You DID NOT TEACH ME HOW TO SEND TO LASER

******* ( IF YOU MAKE YOUR POINTER LARGER OTHERS MIGHT SEE IT! )

so helpful! thank u

Hello Heather ! thank you so much for this very informative video. After I expand vectorisation, the image has a white background and not a transparent background. Hence when I try to put two layers together (both of which I did up to the expand vectorisation stage), I can’t see both as they have white background. Is there any way to fix this? Thanks so much for your time!!

So much fun😂

You're such an awesome teacher, I love how you simplify everything! Thank you so much!! Blessings!!!

Another great video! Thanks for the helpful info.

🎉

Very good techniques!

Dooring or was that Doareeng?

Great projects. ❤

Finally someone who can explain clearly and fully how this works without distracting special effects and music. Thank you so much!!! I'm going to check your other videos now

Hey Heather! Haven't seen you in a while. Somehow you fell off of my favorites list. Hope you and your family are well! Blessings!!!

This is awesome! So glad I found your channel. I have a question, I want to divide my text/word into three portions so I can cut it on my glowforge aura. Is this possible on the ipad? I am fairly new and have not been able to find a way to do this. Can you help with this?

So usefull, thank you! Definitly trying this 😊

Wow! Can the same technique be used on painted/stained wood or acrylic?

Thank you for sharing, this by far has been the best tutorial I have watched and learned a great deal on. Thank you for saving me hours of headaches! Awesome Info

Don't you ever loose some of those tiny pieces? I hate loosing the dots on the i! Any tip for that? 😊

You were reading my mind! I want to make some stakes for birth month plants we bought my mom for Mothers Day to identify which grandkid each plant corresponds to and knew that it wouldn’t be as easy as typing out text!

Ohh I didn’t know you can just copy and paste into LB. That’s awesome. So the letters are not automatically welded to eachother? IDK why I have such a hard time wrapping my head around what a stroke it. I don’t like is. 🤣 Thank you for the tutorial! I’m starting to get more comfortable with AI finally!

😢😢❤❤

Hi Heather, it's very hard to engrave acrylic that deep and get clean results. I only engrave deep when making acrylic stamps, in that case I engrave with normal focus the 1st pass and defocus the 2nd pass to clean up any remaining lines. Those visual lines are normally related to the engraving lines overlapping. I don't believe is possible to engrave that deep at 400 DPI without line overlap... My 2 cents are, use minimum power that way you get the thinnest engraved line/dot and play with DPI/LPI to find the best results, also like you I defocus 2mm (Pros: Better quality. Cons: Longer engraving time because of Higher DPI) Remember Higher Power and/or Defocus will engrave thicker lines, so you will need to decrease the DPI/LPI (Pros: Faster engravings. Cons: Lower quality) Some people also uses a fine layer of dishwasher and get good results, didn't try this because I'm very happy with my results. My best engraving machine is the k40 because the 35w tube have a really thin laser beam and in low power can engrave at 500 DPI easily, my 100w at minimum power I engrave only at 250 DPI or lower. Take my tips with a grain of salt, every machine is different. Only trial and error will get you to a quality you're happy with. This is my job for +10 years ☺ Best of Luck with your channel, you got a new subscriber. Greetings from Portugal.

Another great video Heather. Love learning these little tricks. Didn't know you could adjust the Z axis in Lightburn. Awesome!

Thank you so much, you are the best!

Great information!

This is not sending to the laser!! This is simply pressing play. Wasted my time trying to learn to. "send" to the laser

hey i love the tutorial however, i want to make keychain offsets of an image which is image traced, because if we offset it directly the small pixels made by the image trace options shatter and makes a mess. so is there any way i can make outlines for that it would be helpfull💖

thanks a lot for helping me out

Very helpful video. I have a glowforge aura so it only cuts 12". Do you have a video that shows how to cut font in 2 pieces so it's small enough to print? I hope that makes sense. What I'm trying to cut is a continuous 18" and i need to cut it in half to use the laser.

Great video!! Very informative

Thank you for this tutorial I just downloaded the adobe illustrator and you have saved me a lot of time learning we just few steps!

Does your computer have to be in the same room as your laser? Or can you use a USB to do designs?

Hi. I have been working with a Chinese laser for the past 7 years and using coreldraw for my designs since it has a macro that sends my graphics directly to the laser without the need to convert it to SVG format. Lately i decided to switch to illustrator since it has more tools. I stumbled upon your youtube channel after searching for a tutorial and i love it!!! you are great and so clear in your tutorials.

Happy Easter too!🐣

What you are showing will not result in the laser cutting a dashed line. Instead, it will cut what looks like a row of very small rectangles. This is because when you expanded the dashed line, it turned it into the outline of the shape that it formed on the screen. When you go to cut this in the laser, it is going to cut a very small rectangle in every spot where it should be cutting a straight dash. This will not work for creating a proper perforated line.

Had no idea this feature existed. Love it. Great video!

Very nice❤❤❤❤

Great video but can you tell me how you can stretch the letters on illustrator on the ipad please?

You're amazing! Thank you!

Love this thank you

Would the smooth tool be better for smoothing out the lines?

What type of woods were you using, they are beautiful! (Curious if you use stains & veneers or simply just the plywood). Also, do you apply the 3M backing to sheets by hand or there is a faster way? Thank you so much!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!! So very helpful!!
