Step 1: Preparing the engraving machine
Before you start engraving, make sure that your engraver is fully charged. A powerful and well-charged device makes work easier and ensures clean results. This is the first and most important step to ensure that your project runs smoothly DIY-Project runs smoothly.
Step 2: Create the template
Now it's time to get creative! Print out the template that you would like to transfer to your storage jar. This can be a simple pattern, a name or a decorative motif. We have also created a free template that you can download. Be creative and choose a design that inspires you.
Step 3: Integrate the template into the glass
Insert the printed template into the inside of the jar. This way you can make sure that the design is correctly aligned and you can see exactly where you need to engrave later. This method will make your work much easier, especially if you are engraving a glass for the first time.
Step 4: Prepare the lines
Take a foil pen and carefully draw the lines of the template onto the glass. Pre-drawing gives you a clear orientation when you start engraving.
Step 5: Prepare the engraving pen
Now insert the diamond cutter ball into the engraving pen. This is an important part, as the diamond cutter ball was specially developed for engraving glass. It enables you to make clean and even engravings.
Step 6: Engrave glass
Switch your engraving pen to the highest setting and slowly begin to trace the pre-painted lines on the glass. Make sure to apply even pressure to achieve a clean result. Hold the device steady and concentrate on the details of your design. Take your time - the result will be worth it!
Step 7: Cleaning and final inspection
Once you have finished engraving, carefully wash the glass to remove any line residue from the foil pen. Your customized storage jar is now ready for presentation!
