Should have been spending my Sunday working overtime but instead spent it using my the presents I bought myself for my birthday the other day! Picked up a thermal printer and rotary tool and attempted my first glass engraving! Feel like for a first attempt, I didn't do too bad 🙈😅 I need more practice of course but maybe this is how I tap back into my creativity and a new project for my art journey!

[fozmeadows]

the older I get, the more the technological changes I've lived through as a millennial feel bizarre to me. we had computers in my primary school classroom; I first learned to type on a typewriter. I had a cellphone as a teenager, but still needed a physical train timetable. my parents listened to LP records when I was growing up; meanwhile, my childhood cassette tape collection became a CD collection, until I started downloading mp3s on kazaa over our 56k modem internet connection to play in winamp on my desktop computer, and now my laptop doesn't even have a disc tray. I used to save my word documents on floppy discs. I grew up using the rotary phone at my grandparents' house and our wall-connected landline; my mother's first cellphone was so big, we called it The Brick. I once took my desktop computer - monitor, tower and all - on the train to attend a LAN party at a friend's house where we had to connect to the internet with physical cables to play together, and where one friend's massive CRT monitor wouldn't fit on any available table. as kids, we used to make concertina caterpillars in class with the punctured and perforated paper strips that were left over whenever anything was printed on the room's dot matrix printer, which was outdated by the time I was in high school. VHS tapes became DVDs, and you could still rent both at the local video store when I was first married, but those shops all died out within the next six years. my facebook account predates the iphone camera - I used to carry around a separate digital camera and manually upload photos to the computer in order to post them; there are rolls of undeveloped film from my childhood still in envelopes from the chemist's in my childhood photo albums. I have a photo album from my wedding, but no physical albums of my child; by then, we were all posting online, and now that's a decade's worth of pictures I'd have to sort through manually in order to create one. there are video games I tell my son about but can't ever show him because the consoles they used to run on are all obsolete and the games were never remastered for the new ones that don't have the requisite backwards compatibility. I used to have a walkman for car trips as a kid; then I had a discman and a plastic hardshell case of CDs to carry around as a teenager; later, a friend gave my husband and I engraved matching ipods as a wedding present, and we used them both until they stopped working; now they're obsolete. today I texted my mother, who was born in 1950, a tiktok upload of an instructional video for girls from 1956 on how to look after their hair and nails and fold their clothes. my father was born four years after the invention of colour televison; he worked in radio and print journalism, and in the years before his health declined, even though he logically understood that newspapers existed online, he would clip out articles from the physical paper, put them in an envelope and mail them to me overseas if he wanted me to read them. and now I hold the world in a glass-faced rectangle, and I have access to everything and ownership of nothing, and everything I write online can potentially be wiped out at the drop of a hat by the ego of an idiot manchild billionaire. as a child, I wore a watch, but like most of my generation, I stopped when cellphones started telling us the time and they became redundant. now, my son wears a smartwatch so we can call him home from playing in the neighbourhood park, and there's a tanline on his wrist ike the one I haven't had since the age of fifteen. and I wonder: what will 2030 look like?

A Brief Overview of Traditional and Modern Engraving Techniques

Signage engraving is an essential component of the marketing industry. Only so many marketing strategies are unique to your brand or business. An excellent sign helps you differentiate yourself from other businesses, shows your clients and patrons what you have to offer and helps get your story across in ways other platforms just can't! Before looking for an “engraving company near me” go through the history of signage.

Defining Signage

Simply said, signage is creating and applying signs to promote a brand or statement. The realm of sign design uses a wide variety of designs and materials. Nonetheless, the primary function of signage is to express a statement or provide information to aid the viewer in making sense of the sign.

The Development of Signage

In a technical sense, signs have existed for practically as long as there have been people. Since signs are visual graphics used to represent information, we have utilized them since at least 18,000 BC. The earliest indications that early humans made could be classified as the Paleolithic cave paintings of creatures, humans, and scenery.

The history of signs can be traced back to antiquity. There would be recognizable signs for all kinds of enterprises and public works if you traveled back then to Rome during the republican era or any of the major Ancient Greek cities.

Early Romans produced signs out of terracotta or wood.

They are typically used to publicize events and news and on storefronts. Several old signs have persisted in some form or another into the present era. The white and red bar of the hair salon and the three balls designating pawn shops continue to be utilized worldwide.

When we quickly advance to the medieval era, we can observe signs becoming an increasing element of daily life. Taverns in England were required to post signs indicating their alcohol sales by law as far back as the 14th century. Competing companies made signs and banners to set themselves apart from their rivals as towns and cities expanded across Europe.

Occasionally, a business will use a well-known local animal, person, or location as the subject of its banner. They would cleverly play off their name in advertising signs, such as a stone house for Steinhouse.

As drawing attention was the main objective, the signs were frequently intricate works of art. The sign itself was a complex work of art, down to the supports that held it up. In the early days of marketing, a sign represented a substantial investment and an essential and recognizable component of your livelihood.

Tavern signs, however, remained common, and many of the greatest engravers of the eighteenth and seventeenth centuries were noted for their work painting signs.

Various Signs

Going over all the different types and applications of signs would take us countless hours and pages. However, ordinary sign engravers should be familiar with the following 5 types of signs before beginning.

Inside or outdoors, navigation signs are typically used to find your way through stores, tourist sites, or companies.

Signage used to identify facilities and services include identification signs. Consider signs in parking areas or restrooms that direct you to important locations.

You can learn about services and enterprises through these signs. They could include directories, maps, and the like. These can be found at museums, stores, and tourist sites.

Promotional signage that uses persuasion to urge readers to think about a promotion, product, company, or brand

Picture those yellow signs that say "slippery floor." You should always be cautious around harmful regions and items by heeding the guidelines and ideograms on these large, garish danger signs.

You now have everything you require for a spectacular sign, whether you want to try making your design using our design pattern or ask our team of award-winning designers to put a design up for you. Our  Engraving company wants to hear your inquiries, worries, or remarks.engraving company

Here are some jojo villains headcannons for receiving gifts on their birthdays!

You’ve somehow found out the birthdays of every villain in the house (except the Pillar Men because their age is…hard to tell) and make a big deal out of celebrating them. Whether they love or hate it depends on the villain.

How You Find Their Birthdays:

Kira’s Journal: You snuck into Kira’s room and borrowed his neatly organized personal planner, which he kept for his old life. Naturally, this included his birthday.

“Kira, I know your birthday’s coming up! Do you like cake or pie better?”

“…How do you know that?”

Pucci’s Notes: You peeked in one of Pucci’s journals during one of his long monologues and found a note about his birthday in the margins. He now keeps all his writings locked up.

Dio’s Ranting: Dio casually mentioned his birthday during one of his speeches. Later you ask for the exact date. You immediately jotted it down.

Doppio/Diavolo’s Documents: You’d have to have hacked into Diavolo’s personal records because he would never divulge that information. Diavolo is still trying to figure out how you did it.

Valentine’s Records: You grilled Valentine over dinner about his “human side,” pretending to be fascinated by his patriotism. He gave that sob story about his dad and the handkerchief.

Reactions:

Dio Gift: A custom mirror engraved with “To the world’s most perfect being.” You even add a few rhinestones because you know how much Dio loves to sparkle lol.

Reaction: Dio basks in the attention. Deep down, he loves the gift, though he’ll never admit it.

“Hmm. You’re an odd creature, but this is… acceptable.”

Kira Yoshikage Gift: A pristine pair of leather gloves and a bouquet of roses to match his aesthetic. You also bake him a hand-shaped cake. He’s horrified.

Reaction: Kira begrudgingly accepts the gloves (because they are high quality) but refuses to acknowledge the cake. He spends the entire day avoiding you.• “I don’t know how you know my birthday, but I’d appreciate it if you didn’t.”

Diavolo Gift: A limited-edition Italian silk scarf in his favorite shade of crimson.

Reaction: Diavolo is suspicious, thinking you’re trying to gain leverage over him. He eventually accepts the gift when Doppio convinces him it’s harmless.

“Tread carefully. I don’t trust your motives.”

Doppio Gift: A pink rotary phone because it matches his vibe.

Reaction: Doppio adores it and spends hours pretending to make calls with it. Diavolo later destroys the phone out of sheer annoyance.

“You’re the best!”

Pucci Gift: A first-edition copy of a rare theological text you found.

Reaction: Pucci is conflicted. On one hand, he appreciates the gift. On the other, he’s uncomfortable with how much effort you put into finding out his birthday.

“Your persistence is… unsettling.” He keeps the book locked in his room.

Funny Valentine Gift: A custom pocket watch with an engraving of the American flag on the front and his initials inside.

Reaction: Valentine is both touched and suspicious. He accepts the gift with a stiff nod and politely thanks you. He later examines it for tracking devices (just in case).

“Your thoughtfulness is appreciated. However, I will not tolerate any schemes.”

Pillar Men: They are spared from your birthday obsession because you couldn’t possibly figure out their birthdays. This doesn’t stop you from giving them gifts anyway.

Kars: Gets a gemstone-encrusted hairbrush because his hair is so gorgeous. He throws it at you.

Esidisi: Receives a set of scented candles because you thought they’d calm him down. He cries tears of rage.

Wamuu: Gets a polished silver armband. He accepts it graciously and bows, earning him the title of your favorite.

The Aftermath: Most of the villains are deeply unnerved by your stalkerlike knowledge of their birthdays, but your gifts are always so perfectly tailored that they can’t bring themselves to refuse.

You celebrate with so much enthusiasm that even the grumpiest villains (like Kira and Diavolo) eventually start tolerating you, though none of them will ever admit they secretly look forward to their birthdays now.

Out of curiosity, are you using a dremel to etch the glass?

No! No dremels!!!

... ok so anyways. The tool I use for etching glass, carving eggs, stone, whatever else I get my hands on, is a rotary drill. It is not, however, a dremel.

Basically dremels (dremels are a brand of drills/tools btw for anyone who didn't know) are not small enough, with small enough bits, or fast enough rotation, to be delicate enough for all the stuff I do. Glass especially- the rotations and vibrations can easily be too much if I go too deep. Overall to etch glass and eggs like I do I need... a dental drill!!

Uhh so yeah, I can and absolutely will not cut your teeth out. The rotary drill I use looks like this:

It can go to 50,000 rotations per minute (really fast!) and has a pencil handpiece. This isn't exactly a drill you will see in a dental practice, but it is a dental drill. Me and my dentist have regular arguments about who's drill is better (mine goes faster but his has more power behind it lmao)

Small clip of it in action (warning for smoll screechy noise)-

The way I had to hold my hand to get this shot was terrible it sucked

I had to save up for a bit when I was younger to get this drill, and it's about as cheap as it'll get. The thing is for glass etching/engraving, egg carving, stone carving, etc, is that there isn't enough demand with the small amount of artists to justify anyone making drills specifically for it. So artists like me who want to make stuff in that area literally have to buy dental office drills, which, while hilarious, is really expensive.

Sorry if I've rambled too long- I'm proud of my drill <33 if anyone has questions about my uhh throwing whatever together art process, feel free to ask, I know yall are curious bc it's not exactly common.

I 3D printed Isobel Thorm’s spear from Baldur’s Gate 3!

The spear head was printed on a Bambu Lab A1 with eSun PLA, STL by Ultima Props on Cults 3D.

The staff part is a pine dowel from Home Depot (it's a little warped unfortunately), and I "engraved" the designs using my rotary tool. The 3D printed pieces were connected with a 1/4" threaded rod which runs about a foot down into the wooden dowel, so it's fairly sturdy. Overall height is about 72"!

As a leader in CNC technologies, we offer a range of advanced CNC machines, and today we dive deep into how a rotary CNC router machine can revolutionize your operations.

What is a Rotary CNC Router Machine? A Rotary CNC Router Machine is a computer-controlled cutting machine that uses rotary tools to carve, cut, or engrave materials in three dimensions. The term “rotary” refers to its ability to rotate the material around an axis while it works, providing access to all sides of the material. This capability enables intricate detailing, sculpting, and shaping of cylindrical or irregularly shaped materials.

Unlike traditional CNC routers that work on flat surfaces, rotary CNC routers can handle 3D shapes, making them ideal for creating complex, multi-faceted designs.

How Does a Rotary CNC Router Machine Work? The Rotary CNC Router works by rotating the material, typically using a rotary axis attachment, while the cutting tool precisely follows the programmed paths. Here’s a breakdown of the process:

Material Preparation: A workpiece, such as wood, metal, or plastic, is mounted on the rotary axis, which allows it to rotate. Programming: A computer-aided design (CAD) program creates a digital blueprint of the desired outcome. This is then converted into machine-readable code using computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software. Cutting Process: The router uses its rotary axis to rotate the material while the cutting tool moves along the X, Y, and Z axes to carve, cut, or engrave the material into the desired shape. Finishing: Once the operation is complete, the workpiece is inspected and may require minimal finishing, thanks to the machine’s precision.

Key Features of a Rotary CNC Router Machine High Precision and Accuracy: Rotary CNC routers are known for their precision in handling complex designs, offering high accuracy even in detailed cuts and engravings. Versatility: Whether you’re working with wood, metal, plastic, or composites, the rotary CNC router can handle a wide range of materials. This versatility makes it invaluable for industries such as furniture design, sculpture, and sign-making. 3D Carving and Engraving: With the ability to rotate the material, rotary CNC routers are ideal for creating 3D objects like sculptures, chair legs, moldings, and even complex cylindrical designs. Automation and Efficiency: The CNC aspect automates the cutting process, ensuring uniformity in production and reducing the need for manual labor. This enhances efficiency and speeds up production time.

Why Choose a Rotary CNC Router Machine for Your Business? If your business requires precision, complexity, and scalability, a rotary CNC router is a wise investment. At GK Laser Enterprises, we emphasize the value it can bring to industries like:

Furniture Manufacturing: Intricate 3D carvings and details for chair legs, columns, and sculptures can be easily achieved using rotary CNC routers.

As the foremost producer of printing inks in Iran, Pasargad Iranian Ink Company continuously explores innovative printing methods to meet the diverse needs of its clients. One such method is flexographic printing on sacks, which is widely used in the packaging industry due to its efficiency and versatility. This article delves into the principles of flexographic printing on sacks, the challenges encountered, and the opportunities it presents.

Understanding Flexographic Printing

Flexographic printing, commonly referred to as flexo, is a rotary printing process that utilizes flexible relief plates made of rubber or photopolymer. These plates are wrapped around rotating cylinders on a web press. Flexo is known for its ability to print on a variety of substrates, including paper, plastic, and metallic films, making it ideal for packaging materials such as sacks. Key Components of Flexographic Printing - Printing Plates: Flexible plates that carry the image to be printed. - Anilox Rollers: Cylinders with engraved cells that transfer ink to the printing plates. - Doctor Blades: Remove excess ink from the anilox roller surface. - Substrate: Material onto which the image is printed (e.g., sacks made of woven polypropylene). - Inks: Specialized inks designed for flexographic printing.

Advantages of Flexographic Printing on Sacks

1. Versatility - Wide Range of Substrates: Flexo can print on various materials, including woven sacks, plastic, paper, and metalized films. - Adaptability: Suitable for both small and large print runs, offering flexibility for different production needs. 2.
