Step by Step

Tip:
Since we are engraving in great detail, using the highest resolution possible is recommended (1000 dpi).
Step 2: Engraving the marble
The first step is the wash the dust off the stone by running it under water. Let the stone dry off, then place it in the laser machine and focus on the surface. If the stone is rounded, focus on the average value of the engraving area. Enter the material parameter settings. The parameters can vary depending on laser machine and available laser power.

Info:
We used a negative offset value. Thereby the surface is exposed to more laser power and the engraving shows more contrast.
Step 3: Cleaning
Clean the stone with a damp cloth, we do not recommend putting it under running water as it will wash off the engraving dust which gives contrast to the engraving and shows better.
Inspiration
Engrave sayings, slogans or quotes on the stones. Your imagination is the only limit.
Personalize the stones with names or dates to add extra value to your design.
