Beastly FX began in 2024, as the United States was emerging from the COVID nightmare. My wife and I were looking for a side hustle, so I bought a small desktop laser and tried my hand at bringing some of my dark(ish) visions to life.
We began creating lightly dark, laser-engraved art and selling it at local craft fairs. Our original product line consisted of coasters, flasks, and Frightlights. That was it.
Since then, the shop—and our collection of equipment—has continued to grow. We added an 80-watt CO₂ laser, a 3D printer, and now our first UV printer. It seems the learning curve never ends, but neither do the possibilities.
Craft fairs are still our bread and butter, but we’re opening an Etsy shop to reach new customers, put all those tools to good use, and work toward making Beastly FX our full-time retirement gig.
Welcome to our little corner of the internet. Thanks for stopping by, and for taking the time to read our story!
