What file formats do you accept?
We prefer vector based files, preferably in PDF format. Please make sure all dimensions of the file are indicated in your request.
How do I set-up my files for the laser?
Please make sure that anything that is meant to be engraved is black, and vectors that are meant to be traced or cut are distinctly different colours (ie. red for cutting, yellow for tracing).
Can you provide materials?
We do have a variety of materials for sale including baltic birch plywood, MDF, acrylic, metals, etc.
How do I pay for my order?
We will send you an online invoice prior to starting your job, and require payment in full in advance.
