Quickly Preparing Photos for Laser Engraving - The EASY way! | LIT Tutorials 

Trying this now, I’ve had a nightmare with image being terrible sometimes non existent, I have set it up as you have done but on slate thabks in advance I’ll let you know 👍🙏💥

Interesting

@@mikesayer2537so how’d u do?

Glad I could help you in any way :)

You need a product called Ceramark to engrave on a non power coated steel mug (like a Yeti)

Thank you!

For sure! Ill do a video of the advance feature in the near future and show results next time. For acrylic, I keep my speed a tad bit faster than for wood, and I use around 12.5% on a 60W laser (dont mind the power and speed in the video as everyone will have different settings, thats why I didnt bother explaining it in this video). For clear acrylic, the trick is to have the lowest power possible while still being able to see your engraving. The laser machine I am using is built by me :) I might do a video of that in the future as well. Stay tuned!

@@laserillusionstech I hope you do that video soon, would relly like to see it, and the settings

If you convert your image to png it will load as an image, at least on lightburn.

Is your machine a Diode laser? Im using a CO2 machine and my settings are optimized for CO2. This does not create a vector image. It just dithers the image for you (creates it into thousands of little dots that can be engraved - ie: laser power is either on or off).

Please can you do a update. I use to do it without any issues but now since the updates with the site it’s weird and funky and a bit confusing

Hello! Are you using Google Chrome, or another Web browser?

Hmmm interesting. Are you using google chrome as your web browser? Also, make sure to do everything in order.

Try tapping the empty box, and it should show up

It will charge you $5.00. The developer of imagr is from Austria. They use "," instead of "." in most parts of Europe (like Austria) to seperate the integral with the decimal.

@@laserillusionstech thanks for the reply I will purchase. Fast and easy to use site

@tammy This is an old video. Imag-r looks completely different now. Are you downloading as svg or bmp? Downloading as svg from imag-r does not work, that might be why its taking so long to download. Lightburn has actually added a new feature that will enable you to edit your image on the spot, and I would recommend that feature now as opposed to using imag-r since there is no "1 setting" for an image. Ill try to do a video on this Lightburn feature soon :) Ive just been very busy with life lately :)

Not anymore!

haha that made me laugh :) Thanks Ill try not to be sick next time.

Did bmp workout better for u?

As I said in pinned comment, this video is 3 years old and is outdated. I made this video when lightburn did not have a great way of editing photos for engraving and imag-r was the easiest choice for people that did not have photo editing experience.
