In this video we are going to do a basic overview of how to use AI (Midjourney in this example) to create awesome graphics for laser engraving. We will be doing examples with a "simple graphic" and well as a "complex graphic". All of the websites, programs, and tools used in this project are listed below.

Thanks Fred. Funny you mention that the first version of the video I did the other lion as an example (hence why its there) but the footage got cut off halfway through. Same process as the 2nd example! Upscaled it and used the "Norton Wood" method.

Hey, great video. QUESTION, is this the same process used to create dies for embossed seals on art prints? If it's a different process, do you have a video for that or could you explain please? Thanks!

@justinlaser 5 ай бұрын

Theoretical you could do that yes. It would have to be a vector conversion so the first method of the video. Once vectorized you can set it up to be cut as a seal/stamp.

@dasfuerst3788 5 ай бұрын

@@justinlaser Yeah, I get everything to create either vector/bitmap dither. So is a bitmap dither the file needed to create a sculpted die? Also, once you have the custom die made, do I have to find a print shop that does embossing? The process after making the vector img is where I am getting lost. This isnt a topic that I've been able to solve easily, lol

Is the image truly unique or just some image it found on the Internet ie how do you know it’s not something copyrighted?

From what I understand its an amalgamation of different source materials. However, if you use the paid version of Midjourney you have copyright protection.

I was foolishly hoping the tutorial would have been about the lion in the thumbnail, and how to build that relief. What was I thinking? Also, while singing the praises of Imag-r, it might have been a good idea to tell the folks, it doesn't matter how swell the dither is in the example, if you don't get the speed and power right, on the laser, it's all for naught. You might to add that at some point.

@3dPrintCreator Жыл бұрын

Why are you upscaling the image that much and then scaling it down that much? Directly upscaling it to the desired size would give you a much better result.

@justinlaser Жыл бұрын

I prefer the AI upscale results over Photoshop re-sampling. Probably not as big of a deal with the digital art example but when engraving photos upwards of 500/600dpi I need to start much larger.

@3dPrintCreator Жыл бұрын

@@justinlaser interesting. I will do some tests myself to see which will give me the best results. By the way, why do you want images of 500 to 600 dpi to begin with? Depending on the type of laser, I have never seen one that can engrave with a finer detail than 368 DPI. But most of the lasers can't even handle 300 DPI.
