@michelleee8012 2 года назад

Hiiii ! I just bought a glow forge , I’m curious of the reason why you engraved the back side? Is it because it may be dangerous to engrave the front since it’s kinda a mirror ? Could you cover the front in the masking tape and engrave the front ?

@LisaPottsDesigns 2 года назад

Hi Michelle! No specific reason, many people engrave on the front. I liked the look of the name "inside" the acrylic, rather than it sitting on top with the mirror effect. You could 100% engrave the front, just make sure to mask!

Jump rings are really pretty easy...take 2 flatnose pliers and hold your jump ring one each side of the split with your pliers. Twist in opposite directions...one toward you one away from you. When ready to close it up just do the opposite. Do not pull it apart...it’s more of a twisting motion. Hope this helps 😊

@SabineOh 3 года назад

Needed this video! I've been doing my keychains a little differently but this is the method I really wanted to learn. One thing I didn't understand, if you can clarify, was why you were working on the backside of acrylic. oppose to the mirrored side. I feel like this is important but didn't quite get it.

@LisaPottsDesigns 3 года назад

I wanted the name to be a bit darker. When you engrave the backside, it takes the mirror reflection from the name. Both sides have their benefits, so I suggest doing tiny test cuts to find your preference. 🥰

Yes and no. What I do for myself is set up the bulk of the design and save it as a .studio file before welding anything! If you are doing a specific distance for the offset, I write that as a note using the notepad feature.

what is the thickness on the acrylic you are using?

@LisaPottsDesigns 3 года назад

This acrylic is 1/8 inch thick. However, going forward I am going to stack this on top of a white piece of 1/8 acrylic for added stability.

For some reason when I go to save the file it does not give me the option to save as an SVG

@LisaPottsDesigns 3 года назад

You will need to have the Business Edition upgrade to export as SVG. It's a one-time fee, and totally worth it.

When I try to save in Silhouette Studio it doesn’t give me the option for SVG?

@francesvr 3 года назад

I upgraded to Business edition to solve that problem but now when I save to SVG and get on Glowforge the engraving isn’t showing up? Any suggestions?

@LisaPottsDesigns 3 года назад

Is it not showing up in the software, or when you engrave?

@francesvr 3 года назад

It shows up in silhouette but not in Glowforge

Is the Inline fan something that is Mandatory

@LisaPottsDesigns 3 года назад

Not at all! It simply makes the machine quieter and pushes the air out more. Your hose out the window is more than enough.

can this be done with cricut?

@LisaPottsDesigns 3 года назад

Unfortunately, no. This acrylic needs to be cut with a laser cutter. Additionally, Cricut doesn't allow you to export svg files.

I can’t find to cut my mirror acrylic it’s burning my acrylic

@LisaPottsDesigns 3 года назад

Try increasing your speed or decreasing your power!

Every time I cut mirrored acrylic, the nice side gets burn marks...

@LisaPottsDesigns 3 года назад

It sounds like your power is too high. Can you try speeding it up?
