From hobby to workshop
The story behind R&R Laserforge
Rob Wells started R&R Laserforge after retiring from the Army and looking for something to keep him busy. What began as a hobby to fill his free time quickly turned into something more, as friends and family started asking for custom engraved gifts of their own. That's actually where the name comes from: R&R stands for Rest and Relaxation, since that's what Rob was looking for when he picked it up.
Based in Dixon, Missouri, R&R Laserforge specializes in custom laser engraved cutting boards, cups, tumblers, and leather wallets, each one made to order and personalized for the occasion. Rob brings the same discipline and attention to detail he learned in the Army to every project, making sure each piece is something the customer is proud to give or keep for themselves.
Whether it's a wedding gift, a retirement present, or something special for someone who's hard to shop for, R&R Laserforge is built on a simple idea: a handmade, personalized gift means more than something bought off a shelf.
Why we do it
To create custom, high quality laser engraved gifts that turn everyday items into lasting keepsakes, built with the same care and discipline learnt through years of military service.
