think I just bought this. I’m willing to gamble, and at $500 my guess is the carriage components would make a great router even if I don’t use the impact engraver. Might see if I can bodge together a 3-in-1 using my existing laser and rotary spindle from my small desktop machines.

SWMBO has already asked me if it will engrave rocks…

There’s a lot of strong women who married guys on this forum

My opinion is the guys got lucky, and I’ve been blessed to meet some of them. Guys and gals alike

Been a fun journey
