Hello. Does anyone know a way to get rid of or at least lessen the waffle pattern in the attached photo? I used my last 8x10 marble plaque and JDS Industries no longer carries them. I was hoping...
I use keychains, coasters and other premade products, but then I engrave my designs on them. I would like to register for craft shows as handmade as opposed to commercial products. I believe this...
Dee,
These are nice. They don't look like they engraved as deep. I like this better.
Also, yours don't have as much varied coloring because they are smaller.
Did you paint the pink one and...
Would Unstik work to separate the bamboo coaster holder into individual parts?
I found these dispensers while looking for Unstik. They seem to be less expensive and in stock. Not sure how many...
They are they same settings. The one on the right had a darker wood to begin with.
Here is a photo of my first attempt on the left, my myriad of variations in the middle and my final attempt on the right. After all this I believe I like the first one best because the grain is...
I have been trying to figure out the best way to adjust the laser so it's not so deep. I've increased the speed, lowered the power, lowered the bed to get it out of focus and I'm still getting it...
I did find some companies that had the moulding, but I don't need enough of them in the beginning to purchase the minimum amount. If they sell well and I anticipated needing a large quantity I would...
For this specific product I'm cutting mats out of sheets of alder and would like to have matching frames. I could probably change to different sheets if I can't find alder frames. I'm looking for...
I am engraving mats with cutouts to put in frames, but the only matching frames I find are the 1 1/2" for engraving and these are too wide. I have googled and googled, but don't have any luck...
I see Colorado Heirloom sells 1/4" 12x24 BB for $24. I don't think that would be cost effective for me. Do you know of a place that sells BB sheets 1/8"?
Thank you for the info. I...

Hello. I have been searching for individual bamboo coasters. What I've found so far is it would be easier for me to buy 6 coaster sets (like from JDS) and use them as separate pieces. If anyone...
Thank you all for your input.
I tried it one more time at 100p 1s and it was enough to mess up the material, but not near enough to look good. Bummer. Live and learn.
I also tried using...
What is DNA?
The item is silver plate.
First I tried the standard VL300 driver and chose bare metal marking compound (dark). Looked great. Wiped right off.
Then I tried the VL300 advanced driver and set...
I clean the metal to get rid of the rest of the residue and the marking wipes off. I've tried different power/speed and it always looks great until I clean it. I was reading other posts about this,...
what is mdf?
Thank you all for your responses. I have a lot of chipboard that I'm not using for anything else.
to engrave many at one time? I think I read somewhere (here?) that the person cut out place holders on acrylic in one large sheet (I have 24x12). Does any one have any other ideas? I would like to...
I changed from 300dpi to 600dpi because I engraved them side by side on a sample piece of marble and there is a distinct difference. How would I check that my input-to-output dpi matches?
This is...

Could you give me an idea which materials you have used Cermark for engraving? Have you had success with silver plate? The list of metals that the Cermark will work on is extensive, but I'd...
I have the dpi set at 600. I tried it at 300, but it was too pixelated.
I did pause the machine for a long time. Now I know. Thank you.
How would you change the dithering? I used ULS...
I completed this engraving and realized that when I paused the machine and restarted it (in the same position) it left a very distinct line.
Has this happened to you?
I have a VL300 40watt.
