Goldfinger Day 1

Thanks! That’s actually two-sided. I did this engrave and then the cut outs. I then carefully lifted it out, flipped it over, and put it back in the void and then engraved “Welcome Home” on the other side.

Oh, even better! Did you just use the camera to align once you flipped it?

I had all the artwork in the same file. On side one, I told it to engrave “Printing in Progress” and the photo, ignore the “Welcome Home” text, and cut the outline. I then flipped it putting it back in exactly the same spot (by leaving the rest of the board in place). This time, I told it to ignore all the parts except the “Welcome Home” text.

Note that the preview in the app made it look like the text was about 1/4" too far to one side but I knew it was in exactly the same spot and it came out fine. Had I tried to line it up by sight I think it would have been off.

Bummer that you couldn’t use the camera to “see it” and align it properly.
