Engraving pens on Epilog

[Bob Yeager]

This forum is just the BEST!!!

Thank you all for sharing your sources and other technical info. I have had my laser only three weeks and this forum has been the single most helpful source of information to me. I have learned soooo much.

There is so much business out there to be had...we are not threats to each other's business. In my short time in this industry, I have made some new friends.

Thanks again for sharing!

Welcome to SMC. The thread you posted to is 8 years old and most of those people don't post any longer. This may be of some help.

Do you know the blue tape trick? You know the blue painters tape? You can put a little on your pen, turn the power down on your laser to about 5 and run your raster job. The laser will mark the tape but not go through it to cut the pan. Try it on just 1 pen and then you can check your jig and your auto focus feature. It's a cool trick.....

Excellent! I like this idea better than the vector rectangle. Wasn't sure about the tape and the danger of that specific material to the lenses.

LaserBits sells a jig for engraving pens along with a template for CorelDraw.
