    Maybe add in a couple alignment cut outs to the top and left side of each piece,the same width as your plywood. Then you could use the cutouts during glue up to key the two pieces together. This way you are certain you have the two pieces aligned.

    My wife is a teacher. She keeps a mini bucket on her desk that she keeps pencils in for those students who forget their pencils. They are supposed to return them at the end of class, but she would have them disappear. I thought it would be funny one year to engrave a bunch of pencils for her with "I stole this pencil from Sra. Haynes." It had the opposite effect, it got to where students that weren't even in her class were getting her pencils. It was a game and the more pencils you had from her desk, the more clout you had. UGHH!

    Sam - great video tutorial, however having issues with your file getting F1 w/extension table using XCS to register correct dimensions when framing and cutting - I’ve calibrated, focused and installed/reinstalled the extension but no luck getting the F1 to cut 1/8” Baltic birch accurately (360 x 110mm) according to your template file. Suggestions???

    Don't really need your template (I have a Snapmaker, so need to do my own), but thanks for the fantastic inspiration of engraving pencils. I legit never even thought about it, but it makes perfect sense.
    It's funny -- like a week before the video you did for your coaster template, I created a jig to engrave some 4-inch circular coasters that I'd gotten. Great minds think alike (well, great mind... and me).

    If you want to make something special for left handed people you could have an option to rotate the design 180 degrees so that when holding it in your left hand the text isn't upside down. That always bugged me as a left handed kid.

    • @DavZell
      @DavZell Год назад +1

      Another option would be to print the opposite way on front and back and say left-hand-friendly/compatible. Of course that requires spinning them over and layering again.
