Owner's Manual for EPILOG Legend Model 6000
COMBINING LASER ENGRAVING WITH SANDBLASTING
Combining the best of both processes, you can use your laser to engrave the artwork then use sandblasting to
provide a deep etch into glass. Using the laser to create the artwork mask is an ideal process for one-of-a-kind
custom pieces as well as large production runs. This eliminates the photo process usually associated with
sandblast mask.
Apply an adhesive backed mask material to the glass that you are going to engrave.
Laser completely through the mask and into the glass.
Remove the glass from the engraver and sandblast to the desired depth.
You now have a sandblasted glass presentation with the detail of laser engraving!

NOTARY SEALS - DELRIN

ENGRAVING
Notary seals can be easily manufactured using 1/16-inch thick delrin plastic. A seal consists of two pieces - a
male die and a female die, both shown below. The male die consists of white lettering on a black background
and the female die is an inverted and mirrored image of the male. Inverting and mirroring are easily
accomplished in most graphics software packages. Simply duplicate the male die, then invert the black and
white colors and then mirror the image.
The male image should be produced without the use of outlines around the text or graphics. Add a .007 to
.010 inch outline to the text and graphics of the female die. This outline creates a large enough void between
the male and female dies to emboss paper without tearing.
Apply a .001 outline around the seal to define the outside edge of the seal.
Engraving/Vector mode to first engrave the seal and then cut out the seal.
