- Once you get your design how you like it its time to put your material into the laser.
- You can place you design anywhere on the board.
- I chose to place mine in the lower right hand corner so this can be used as a cutting board.
- Once you have you object where you like it, use the framing feature in the upper right corner to make sure its aligned you were want it placed on your material.
- Once you're satisfied you can send it to your laser!
