The first thing you notice when you walk into a store is the signs. They show off the brand’s personality in big letters. Erik Crowell, who owns Marked & Made in Roanoke, VA, said that making 5-foot store signs wasn’t just about looks; it was also about accuracy, speed, and saving money.
In his video “Making 5’ Store Signs with the OneLaser Hydra 16 | Save Materials with SVGNest,” Erik shows how the OneLaser Hydra 16, a 150-watt CO₂ and 38-watt RF hybrid machine made for serious performance, can handle big projects for a family-run laser-engraving business.
This guide shows you how to make a store sign with a laser engraver, from design and setup to material nesting and finishing. It also shows how SVGNest can help you cut down on waste and make more money.
