Step by step guide
Use the following step-by-step instructions to laser engrave and cut a muffin or cupcake case created from TroLase Thins.
Using this guide, you may change the size of the graphic or use materials in different colors. You can use the finished case to store cupcakes, or you can place a candle in a glass in it and use it as a festive decoration.
TroLase Thins Port Wine / Gold (0.5mm thick)
Create your design in a graphics program, or import our template. The sections shaded in black are engraving areas. Define the cutting lines as follows: width - hairline; R - 255; G - 0; B - 0. (In our design, the cutting lines are the snowflakes and border lines.) You can also add text at the bottom of the graphic for a personal touch.
You can bend the strip to a muffin case at any time during the process. To do this, simply bend the graphics in Adobe Illustrator using the warping tool. In Corel Draw, you can do this with the "envelope" tool. (Access this by going to the menu: Effects > Envelope > Simple arc > putty). Hold Ctrl and then drag the lines to the desired arc.
