Paper Selection
OK so it isn’t paper, but this method works best on a new mat. The new mat and the cover sheet are lined up properly and obviously this is when your mat has the most sticky. But it works on older mats too.
Engraving
I tried this method several times to see how many times works best for engraving and three seems to be the magic number. The download file has the three copies all ready for you. In the SVG file you will need to center the three copies and attach them to each other.
When you get to the “cutting” mat view you want to make sure the design is centered on the front of the mat. It should be already but mine needed tweaked just a little.
What a great idea! I haven’t tried my engraving tool yet so this would make a perfect first project.
I just got my engraving tool, as well, and can’t wait to try it out — although on my older mats.
Thank you so much!
Is this the thin film report holders or is it heavier?
I have engraved report covers before, and it works fine but I don’t know the brand you are using so try it first. The tutorial is about the cover sheet for mats though. They are a bit thicker.
