Information

      For Halloween I made finger rings from black acrylic in two processes.

A template for the ring sizes as well as the positioning aid for engraving in two-step production can also be found in my published projects.

First, I created my rings in the appropriate size, a ring size template can also be found in my published projects.

Step2: Method 1: Cutting and engraving in one operation

In the first variant, I cut and engrave the rings in one go.

The disadvantage here is that you can clearly see the connection between the ring and the head, or choose your motif in such a way that this point is left out.

Step3: Setting parameters, placing frame ride, machining

I place my objects, move the frame again to check and start editing.

Step4: Assembling the rings

Finally, I put the ring and the head together, using superglue,  which I apply sparingly with a wooden stick so that there are no stains on the head with the engraving.

Step5: Method 2 : First, all the parts are cut and assembled

In this process, I first cut all the parts, 

place all the parts on my material, then do a frame ride again to check the correct placement, and start machining. 

I also use superglue for this and apply it sparingly with a wooden stick so that no stains appear on the head.

To engrave the rings I made a positioning aid, which you can also find in my projects.

First I convert my Xtool M1.

Since my positioning aid on the base plate exceeds the maximum height, I mount the honeycomb plate one level further down (alpha layer).

I attach the positioning aid to the honeycomb plate with the magnets, and I measure the distance manually.

Then I place the engraving and carry out a frame ride as always to check and then start the processing.
