Do you spray the Mirror with anything before you engrave it? Or when you purchase the mirrors, they have a background that allow you to mirror the image and engrave it from the back?
I get some lines on each kind of mirror I’ve tired so far. I was considering a 2nd pass maybe a bit less power to see if these would be eliminated. What laser and wattage are you using? When you put them on frame with LEDs they look amazing
I make them, check out the short video I uploaded called “let’s make a shadow box” & “How To Make A Shadow Box With LED” I get my frame at the local dollar store and rest from Amazon. Links in the description
Yes you are removing the reflective layer from the back side of the mirror why you need to reflect the image horizontally so it looks right from the front when you look at it
It’s a thin mirror I’ll add a link in the description. You simply remove the reflective material on the back side. Don’t forget to reflect your image horizontally so it shows up the right way on front of mirror
Thank you , They are frames I buy from my local dollar store, I’ll be uploading and video of how I make them soon. Also think I’ll make a cut file for a shadow box made from 3mm Birch
Muchas gracias, saludos desde chile

The engrave shows the lines on the back of the mirror coating. Any way to remove that or other mirrors to buy?

You can elevate the mirror off of the honeycomb to eliminate the flashback.
Yes I almost did that last time. I might even try another source of mirrors see if there’s much difference.

These are amazing! What type of frame did you use? Is it a shallow shadow box frame? (I apologize if you said and I missed it.)
