Burning the lightburn grid

[Guernourien (Lee Matthews)]

Hi all.
I have my lightburn grid set to the size of my burn area. I now want to burn the grid onto my base board to help with positioning of my work pieces. Is there an easy way of doing this or do i have to manually draw all the burn lines on to of the grid and then burn them as a job.

Make a horizontal and vertical line matching your bad dimensions, then array copy each.

Yes and yes. As mentioned above, and in this post below, here are the steps to achieve what you are after.

Waste board grid

You could draw two lines, one vertical and one horizontal, sized to match that of your workspace and use the ‘Array’ tools to create a grid quickly. Set this grid layer to ‘Line’ and set appropriate speed and power to just mark your wasteboard. [image] Here I have set the ‘Array’ spacing to match that of my LightBurn ‘Visual Grid Setting’ found in the ‘Settings’ window, currently set to 10mm.
