Laser Engraving Sunshine Coast

BYO Items Welcome

Arrange a time to bring your own item in and we’ll engrave it with a crisp, permanent finish. From names and initials to logos, handwriting, and detailed artwork, we create personalisation that looks premium and lasts.

Whether you’re updating a favourite drink bottle, adding a logo to team gear, or turning a meaningful message into something you can hold, we make the process simple: drop off, approve the design proof, pick up.

How it works

  1. Bring your item in (or message us first if you’re not sure it’s suitable).
  2. Choose your engraving: name, text, logo, icon, handwriting, or artwork.
  3. We prepare a proof for approval so you know exactly how it’ll look.
  4. Engraving happens with a clean, durable finish.
  5. Pick up locally once it’s ready.

Turnaround

Most simple name engravings are fast. Detailed artwork, multiple items, or custom design work can take longer. If you’ve got a deadline (birthday, school return, end-of-year gifts), tell us up front and we’ll confirm what’s realistic.

Frequently asked questions

Can I bring my own item?

Yes. This page is specifically for BYO engraving.

Will the engraving wash off or fade?

Engraving is permanent. Results depend on the item’s coating/material, but the mark itself does not peel like a sticker or print.

Do you engrave brand-name bottles?

We engrave many popular styles of bottles and tumblers. Bring yours in and we’ll confirm suitability and placement.

Can you engrave small details (like a logo)?

Yes! Our lasers can engrave down to 0.05mm so we can engrave incredible detail (material dependant). Clean vector files help, but we can usually work with high-quality images too.
