Laser engraved brick

Use our instructions and template below to make a clever house-warming gift out of a brick paver.

Preparation

Materials required
  • Brick paver or a clay brick. (You can purchase from an arts and crafts store, or from a local builder.)
Machine used
  • Speedy 360, 100 Watt
  • 1.5" lens
  • Vacuum table

You can create this sample with any laser machine from the Speedy laser engraver series.

Tip

We used the 1.5" lens because we wanted to engrave a plan with many details. For design with less details, use the 2" lens.
