i have seen the effect used on softwood business cards, just be sure to practice on something other than your skateboard first! i think it would look cool if you did the whole iron branding thing and then varnished over it or sprayed around it into some artwork.. OR what about creating a logo stencil out of iron and blow torching over it, it will give you a more predictable and controllable result if you wanted to reproduce it. it would work well if you intend to make that mark your 'Business Brand' so u could do other peoples boards too. you could probably get something reasonably intricate cut from sheet metal by a engineering firm, tell them your a student and its part of your end of year project and i'm sure you will get a freebie or discount, works for me everytime... hehehehehe
