Which technologies are the best to use when decorating wood?

There are many technologies that lend themselves to wood, starting with traditional hand cutting, sanding, and carving tools, to power tools such as saws and sanders. Other technology like computer-controlled CNC machines are also popular because they can cut and shape wood into most sizes including large-scale products. This type of system can transform wood into just about any shape including plaques, boxes, full-size furniture, and much more.

Laser technology offers the same great features of these other methods but with even greater capabilities. Compared to other processing systems, laser machines go beyond some of their limitations by being able to produce fine details such as text, dimensional logos, and even high-resolution photos directly onto the surface of wood.
