Another long video full of tons for information and ideas to improve and customize otherwise plain SVG's. I added my Hobo flair to a rather humdrum SVG with decreased LPI and varying the scan angels on different layers within the design. Improving a piece like this can be a little time consuming, but once you've done it and saved it, no one will have a design like yours.

It's such a nice change to watch someone give useful information, instead of "look what I made - do you want to buy it?"
I am happy to teach how to make the projects I sell. Showing start to finish takes a while. My videos are longer than average. My prices on my files are also higher than average. But, once people see how much work I put into them to make them 100% Lightburn friendly and the best they can be, folks appreciate the value they are getting. Then again, you may not like the actual design I'm demonstrating, but the techniques can be used in your own designs.
Hi Steve I don’t have enough fingers and toes to say how much I have learned in this video.
Steven 🇬🇧👍👍👍👍👍👍
I never fail to learn from you. Your ability to share with your fellow laseroligist's is what makes you a treasure.
Hi Steve, just tuned in to learn about LPI and Scan Angles and learnt a whole lot more on top, thank you for the great work that you do to help us all
Glad it was helpful!
Hi Steve. another great video. That is a "flap", used to cover a screen vent from rain, as you said.Good job again!
Love your designs! 😂 You do a great job teaching us old geezers!!
Glad you like them!
Yep, this one was again an easy one, if you were in the front row, (like you were I suppose) when they handed out the brains, I guess I was more in the back that day, LOL.Thx for another video with lots of new possibilities using lightburn.
Very cool. Really appreciate seeing how you developed the depth using the scan angles and LPI settings. Very helpful. Also got quite a bit out of seeing the editing process, particularly some of the commands in the node edit section. Hadn't thought about deleting nodes as a way to get things to align -- makes sense seeing how that worked out.
Glad it was helpful!
Nice job HOBO, Steve, now you HAVE to do one with a 5th WHEEL, a CLASS "A" and a CLASS "C". I think you have really started something. hehe
I hadn't planned on doing that... but over time, it wll probably end up that way.
Another great instructional video. Thanks, Steve.
Very welcome
Another great job, Steve!
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for the video. I like that you use the fill angle to simulate the material direction giving and added dimension. I will use that in the future.
Tip for you. When wanting to just show the outline of your object, instead of turning off fill in each layer, just tlgo to the Window menu and change the view style from fill to wireframe..
Thanks again
I've never thought of switching to wire frame. I'll have to check that out.
Thank you Hobo!!!
Our pleasure!
If you like the sparkle paint look up unicorn spit. Sounds crazy but it is a stain/gel with flakes in the paint. I use their blue all the time it looks great!
I'll check it out.
That looks really good 👍🏽
Thank you 😋
Nicely done!
Thanks!
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it
Another great one Steve. How did you stop the laser, make the mods then restart without it finishing the engrave first then going back to the piece you wanted to change?
1.) press the stop laser button in laser controls.
2.) corrected the settings in the desired layer.
3.) with the only the last two layers set to output, resend the job.
@@HoboWithWood awesome Thanks Steve
I'll try that tomorrow
@15:25, why is it necessary to duplicate the yellow layer in order to cut it out from the black layer? Can't you just select the 2 layers, subtract and get the same effect?
The duplicate was created to create the path the needed to be deleted from the sideof the tent. If you didn't duplicate it the rope/yellow layer would have disappeared after the subtraction. This would've left a void where the rope would be. By creating the duplicate it allows me to create the void needed and still have the shape of the rope to put on a separate layer for it's own engraving settings. If you don't create the void in the black layer, it would have filled the entire area with the settings of the black layer and then the yellow layer would have engraved on top of the black layer creating a double burn and not producing the desired outcome.
@@HoboWithWood Oh got it (I think!). Thank you Steve!
