Hello

It's been a while i don't visit Saw Creek. Hope you're all well.
I'm back because i need some urgent help to get a book vector or bitmap file for memorial art, like the ones, or, similar, on the attached file.

Thank's in advance.

Regards

Last year, someone posted a good collection of vector memorial art in a .zip file I think.. It was primarily for cutting sandblast masks, but some tweaking/joining/filling/manipulating should let them work on a laser.. Try a search using 'memorial' and see what comes up

Hello, Miguel,
We are manufacturing impact engravers for stone engraving. With each unit we supply free clip art CD which is below. The problem I see is that our equipment work with raster pictures and all files are prepared for Photoshop. But may be it will be helpful for you.

We also have some sample files for download. There is few files made specially for US market

And I have found in my archives good set of Italian monuments and tombstones. Really can't remember how I get this set :)

SORRY, our clip art CD is 320 mb packed, and Italian catalogue is 32 Mb packed :( Any idea about best way to share them?

Drop.io is a good site for sharing large files.

Hello to all

Thanks for your answer to my request.

Victor, i've already visited your website, i think i've received an email from your company. I'm triying to open your website but it isn't working...
Do you sell the cd for how much?

Viktor,

I'm sure many here would be interested in the files you mentioned. Contact Keith and maybe you guys can work something out... maybe he'll include it in the DVD he recently released that contained all files from SMC to date.

Viktor,

I downloaded a few of your files and they are interesting to say the least. I have not tried to engrave any of them.

It appears that you have one poor resolution greyscale bitmap over a second 1-bit bitmap of the same image.......is this some sort of secret to getting a good engraving on granite/marble?

Steve, this clipart was made for our impact engraving equipment for stone. There is special requirement for file preparation in this case, as process of imaging on stone is different from lasering and sandblasting. But many customers use this images for lasering and sandblasting without any problem.

It's an interesting concept......I'll engrave one and see how it turns out.
