Laser Etch on a Rock

So I thought it would be cool to add a biblical scripture on a large rock.


Material you need.

A rock with a dark color so the etch will have contrasting letters.

Access to a laser etcher.


I made this at TechShop. www.techshop.ws

I used CorelDraw to type up the scripture.

The rock is about 4" thick so I had to remove the honeycomb base and raise the table. It's really important to get the distance correct.

I used a straight edge and the calipers to get this as close as possible when entering the material thickness in the printing preference.

I turned the rock over and made some test passes to besure I had the distance right.

I did go +50% on the rastor etch setting amd it turned out nice.
