Wow! That masking paper really makes a big difference! Love this!
Hey Demps!!! It sure did! Thank you for watching😘
What kind of masking did you use and where do you buy it
I love masking before engraving, everything looks so crisp and clean. I use a plastic razor blade to scrape off the masking, takes the tedious out of the removal process.
I loved how the masking made it look!!! I will look into the plastic razor blade and appreciate the suggestion!
Love how it came out! Looks great
Thank you!!!
AAAWWWWW SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS. THAT CUTTING BOARD IS BEAUTIFUL.
Thank you Stacey! That peach pie recipe was one of my favorite things she made:)
They both look really nice❣️and what a beautiful way to memorialize your mom's recipe, I really love that❣️
Thank you very much Angela!
Wow that is a big difference between masking ¬ masking, masking is the way. Great video💪🏾😊💜
I was surprised at how much "goo" ended up on top where there was no masking:) Really different than what I have experienced with other woods. Thanks so much for watching SACC!
THAT IS REALLY NICE...GREAT JOB👏👏👏👏👏. I KNOW YOUR HUBBY LOVES IT.
Thank you Stacey!
It came out great on both tests, but I live how the masked one turned out. I guess it depends on the look you're going for. Thank you for sharing the good and the great!
*like
Thank you!
I think duct tape works best for weeding out the masking. Thanks for sharing your settings!
Oh my goodness, I am going to try that!!! Thanks so much for the suggestion.
Nice! I like the masking better!! Great job❤️❤️❤️
Thanks AlmondBrown!!! And thank you so much for watching:)
what a comparison between the masking tape and non masking tape area.. thanks for sharing :)
Thanks Markia! I appreciate you checking out the video.
I'm here for the crafts!
Thank you CraftyLeo!!! Crafting helps keep me sane:)
@@MakingwithMarilyn I totally understand that lol Me too along with cooking
It looks great to me
Thanks Tracy!!!
Love it Marilyn
Thank you Sonya!!!
Good video thanks looks good ❤
That’s really nice
Thanks so much! I appreciate it:)
Did you change the settings when you did it the second time around because I know you said the first time you weren’t happy with it?
I still used full power, but used 750 for the speed. The biggest thing is that I masked the whole thing the second time. Huge difference. Thank you for watching.
Hey Marilyn so nice I need one with my brand on it very nice 👍
I left a comment for you elsewhere that I got your lovely gifts today!!! I love them! So I am looking for a couple of things to make for you:) Do you have a brand logo that I could put on things? If so, you could email it to me.
@@MakingwithMarilyn you don't have to do that I just appreciate all you do thank you
@@mcfromkc7110 I would love to make one for you:)
Very Nice!
Thank you!!!
Can you use the masking with the xtool m1 for wood ?
I honestly don't know if you can use masking paper with a diode laser or not. Something I might research.
I'm having difficulty getting the masking tape to stick to bamboo cutting boards--is there any tricks to getting it to stick better prior to engraving? Thanks so much-your video was very helpful!
The masking tape doesn't stick really well to the bamboo, but I do get it to stick. Maybe you could try to burnish it down if you haven't tried that?
Catching the replay
Thank you Tracy!
For engraving on wood NOT used for food prep, I use borax before, and acrylic spray after. How does one preserve the engraving's dark color on a cutting board intended for food?
Thanks for the idea of using borax before engraving on non-food boards used for decor. I use a mineral oil that is considered food grade for my wood cutting boards. But the one I use for truly cutting on is not engraved. Since the brown is from being burned, I think it would stay dark though. Thanks for watching!
Do u fee the forge was worth 6500 dollars….?
Looks cool but for 6k u could easily find a laser engraver with a larger working table for 1200-1500 dollars…?
Just curious what’s so special or what people like on the glow forge to spend 6k ….?
Any opinions if u have one are welcome thanks :-)
Hello Joshy. Definitely a good and fair question. I bought the Glowforge Basic when it was $2995 after seeing a demo of it at a leather store. The Basic model is now $3995. My favorite things about the Glowforge are the camera in it so that you now exactly where your materials are, and the ease in working the cutting software. I do not pay the monthly fee for the design software since I have a free design software that I know how to use. I also have an inexpensive table top (open frame) diode laser (versus being a CO2 laser like the Glowforge). So far, I prefer the Glowforge for most things, but since the Glowforge cannot engrave on objects taller than about 2 inches, I love the diode laser for engraving on powder coated tumblers. I've had my Glowforge for quite awhile so haven't researched what else I would buy if I were starting over. If you have any specific questions about the Glowforge, let me know and I will try to answer them.
Thanks for the video; I have two questions:
1) I didn't understand if you burned or painted the bamboo!
2) Being one or the other, after doing it, do you protect the bamboo with some varnish? Thanks
The engraving was burned on with a Glowforge laser. I did not varnish it afterwards. Thanks so much for watching!
Thanks, but I don't understand one thing: at the same time that the laser cuts the mask, it makes the engraving on the bamboo?
@@Dancopymus yes that is correct.
❤️❤️❤️
Thanks Uni!

Thank you so much!
