I'll be darned if I know what to call them. They're sort of like shock absorbers.

anywho, I have a pinnacle M25 (same as GCC) and they no longer hold the lid up.

Anyone know what they're called...

I just picked up a relatively new item from JDS. It's a Rosewood Piano Finish plaque and has a really beautiful finish. The catalog states that it's laserable.

Has anyone laser engraved one of...

Most of these oranizations are very proud of their logos and titles and therefore want them represented properly, and rightly so. To insure this they require a license to reproduce items. The USAF...

LOL... what I said is not what you heard... :)

I guess I should have thought twice about how my statment might be interpreted.

I wasn't referring to RFL as being non-profit, I was referring...

I've requested permission to use their logo out of courtesy since it's not required for a non-profit group. I also requested a better logo than is downloadable from their web site but I haven't rec'd...

I have a Pinnacle M and I'm using driver version DV 3.58-2D-02, which is the latest available from the laserpin.com web site.

I haven't used a rotary in a lonnnnngg time so I wanted to review the...

There's some other software that does about the same called Sketch Master. http://www.thinkersoftware.com/

There may be a free, older version. Read the site pages to find out.

Berry Basket is back... sort of... and they are selling what appears to be the majority of their collection at a fire sale price of $29.95 if you download or 49.95 if you want CDs.

Are you "Importing" the PDF? or simply "Opening" it??

I've seen weird things happen with PDFs when you Import them, especially with X3. So "Open" the file. X4 seems to handle importing PDFs much...

I highly recommend 1/8" MDF. It works great in this application.

As others have noted, neither of BerryBasket's web site are working.

Anyone up in the great NorthWest know what happened to them? Will they be back? Maybe they want to sell their business?

I ran across a how-to page for putting a finish on a plaster object. The directions say:
"Apply a coat of varnish followed by a coat of sintered metal/varnish mix. Allow to dry and then burnish with...

Interesting thread...
I recently bought a can of Water-based Poly (Minwax) just to try it out.

My real question comes from reading the can. It specifically says NOT to use steel wool. It states...

Take a trip to WalMart's craft department, or probably any decent craft store, and you'll find some models as you describe. You can then take them apart and make some measurements to create your own....

I got one, but another would be handy.. :)

Thanks.. :)

The last batch of Alder plaques I rec'd from JDS (8x10 and labeled on the back as being Made in Mexico) leaves a distinct line along the glued joint when that area is lasered. It appears that the...

Or for a ready made one, look at the Festive font.

I'm not exactly sure I follow what arrows you're referring to since I seem to be able to see mine just fine in V12, but this appears to work for me.

If it's not convenient to change the...

And BerryBasket.com has some nice designs in pdf formats which can be used in Corel. I consider them to be bargain priced.

There are also so .dxf files on that site which can be imported into Corel. However, the web page gave me an error each time I tried to download one.

I get EPS files quite often, especially from clients with Macs.

Check the pencil icon in the Object Manager and make sure they didn't lock the file.

yep... tuff photograph. You might try the Brightness/contrast control in Corel. On the original .bmp file, increase the brightness about 15 points and reduce the contrast by a like amount. You...

I'll not get into the choice of brands (I'm very satisfied with a Pinnacle M but wish I had more than 25 watts), but I will comment about your location.
As you describe your home, you best make...

hmmmmmm.... According to what is being said here suggests to me that the driver for the laser needs some re-design.

In my driver you set the ppi and then set the parameters for engraves and cuts....
