A Skateboard with money design engraved on wood using a Vision 2550 CNC Router
This is my Make Money Skate Board which has a US dollar look to it. It's marketing piece made to attract attention yet still show the benefits of our product, that being engraving & routing machines.
The skateboard was cut out and engraved on a 2550 CNC Router, the design was all made on CorelDraw than exported as a PDF, which was than imported into Vision PRO Engraving software.
Skateboard wooden blanks can be purchased online for around $20.00 add in little elbow grease and you get a great promotional piece, and a good excuse to ride a skateboard at work lol.
The top of the skateboard has acrylic inlays which was cut out using a 1624 engraver, again going with the Money motif we have the dollar symbol on both ends and a modified US Dollar graphic also on acrylic inlayed in the center.
I'm not in the skateboard industry so I'm not sure how skateboards are really made, but I can imagine laying out a bunch of blanks and letting the CNC router do all the work. These longboard style
skateboards go for about a $100.00 to $200.00, so spending $20.00 on a skateboard blank seemed like pocket changed as opposed to buying a skateboard than cutting out the dollar graphic on this new skateboard.
Also having the actual shape of the skateboard routed out with our machine shows another benefit.
