The hustle started for me a week ago and I wasn't even considering back to school! We went back to school last week. Next year I'll be more prepared between Christmas in July and Fall launch in September and then again for May teacher appreciation week!
! I will be selling pencils this year. A tip in LB, if you want to make a grid of the slots, the left hand toolbar there is 9 square towards the bottom. It allows you to repeat the grid across and down. Comes in real handy!
Hola Emily gusto en saludarte desde Canada 🇨🇦 cuando compre ni sabia que eras embajadora en Canada 😩 quiero hacer el curso contigo y estoy tratando de descargar el jig gratis de lapices pero no lo Veo ! Saludos y gracias
Watched this great video. Going to make a template and use your technique for engraving wooden spoons. What did you use for your engraving settings and what would you suggest for spoons?
I'm havng a hard time lining up my pencil perfect, what size font are you using? I have .125 it seems to be ok, but not sure why not good, how did you align them they are like little octagons.
thanks so much. new to lasers, in fact it will be another 9 weeks before mine arrives. in the meantime Im learning as much as I can. your videos are brilliant as well as inspirational - thank you so much
@@ThatMomWithALaser thankyou looking into it :) I need something like silk print for personalised name . Do you know a machine for silk print. Any link .
If you don't want to take time to make a jig then look for some of those plastic blister packs that allot of artist coloring pencils come in. That little plastic tray works great as a jig in a pinch.
You know you can use the array (square with 6 boxes in it) option to make duplicates of anything much faster and with what ever spacing you want. Great video by the way!
Actually, this is an older video and it's much easier to use the "array" tool in LightBurn. You should be able to find something on it on the LightBurn channel ;)
I've just discovered your channel and really appreciate your enthusiasm and that you cover all facets of operating a laser. When it comes to making jigs like this I often find the array and grid features of Lightburn to be a real time saver. Lightburn Arrays & Grids Tutorial - th-cam.com/video/vuAUTiFxLBo/w-d-xo.html
I just love all your videos. I'm learning so much from you. You mentioned that you uses a white board for your pencil jig. What exactly is white board and where do I find it?
Any chance you have settings for Mira 9 90w for pencils? Trying to do a teacher gift and haven't done pencils yet.

Im SO happy to hear that things have picked up for you! Yea baby!!!

haha yes! A bunch of my viewers made sure I knew about the array feature after this video was released. LOL Thanks for sharing :)
Amazing video! THANKS! - And to everyone telling her how to use lightburn - SHE GOT THE FEEDBACK - SHE ROCKS!

Hi! What size was your board and what material? Thanks!
I'm havng a hard time lining up my pencil perfect, what size font are you using? I have .125 it seems to be ok, but not sure why not good, how did you align them they are like little octagons.
Hey Emily! Great video. I was just wondering what settings you are using for your Mira 7 to engrave the pencils? TIA!
Great video as always. Cutious yo know how you package your pwncils and how you price them
How d🎉o you fill engrave fast as you did on the video? Can you make a video of the settings or do you recommend another?
Do your pencils come pre sharpened?
thanks so much. new to lasers, in fact it will be another 9 weeks before mine arrives. in the meantime Im learning as much as I can. your videos are brilliant as well as inspirational - thank you so much
Thank you for the kind words and yay for your laser! 🙌🏼
Great job Emily, as always your videos are helpful even to skilled users!
Hola, que parametros usas en el lightburn (potencia, velocidad, pases, etc), me podrias comentar por favor, me encanto tu video
Do you have to do a new jig every time or can you keep reusing the one you cut. My glowforge it always looks out of focus 🤦🏽♀️
I just use the same jig over and over again :)
This was an awesome video! Love the project and your energy ❤️❤️🥰🥰
Thank you!!
What model laser do you have? I think im upgrading once my glowforge dies!
I have an Aeon MIRA7. Great machine and I couldn’t be happier. I have a video on it here th-cam.com/video/KsdW7mp7yMk/w-d-xo.html
Is there any other option without engrave? But print which does not feel anything to touch . Any machine for that ?
A UV printer will print colors directly onto materials but they are quiet an investment.

@@mehlizabeautylondonmakeupb9856 my pleasure! Unfortunately that’s out of my area. I have no idea haha

Also try the create array tool instead of duplicate and move.

I do now, LOL. My laser peeps told me about it after I released this video last year
what kind of laser is good to start a business like yours
Hi how do you highlight the names to duplicate without highlighting the pencil jig?

Alex Hay haha yes! I didn’t know about them until I released this and all my laser homies told me about it 🤣 I’m glad you’re enjoying my channel!
Where do I get the machine
Which machine is this ? Where can I get it ?
Hi Mehliza. I have an Aeon Mira 7. You can request more information through my affiliate link here aeonlaser.us/contact?ref=momlaser
Thank you so much!!!
How much do you usually sell personalized pencils for?
How you peice your items will depend on your material costs and the time it takes you with your machine. I sold mine for $10 for a pack of 12.
@@ThatMomWithALaser thank you for responding.
@@beakidhero anytime!
Just watching this? What font are you using?
Better Caramel
@@ThatMomWithALaser Thanks. I wanna try it on my little k40. I'll make a smaller jig though
@@TheDwilliams1000 awesome!
