To me this video doesn't really cover how to get the "frosty" look, more so how to verify the placement of the art work. Maybe I am missing something.....?

Speed power dithering dpi and 80 on the gray scale. You can go a little darker color and it won’t be as nice or faster speed. Best of luck!

Great video Matt!! just out of curiousity, do you have a walk out basement? would like to setup my basement as a workshop but I don't think I'll be able to get a laser machine like your blue one down the stairs as its around 375lbs plus the weight of two guys bringing it down and the staircase holding the weight. Was wondering how you set the lasers up down there. Might have to use my garage but my basement has more room. Thanks!

Blue tape saved my bacon when engraving a logo on champagne flutes. I had a round logo and forgot to allow for the curvature of the glass. My test on blue tape reminded me and saved having to replace the customer’s glasses.

You have to measure the bottle and put those measurements as your page size. Then do a test run to make sure it works.

300 speed 25 power light air assist 254 lpi and if you want result that stays very very nice not so frosty maybe but clean no chipping use brass with battery drill there is a video youtube also. I must say my first test and it did not miss it freaking nice, btw i used dish soap (fairy) just in case, later washed it clean. It came out very beautiful (90w reci tube and RMLaser)

Hey Matt- love the flag! Question for you about the dithering- (you're not the first person I've heard reference this and I can't figure it out) Using just a font on Lightburn and Thunder laser, how do I adjust the 'grayscale' or dithering? I cannot seem to find the answer anywhere. TIA!

@laserengravingwithmatt 6 ай бұрын

Hello and thanks. So this was done in my Epilog and that’s what Epilog uses. If I did it in my thunder laser it would be in the speed settings and you would adjust the line interval. I use 500 speed and 15 power and .08 LI and I like to focus in to 4mm to the object

first you said power way up, 30$ speed. then you said speed as fast as would go and power low? which is it? I get it. you burned the glue to the glass that allowed the laser to etch on the second pass. clarify you speed plz!

@laserengravingwithmatt Жыл бұрын

When you burn the glass just the glass is 30 speed hundred percent power. When you are etching the tape so you don’t burn the glass you would go 100% speed in 12% power. The tape is only used to make sure the etching is in the right spot.

@Scatootle 16 күн бұрын

I'm sorry, but this was a complete waste of time. If you have to use tape to line up and center an image on a rectangle, then you shouldn't be laser engraving. Also, you engraved the front side, which has a terrible feel when finished, you should have reversed it and engraved the back. I will however agree with the 80% black for glass, but you didn't explain that was what gave you the "Frosty" look.
