Laser Cut Jewelry | Layered | Glowforge

In this project video I will be layering some 1/8" mirror gold acrylic on top of some 1/8" walnut to make some custom jewelry. I will also show how to design the two layers using Coreldraw 2020.

[@ScottRedstone]

Love seeing how you zip through coreldraw. I’m using Inkscape which has similar features but as a novice I spend way too much time trying to figure out how to do something than actual designing. Like the look of mirrored acrylic.

[@TroytheMaker]

It just seems like I be zipping through. It all editing tricks. Haha. I'm glad you like it.

[@gregoryflatt]

Hi love you videos do it cuts jewelry and engrave jewelry

[@TroytheMaker]

Depends on the material. It will not cut metals like gold, silver, or stainless steel.

[@chinad0g137]

I need some jewelry made bro

[@TroytheMaker]

Shoot me a email to [e-mail]

[@GoGetIt411]

Thanks for stating the size of the material used here 1/8 for example .. I’m binge watching your videos and I just asked in another video about acrylic sizes and etc. you’re always 6 Step’s ahead thanks!!

[@TroytheMaker]

You are so welcome!

[@HelloDarknessCreations]

Awesome videos brother!! I love your videos, very informative. I’m waiting for my Plus to arrive next Tuesday so I’m trying to learn as much as possible and your videos help a lot!! Would you entertain the idea of doing lessons via FaceTime or anything for a price? I feel I would really benefit from that. Thanks and be safe!

[@TroytheMaker]

I'm working on something like that now. I will let you when I get it complete, but until then you can email me at [e-mail]

[@calciferthebabygecko2186]

Can you use this machine with silver? I’m trying to get some custom silver pendants done 🤔

[@TroytheMaker]

You can engrave on silver, but not cut sliver.

[@alexandreelisiario]

👍💯👍💯👍💯👍💯👍💯👍💯👍

[@sysphotography]

So in illustrator isn’t that offset paths?

[@TroytheMaker]

I don’t know to be honest. I don’t know to much about illustrator.

[@twilliams7487]

Can you make a video on how to use software

[@TroytheMaker]

I know just enough. Search Doug Green he makes a lot of video tutorials using Corel draw.

[@neeceywithak5334]

Hi what software are you using to edit the design? It looks different from the gf app. Also I purchase a Fr 3 weeks ago using your code 😃

[@TroytheMaker]

I use coreldraw.

[@buddhathebarber4857]

Can glowforge cut 1/4 inch piece of acrylic ?

[@TroytheMaker]

Yes. It can cut up to 1/2” thick.

[@bryanhenson3253]

Bro great video again. I've watched all your videos and learn so much each time. What version did f Coreldraw are you using. I'm using inkscape but really don't like it. Looking at getting Coreldraw. Again great video

[@TroytheMaker]

I use Coreldraw 2020 subscription base. It's like $200 a year.

[@bryanhenson3253]

@@TroytheMaker Great that's what I was looking at. Thanks for the reply. Have a great day!

[@cristyjoanrodriguez3500]

can you to led project w it

[@TroytheMaker]

I don't understand your question.

[@malikaboudreaux-realtor3829]

I’m going to reach out for you mentor program

[@SoledadJameson]

Hi Troy! thank you for your awesome videos. One question for you. I bought the mirrored acrylic from the Inventables, it comes with a clear mask, is that ok to put in the Glowforge or it has to be covered with a matte mask? Also, do you put the mirrored part facing up or down? Thank you!

[@TroytheMaker]

Thanks a Million! I peel the clear plastic off and use blue painters tape or this masking paper: amzn.to/3fcUNzA

[@SoledadJameson]

@@TroytheMaker you are the best! thank you so much. Keep creating cool stuff. I love it all. I'm new on the Glowforge world and you are super helpful. Take care!

[@mm0901]

Love your videos! I know you probably get this question a million times a day but I looked in the description and couldn’t find the answer. Which Glowforge are you using? The Pro? If so have you cut any very large materials with it? I would love to get a Glowforge eventually but probably wouldn’t be able to afford much more than the basic.

[@TroytheMaker]

Thanks a Million! I have a Glowforge Basic. With the Pro you can work with larger pieces, but not with the basic or plus. Hope this helps.

[@mm0901]

@@TroytheMaker hi Troy! Thanks for your quick reply! Really appreciate it. Glad to know you’re using the basic since that will be the one I will be getting once I’m able. Thanks for all the hard work you do with your videos.... you are really good at explaining things and showing things in a way everyone can understand, so THANK YOU!😊

[@jenniferbajana6992]

Love this! What Glowforge do you have and how long did it take to print these?

[@TroytheMaker]

Thanks a Million! I have a basic. It took less than five minutes to cut out.

[@trustbonheur8154]

Hello, I am thinking to buy glowforge but I want to know if you can make sandal?

[@TroytheMaker]

I pretty sure you could if it is designed right. That is an incredible project idea. Mine if I borrow it? Haha

[@SPIREGlobalAlliance]

Hey bro can u send me a d.m to help me out with this jewelry design

[@TroytheMaker]

Send me an email [e-mail]

[@FlareNee]

Nice job Troy. Love the vids. Check out what I do on my channel!!

[@TroytheMaker]

Thanks a Million! I will check it out.
