I had an idea, but not sure how many other people would also want/use this.
In the non-Lazer CNC world, there is a way to make the carve in the shape of a V. The bottom is narrow and the top wider. To achieve this with a laser, it would have to be on par with a 3D image.
So the question is, doable? Interested?
There is a ramp setting in Rdworks
I was going to suggest Ramp. I hear rumors that a Ramp feature may be coming to LB some day…
I will play with the ramp settings on RDworks but I am sure it will be limited. Thanks for the suggestion.
Use a lens with a really short focal length - like 5mm.
Ramp mode in LightBurn is basically done, and in test. There are a couple of small bugs in the acceleration structure being used to speed it up, but I expect those to get ironed out relatively soon.
Since I have a “stamp” job to do, this can’t come soon enough. It’s been so long since I ran RDWorks, I actually forgot how much I hated it.
You know what they say: “Once you go LightBurn you can never return!”
Are they actually saying that now?
If they aren’t, they should.
I’m pretty much saying that now. I haven’t fired up RD in Months!
