Trotec UK do sell laser wood which is veneered...

So a local joiner planed my beams and I'm pretty pleased with the results! All I have to do now is give it all a light sanding and finish it with something.

What are your suggestions for...

I bought my Zing from Mat Kirwin at CSI a couple of years ago and must say he is a great person to deal with! thankfully haven't had any problems so far, but I think this is down to the build quality...

Scott,

I like the idea of the beams moving and splitting a bit, I think they will look nice and rustic against the stainless steel base.

I've had the beams in my kitchen for 3 days now,...

Thanks for all the advice Scott.

I was speaking to a joinery place nearby and they seemed to think that they could plane them for me! They make oak staircases etc.

But I didn't mention to them...

Well the salvage dealer said it was outside for about a year, and it's been in his shed for nearly a year now drying. It's got quite a few splits in it, and it's moved a good bit, so was thinking...

Hi,

I've been a member on here for a couple of years now, but hang out in the engraver section!

I've bought some large oak beams that I want to turn into a tabletop for a high bench style table...

I've tried cleaning the disc, but no change.

Everytime I try to download X3 from cnet it just starts downloading X5!?

So I wiped my laptop recently and went to reinstall Corel Draw X3 from the disc and it says 'error reading setup initialization file'. :confused:

Is there any way around this? Is there anywhere to...

This has annoyed me for too long!!

I'm trying to import an image into engravelab, then laser onto slate.
Everytime I go to import and select the jpeg image, then drag out on the page for the size...

I made some wedding invitations and other things for my sisters wedding with nearly the same detail.
If you tape together 4-5 sheets and try to fit 2 designs to a sheet you'll cut your time down a...

Not only does it stink, I've found that the thinner stuff tends to curl and shrink a bit when cutting small shapes! I cut the shapes I need by hand and raster on any detail I want!

I do enjoy some of the features included with CD, the vector trace tool is one of the best I know of! If Epilog would hurry up and bring out a mac print driver my world would be complete!!

Well done! You've put me even more in the mood for the wedding market if your making so much $$$!!

Do you print directly from illustrator to your galvo ( if so how)? I'm getting feed up going from...

Jit - By breaking even do you mean you have recouped the cost of your galvo already?!

Thanks Dee! most of the time is spent on the computer sorting out vector paths etc!
I've worked with two tone...

There is a bit, but not as bad as I thought it was going to be, might sound silly, but I've kind of grown to like burn marks!
I'll try and put take some more pics when I've got the new design...

I've been experimenting with my sisters wedding invitations and managed to cut lasering time down a lot by cutting 5 sheets at a time!

I've managed to fit 2 designs on a single A4 sheet, then I...

Check out grove iphone cases, very high end but give you an idea of what they can sell for!
I have tried various samples from China, but none of them are anywhere near the quality of the grove...

Thanks for all the prompt responses! I'm going to have a day of playing about with focus levels and speed/number of passes. I've been running 100% speed 100% power and results are OK, but I think a...

The new job is on a flat, unlike the picture

Have a job coming up where I want as dark as possible lettering on wood (without filling).
I've tried a few different species of wood, but nothing has come out really dark.

I have been thinking...

Many Thanks!

Anyone know how to stop text being a hyperlink (email link) in corel?

Certainly did the trick!
I would probably rather do all editing on my mac using vector magic and illustrator.

Did u just select all the white bits and change the colour in illustrator?
