Engraved Wood / Marble Christmas Present - Opinions Needed

[kstatefan40]

Hey,

During the last few weeks, I have been pulled out of Computer Applications I (a very simple high school computer class) to do some work for the school's shop teacher in excel for state ciriculum requirements. Today he told me that as soon as I got the state stuff done, he would let me go back and play with the school's laser burner (basically a printer that engraves stuff in wood or marble). He said he would let me make a christmas present for my parent on it. I walked back, and immediately a peice of wood with a powercat (my family are obviously kstate fans) caught my eye. It looked awesome.

So my question for you guys is this:
Which would you prefer, the original look of marble or the classic look of wood?

It will be for hanging purposes indoors most likely. Thanks for any opinions!

I went for wood , I did a few plaques in the 80s in wood shop and I still love the look that it gives out.

Thanks for your opinion bawb.

well to put it simply, if the marble you use matches the decor of the home, then it would simply be for a lack of a better word, pimped

[kstatefan40]

Also, any opinions on what it should say on it?

Thanks again, TT

I went for marble. It just sounded cool!

Gotta love Peyton Manning, eh Bob .

Anyway, I like the wood look myself.

[Propain]

Peyton Manning wasnt the problem , it was Plummer not showing up against the lowly Raiders

ps: yo TT did you ever consider glass? GLASS

[glc]

I wouldn't have showed up either in that snowstorm.

[mbossman2]

i prefer the more organic look and feel of wood.

Marble looks really classy.... wood looks awesome.... glass looks fantastic
Work out where you want it placed, and then see what'd fit in the best
