How-to Tutorial

1

Step1: Place Coasters on Engraving Plate and Size the Viewing Box to just go over the edge of the coaster

DO NOT Pre-Treat or Sand Coasters beforehand. (Coating Coasters Before Engraving Releases Fumes that are Seriously Harmful to your Health) Place Coasters on Engraving Plate and Size the Viewing Box area just enough to go over the edge of the coaster. Make sure each image is inverted and select dithering. Each coaster will take roughly an hour due to the amount of detail and shading. All images files are clearly marked (Mummy, Horseman, Werewolf and Vampire, Witch, and Witch-Pre Inverted and Ready to Etch) LP Sofware did not do as well with dithering levels on the not inverted version of the witch *Please use pre inverted image file for my results as this one already has contrast adjusted as well

Step2: Rinse Coaster and Let Dry then Spray to Seal the Design

After each coaster finishes rinse them under water to remove any dust from etching. Once dry spray on a light layer of Mod Podge Matte sealer then let dry for about 20-30 minutes.
