My pleasure! I love your content and you helped me gain confidence starting my channel. Thanks for making great videos and building an awesome community!
I watched Sallie’s video as well. I have learned so much from both videos! Thank you! I love your sign too! I like that it is vintage looking, it makes it a little different than what you see. I am new to the laser world. I got my Thunder 35/100 in February and I love it! I am still learning about settings and just starting to be brave at trying to align precut items. I noticed you didn’t have your honeycomb tray in. What is the advantage to not using it? I am going to watch the acrylic video you mentioned next. I would love to see more on acrylic as I haven’t tried it yet. I have joined your FB group and I am so thankful for videos like this! Thank you! 😊
Welcome to the Laser World - it’s fun here! I tend to keep my crumb tray out to minimize risk of flashback on items . If you have something that you need to keep completely flat, you’ll need it in so you can use hold down pins or magnets, but I cut a lot of acrylic and the extra air movement plus no heat bouncing off the back of the honeycomb works well for me!
I'm just getting started with a Glowforge Pro. I have been thinking that I want to cut the graphics and lettering for my signs from acrylic instead of painting. I really appreciate your videos!
Thank you for the tutorial and tips! Turned out super cute! How do you plan to hang this if you were to put it on a door or wall? Some customers do not want holes for ribbon, would love to know your thoughts. Thanks!
I’d add either a sawtooth hanger for the wall or some d-rings and some wire so it could be hidden on the back - tough part would be the screws with that because this one isn’t very thick! Because it is thin/light - I’ve seen people super glue a sawtooth backer that they made on their laser! I’ve also used command strips on something this light with success. Thanks for watching and commenting!

I’m not the best painter so acrylic is a BIG savior for me!

Thanks Katie! Question - what are the two fonts you used in this sign? Thanks!

@@ThingsKatieMakes Thanks a bunch!
How long was the engraving time?
About 45 minutes - for the darkness I wanted, probably would have been closer to an hour
