Laser Engraved Project






My second laser engraving was a sign that I was trying to make for my friend. I started out by going online to look for an American flag that was black and white so I would be able to just print it without having to change the colors. Then I was looking for a different name to put on the sign, so I found a random name generator and got "The Thief Quarters".






 I had to Choose what I would put in front of the words so that they would actually show up on the material that I was engraving on. I ended up cutting the flag off and using it separately from the other project.

Laser Engraved Business Cards


These are the business card that I have made from balsa wood and using the laser engraver. What I started out with doing was taking a measurement of the piece of wood to find out how many cards I can fit on one piece of wood. when I got done measuring the wood I started out by making a design on adobe illustrator and fitting it onto the wood. After I got the design in the right place I could save it onto a flash drive and upload it to the laser engraver and put a                piece of wood onto the metal screen of the laser engraver. It then cut out the cards and burnt out the words onto the wood.
