Thanks George!
Good idea, thanks!
Thanks David,
yes that is only engraved not color filled, some areas look darker than others, I hear what you saying and that is kinda what I was thinking as well, to brush something on the case...
I etch very small details on bamboo, so masking it with tape and then paining sounds great until I will need to remove the mask, PITA!!
Below is what I etch.

I googled about Powder coat paint and laser etching, didnt find the procedure, could you tell me what kind of powder? I saw Harbor Freight sells different colors of powder paint, is that the same...
Thank you for response, I guess I am looking for something to put on the wood before etching, make it resistible to acrylic paint, then paint and once it drys, rub it off with some sort of other...
Hey friends,
I am doing some Bamboo work and I wanted to find out if anyone has tried to color fill it, the way I have tried it works OK is car wax (all I had at home) on the wood, then etching it,...
I see, I guess when the time is right, I will look more into the 6" and 8", thanks!
I found this seller through another thread and was surprised by the price, is this too good to be true?
Thanks!
I dont have one, from the specs on Microsoft`s site, it should run the program, but 4GB of memory is a little small (in my opinion) and its not upgradeable , and for super expensive machine to run...
You know what would be really awesome? if someone made a macro for mural, where you can select the over all size, tile size, gap size and hit GO.

Im sorry I dont remember all of them, but I wrote down as much as I can.
Scott, I might have wrote it wrong, but I used 100speed not power, I used 40 power
So, after much trial and error I finally got decent etching with very very minimal banding, Check out the first photo, I intentionally made it darker in photoshop so you can see the banding better, I...
I understand, thank you!
Thanks Dee and Scott, I will post results.
But heres another question, if I try ti use 80-90% black, isent lowering the power or speeding up the speed will cause the same results?
I was under the impression that banding only happens in images and not in vectors art? I know with photos you need to match the DPI for it not to band, what about vector art?
I got some macbook pro tops, I etched some random vector art on it (RGB black) and where there is alot (I mean not just line, like a solid circle like the photo) I see this banding looking effect...
Bruce,
I think CD v11 converts it to BMP because IL will open it just fine and it is a vector.
Mark, "Reload CDR V 11" is that for me or Bruce?
Martin, you are clicking on the wrong download...
=(
Thank you for the trying!
Every now and again, I find really nice vectors online and they are made for Illustrator but they are still .EPS, I searched everywhere and I cant find how to open it in Corel, when I do open it,...
I have seen online people engrave the ipad all the way to the edge with 1 run of the laser, i would love to know how they do it, mine gets out of focus and the curve.
Yes, they are anodized (like colorful dog tags), so you can just laser that away, the same with Macbook pro and Macbook Air, after you engrave it you will see this gray color, looks good (I think),...
Glen, thanks for responding. I am not a mechanical kind of person either so I dont have the skills to design one, but I can follow instructions of a built.
