Everybody loves a coaster! Ain’t nothing like kicking off your life together knowing that the coffee table will not have watermarks! Nice job! The graphics and fonts are very nice -especially the second from the right.

So how do you get it dark like ink like that?? Sorry I’m new to the game & want to know before I receive my glowforge next week. TIA

Per forum guidelines, you can’t discuss settings for non-Proofgrade material in this forum, only in Beyond the Manual.

If you search there, you’ll plenty of threads on working with cork.

Okay gotcha! Thank you!

I did try settings found on the Beyond the Manual board (Coastering in with some cork samples). It’s just engraving once you find a setting that works :wink:

It really is just a function of engraving the cork. The laser burns the cork and that is what changes the color. It will all become clear once you get your Glowforge.
