Good stuff. I'm new to engraving (5w laser) and going to try slate coasters, for personal use (at first). I was expecting $20 for a set of 4 but your profit margin is awesome - congrats. My question is do you have to lacquer them? Do you need to do that to preserve the engraving or is it just for getting that shine on them? Either way, thanks for the video.
@TheDadCave 22 күн бұрын
Thanks for the question! I clear coat them for the exact reasons you mentioned. I got some slate coasters as part of a whiskey set that were laser engraved and over time the image on the coasters faded with use. I figure the clear coat would help to prevent fading and enhances the image contrast. Good luck with your laser. I am planning more laser engraving videos, are there any other topics you might want covered in videos?

Looks like each one gets harder to cut due to the cooling. Supposedly STEAMING them works better than boiling them directly in the water and steaming only requres 3-5 minutes.

I think it's actually better if they're not perfect. I made a set a while ago and I planed and sanded them to within a few hundreds of a mm and the game was too easy. When they all fit perfectly and are sanded smooth, the tower is just too stable and with a bit of patience we could get the tower all the way to a fish bone structure with just the middle pieces of each level remaining. The solution was to take about half the blocks and take just a little off the top with coarse sandpaper.

The Modelo was probably not the best to start with haha. Looks good though. How did you mount it to the wall? I was thinking of using a router and keyhole bit on the backside. There are also sawtooth hangers, or single/double keyhole fittings? I feel like opening a bottle, especially if tipsy, needs a solid mounting point so hangers and keyhole fittings probably not the best. Sorry for the rambling, but id love to hear how you did it as well as if it has held up well over the years. Definitely got yourself a sub. Thanks man!

Unfortunately, the Modelo was the only beer I had on hand. I made two counterbored holes on the bottle opener. One on top and one on the bottom. Then just simple hardware screws into a stud. I completely agree that it should be secured to the wall with no movement. That's why I didn't opted for other hangars like you mentioned. Be sure to check out the short I made in response to your comment if you want to see how it's holding up.

Or use a tupperware dish and the microwave and cover with the lid when it's boiled then let sit for a few minutes. Trial and error will tell you more.
