This engraved cherry keychain makes for a wonderful personalized gift! The example shown is my cat's heartbeat that I generated from a recording, but I could also make it from the image of an ECG, or from an image of the heartbeat on a sonogram.
The back of the keychain can also be custom engraved with a birthdate, coordinates, or any other text or numbers.
The wood part of the keychain measures approximately 2.25" by 0.75". The cherry wood is sourced from street trees in the western Michigan area that have been removed due to construction or storm damage -- not their timber value. After I pick out the wood at the sawmill, I personally process it through a long series of planing and sawing steps, and I finally laser cut it and apply a hand-rubbed oil finish.
Because wood is a natural material, there is some variation in the wood grain and color therefore no two keychains will ever be exactly alike. Several examples are shown to illustrate some differences you might see in the walnut wood grain.
**How to send me the heartbeat for engraving**
If you have an image of it from an ECG readout or from a sonogram, you can attach it in a message to me on Etsy. If you have a recording, please send it to: soundwave.eastonwoodworks [!at] gmail.com
My biggest priority is making sure that what you purchase is exactly what you are looking for, so please feel free to message me with your ideas and I'd be happy to draw up the design for you before I make it. It would bum me out if you receive something that you aren't happy with because you were nervous to contact me about it, so trust me when I say I am happy to help. :)
**Frequently Asked Questions**
--Can the engraved soundwave be converted back into audio with an app?
Unfortunately no it cannot. The amount of detail needed is far finer than can be engraved onto a wood keychain even for a one second long recording. Think about how large a vinyl record has to be, and despite that size the grooves are so small that they are barely visible. A good solution is to have the words spoken in the recording engraved on the back, or even have the URL of a recording engraved on the back.
--Can the keychain be made with darker wood, or a smaller keychain?
I have several listings available for soundwave keychains (as well as necklaces) available on the Etsy shop and I'd be happy to make any of them with a heartbeat engraving. Check out my shop page for more options.
