Here you find a list of steps to engrave a design on metal or glass using the vinyl cutter and sandblasting. This list was originally made to help to remember the engraving with sandblasting course and is might therefore not be self-explanatory at every step. It is always better to first make a course, or ask someone from the community that has engraved and/or sandblasted before. | Here you find a list of steps to engrave a design on metal or glass using the vinyl cutter and sandblasting.

There are different ways to do this. Roland Cut Studio Pro officially supports jpg, bmp, png, stx, Adobe Illustrator Ai/EPS. (More info: https://support.rolanddg.com/hc/en-us/articles/6566820167321-File-formats-that-can-be-imported-into-Roland-CutStudio) | |||
Below you find steps for png, jpg and ai. | |||
'''1) Trace an png or jpg image directly in Roland Cut Studio.''' | |||
(If you do it directly in Roland Cut Studio you might first want to prepare the machine (Step 2 below) to get the sice of your vinyl (In Step 3 below). | |||
- Simply drop an image (png, jpg) into the program | |||
- Right click -> Image outlines -> play with settings -> extract countour lines. | |||
- Now the lines are ready for cutting | |||
2) Use vector / ai | |||
Sadly the program cannot read .svg so you need to translate into .ai version 8 | |||
