Laser Engraving the Nintendo Switch

Update: it has been completed 3/16/2017

So I have only owned my switch for 10 days but I am already going to tattoo the back of it. As of now I have the boundary area where the laser can go without damaging the logo or anything else.

As for the design, I am pretty much set on some sort of Splatoon design but I just have to do a whole bunch of photochopping to see what will look good. If all goes well, I will probably have it all set on Thursday.

Oh, and if anyone wants a DXF or a Corel Draw template of the boundary area just leave A comment and Il put the most up to date one on Thingiverse. (for the NA version, looks like other regions have slightly different marking layouts so the design may overlap)

  1. Saw your post. Am looking to get some custom engraving for a Switch for a friends birthday. Do you do them for a fee?

    • I do engrave others Switches for free but due to the nature of putting expensive electronics in a machine that can destroy them faster than you can blink, I only do them if the owner can make it personally to the laser to observe. Its just not a process I am too comfortable with doing. If you happen to be in the New England area or if you want to take a trip I could definitely set something up.
