Description These are machine cut out of old recycled computer circuit board by myself. The black squares at the middle are hynix memory chips and they are dual sided.

These measure: 25x15mm (1x0.6in), the hooks add a little more.

These can make a wonderful gift for geeks, let your inner geek shine!

They can be purchased at my etsy [link] , also more photos there.

It only seems that way, they aren't scorched, and no it wasn't done with the laser, but with an other machine that doesn't use heat.
I've made other shapes like hearts around video card cores and such but kinda blew them.
Still didn't have time to go score for more used hardware to play around with

you choose boards that don't have many chips on them or you clean them out manually?
I actually have access to stores that I can take their trash, what I lack is the time to get to those stores :3

no i have to clean all that stuff off myself. a torch works good once you've taken off plastic parts to remove pegs but has to be done carefully. you have to heat just the metal parts and keep the flame away from the board.
