Help engraving Dog photo

Brand new to this and trying to engrave a photo of my dog onto 1/2 plywood. Using an Ortur 20W and I set power to 75% and speed to 190. What can I change to make this better?

These posts should help and are worth review:

Hi,

There are so many possibilities and some, many infact most may not even meet your taste.

It’s slower, but much much better to test different options and build up the library and options you like, personally :crazy_face::sunglasses::sunglasses:

And it’s fun…a little something from my experience was to select the part of the image that is most important to you, at the final burn size and work just with that part of the image, not the whole thing.

That way you save time, material and nerves :thinking::grin::grin::grin:

If you make the entire image smaller, the engraving will not keep those same qualities when you increase the size to your final engrave size.

Hope this helps

Gary
