Well, I finally picked the little LaserNut up from UPS and got it all setup on the kitchen counter. I wanted to get going to I thought I’d just use the kitchen fume hood as my venting solution (temporarily?!).
As I was going through the tutorial files, I had her draw something up. She had the words all in one line so I did two traces to break them up and stack them on top of each other. Since I couldn’t rotate the tracings, I rotated the plaque vectors to get them a little bit better aligned. Thought this turned out quite nicely, though I think in the future I’d scan it in and process it in Illustrator so I can save out the tracings and use them again later.
I’ve never had to “do” anything. Every trace I’ve made has just ended up there. It may make some difference if you click Trace from the Home screen rather than Add Artwork from within the bed image.
Haha! Yeah I bet! It came with the house when we bought it. Previous owner worked at SubZero/Wolf. I’ve really come to like them and fear when we have to move we’ll have to downgrade…but I don’t use them as much as I should
Hey Christopher. Good to see you did the kitchen fume hood Solution exactly as i planned to do! Are you satisfied with the venting or did you run into any issues?
Im getting my glowforge tomorrow and read today in the manual, that you shouldnt use a vent to extend the length of the hose… now im a little bit concerned…
Gonna try that tonight.
and happy cakeday!
