Thank you for giving me my school assignment for free.
This was the most helpful and easy to follow Glowforge video I’ve ever seen. I’m incredibly grateful for you. My freaking hero right now 🏆❤️
Thank you so much! This was the first thing I was able to make on my glowforge because of this video. I like that you go a bit faster, because I like to watch first and then rewind and pause when needed. I hate videos that are too slow because I lose interest! Thanks again!
Thank you, that helped me so much.
Thank you love it!!
Very helpful for me
I got my key chains cut in wood, this tutorial helped alot. You just have to slow/stop it at parts.
Hi! good video and good explanation! What software do you use to laser engrave? thanks
For this, I was using a Glowforge. The software is Inkscape and then it loads into the Glowforge User Interface. I'm now learning Lightburn for the giant laser.
when back object to normal mode (3:50) am see only one, second is behined of name? maybe help?
Hi. I'm new to laser engraving, I bought a sculpfun s9 and downloaded inkscape and it seems to work fine, but my laptop can't find the laser engraver, can you help me out with that please? Thank you
Welcome to laser engraving! I’m sorry I’m not familiar with that laser. You can join some groups on Facebook and pose the question there. I’d recommend “That Mom With a Laser Community”. Also contact who sold it to you. :)
@@Pauseibilities ok thanks
Everything was really helpful... BUT.. how do I get that alignment menu to come up?
Object - Align & Distribute
It’s at the very bottom
or Shift+CTRL+M
This will open the menu so it’s available on the right.
is this the free version?
for some reason, my outside didn't go like yours
Yes. Inkscape is free. I’m not sure why it didn’t go like mine.
When i click path and then outset, it does nothing. Why is that??
Yes same here I’m so confused
@@TaylorTamaTime If you are using a downloaded image, you may have to trace as a Bitmap Path. Thats what worked for me
I’m not sure. I’m also not sure why I didn’t see this comment. It’s obviously a bit old. If you still need help, email the file to me at shishona@pauseibilities.life and I’ll see if I can figure something out.
How do I change the outline in the name so it doesn’t vectorize?
I'm sorry. I don't know. Why would you want it to not vector? If you just want to preserve the name of the font, then make a copy and put it off to the side before you do the next steps.
I was trying 2 follow how u were doing this but u were going so fast...🤷♂️u not telling what u are clicking on in the software.
