Cutting out a shape

Hey all,

Trying to cut out this crest after I engrave it on a piece of 1/8 birch plywood. Anyone able to help me understand how to do this ?

  1. Use LightBurn trace feature to trace the image
  2. Select the traced vector
  3. Use offset tool with the option of “Outer shapes only”, Outward to create overall outline.
  4. Delete initial traced vector
  5. Set layer properties
  6. Burn

So I got it all done until the last step where you say “Burn”… The only options I get are line, fill, offset fill, Fill + Line. How do I get the burn option ?

Place the outline around the area that you want to cut out. Set the Cut layer properties to “Line” with the appropriate settings.

By Burn I meant press the “Start” button or Send to laser. As in it’s ready to go at that point.
