Engraving Stainless-Steel Products

[ellieholden]

Hi I am new to this - I have only just joined this forum and bought the Creality CR-Laser Falcon 10W a couple of days ago. I have engraved a couple of things using LightBurn and they have gone really well considering it is my first attempt from only following tutorials etc. I am wanting to engrave stainless-steel key chains that I have already purchased, but cannot figure out how to perfectly line them up using the LightBurn software connecting to my machine via USB. Can anybody link me a tutorial or explain how I do this please? I cannot seem to find any information online regarding this, probably because it is pretty straight forward and as a beginner I cannot figure it out lol.

Thanks,
Ellie
