Hi folks,

I want to thank you all for the helpful suggestions and the mini education. I did a fair amount of googling in response to the ideas presented and learned quite a bit.

Given my...

Hi folks,

I hope everyone had a healthy and happy holiday.

I've been banging my head on this for a little while and haven't come up with a solution I like. How would you recommend that I...

I hate to be the person who states the obvious - but one other cause of burning/scorching on the bottom could be soot buildup on your honeycomb. It may be time to clean that as well.

I'd love to try it... count me in please.

You are getting lots of good advice in this thread (I never would have known that was Bar Code 39!), but it sounds like at this point that you are "fighting the tool". Yes, corel has it built in,...

Very generous. Please count me in.

Can I offer a bit about my work process (when dealing with sheet materials)... which I suspect is similar to how others work - I have copied from the best here at SMC and added my bits here and...

Steve,

Somehow I missed this post. Since I was one of those to PM you for this info, I wanted to say thank you for taking the time to respond. I'll give this a run through as soon as I have a...

I've been trying to get my mirror engraving skills up to par... and am struggling.

I can't get an Epilog 45w to get the right balance where I am taking the backing off without also etching the...

This suggestion is what Epilog recommends on it's website.

I'm still using the standard epilog honeycomb grid for most of my cutting and have the same issue with quality of plywood. I spend a lot of time readjusting and using corian cutoffs as weights (and...

I believe there are a couple of approaches I have seen people use. One is to reduce the spacing between letters and merge the letters together (I believe Corel calls it welding?).

My approach...

So the answers I have gotten here make sense...

* Reusable stencils are out.
* Cast versus Extruded won't likely matter in this application. (Thickness is controlled by the customer's...

I've just gotten an opportunity for a commercial order for acrylic work. If my sample passes muster, the job is mine.

The application is letter squares - clear acrylic squares about 18 inches...

At the risk of stating the obvious or discouraging your creativity... mixing magnets with electronics or any kind of computing device strikes me as a very bad idea... just my two cents.

So I have a dumb question. I've approached a number of Leo types... And each place I've offered to engrave (cuffs, magazines,etc) I'm basically shown the hand scrawled metal etching result... Along...

This is one of those things that I always forget... but George is exactly right. 72 Dots Per Inch of course means simply measure and multiple by 72. I had to do this last week and ended up...

Unique, eye-catching... nicely done. Makes me wish I had a stack of cedar available... :)

If you are using Illustrator CS3 or above, then you don't need a plug in to create a cut line, it is available natively with Illustrator. Often I have a piece of artwork that I want to raster, and...

Hi Jim

I'm also looking for your LED ideas... I have a similar quandry about the prom favors.

I tried PMing you, but I don't seem to be able to get through and your profile doesn't have a...
