Week 2 Task - Slate Coasters

First, I created a 4in x 4in square as a template (to represent the coaster). Next, I created each design in their own layer and centered each design within the template. I would hide each design after I created it so it would not interfere with the next design I created.

Once all the designs were completed, I taped a piece of cardboard to the honeycomb to secure it in place so it wouldn't move.

Once the cardboard is secured to the honeycomb, go ahead and cut out the template from the cardboard, and carefully removed the cut piece making sure not to move the rest of the template. Choose a design, make sure "output" & "Show" are enabled for that design, all other designs should be disabled. I like to click the preview button to make sure I am only engraving the chosen design.

Next, when you are pleased with the set up go ahead and insert a coaster inside the cardboard. Then, click frame to make sure the design is in the desired position on the coaster. Hit start and begin. After it is complete, remove the coaster and insert another.

If you desire to engrave a different design repeat the steps above but make sure to disable the Output and Show tabs for the design you just created and enable the same tabs for the next design you would like to engrave. Hope you enjoy these designs for personal use as well.
