My new sign from @lightning.laser which I think completes my exhibition wall at The Spa Galleries Tunbridge Wells beautifully. Perfect 👌 Here today until 5. ⭐️

How long did it take you to notice the little paint palette kitties? 🐱 🎨 We LOVE these pin badges we made recently for @niaski 🥰 #creative #uvprinting #pinbadges #lasercut #catlover

Going into the weekend like 🥳 We’ve had a very busy week here at Lightning Laser! Lots of orders and lots of new ideas in the works💡 We hope you’re all as excited as Caroline is with the sign we made for @riciclecards ☺️ #signage #creative #lasercut #smallbusiness #engraving

FAQ time! 🎨 We know that some customers want the bare wood to show on their products (and we think it looks great) but a lot of the time the decorations have the colour added after they’ve left us ➡️ ⚡️Can I paint and add colour onto my wooden decorations and charms myself?⚡️ Yes you can! A few of our customers regularly paint or lino print onto their wooden designs and we think the outcome is beautiful! It’s quite common that those customers order basic engraved wooden designs and once they make it to them, they paint or ink them. Just like @squirrelbandit 🌼 We would always recommend testing your paints, primers or materials on a sample before committing, especially if you’ve never done it before. You can order a sample of your own designs on our website, alternatively, we have a free sample pack that you can order. This includes a few different materials that you can try out your supplies on the back of, just to make sure you’re happy with the outcome! Would you add painted decorations to your store?

How beautiful are these pin badges we made for @benningsarah 🌼 We love the wood showing through to create the outlines of the design. #flowers #pinbadges #creative #lasercut #uvprinting

Want to see our process of making @carashanleyart_sketchingfife lovely bookmarks 😍 These bookmarks use all 3 processes, UV printing, engraving and cutting. These are all assembled and packed up by Caroline ⚡️ #bookmarks #bookworm #uvprinting #lasercut #smallbusiness

The final product for @drawberrymilkshake 😊😈 These ‘cute but deadly’ 30mm wooden pin badges are part of @drawberrymilkshake gachapon series (and I personally may be a little biased, but I’m obsessed with these 😍) #gacha #creative #uvprinting #lasercut #lasercutting

FAQ: I painted my designs, how do I send them to you? We still have a lot of potential/existing customers who prefer creating their work by painting and drawing on paper instead of a tablet, so this question still crops up! The first way we recommend is to scan your artwork in. If you have a desktop printer with a scanner at home, then this will most likely do the trick. Most at home printers have scanners which are very capable. In order to get the best from your scanned artwork we recommend checking some settings, just so your work is set up correctly. - We recommend that your scan has a high resolution. A minimum of 300dpi is recommended to get the best out of your artwork. (The higher the number, the better the resolution is) - We also recommend that your scan is in CMYK. If this isn’t possible, you are more than welcome to submit your artwork to us, and we will convert it for you. Just a note, in some instances converting your art to CMYK may cause some colours to appear slightly more dull or washed out. If you don’t have access to a scanner, you can also take a photo of your artwork. Just make sure that your photo is taken in bright, even lighting, and your photo is taken face on. Once you have your digital file, you can upload it alongside your order via our website. If you would like us to check that everything looks okay before ordering, feel free to pop this over to us via email [email protected], and we’d be happy to take a look! These beautiful designs are by @lucytidburyart 🐮 #smallbusiness #creative #lasercut #uvprinting #painting

It’s always time for a cuppa ☕️ @guernseymade We had the pleasure of making some wooden charms that are going to be used as coasters 🫖 We don’t get this question often, but yes, we can make coasters! Printing a clear layer before any colour makes sure that the coasters last well against the hot cups of tea (or coffee) that are placed on them. #lasercut #uvprinting #smallbusiness #creative #lasercutting

FAQ: What is the smallest and largest size that you can print and cut? ⚡️ We can print and cut such a wide range of sizes using our high tech UV printers and Laser cutting machines. Our UV printers print to a really high resolution, meaning we can print some pretty tiny items, as well as larger items, all with the same great quality! For example we have recently made some acrylic and wooden charms for @mellowmelynco ,@littledoorsofleyton and @skipandoat ranging in size between 15mm - 40mm. We also make some sweet little earrings for @theticketyboocoo which are usually sized around 7-9mm! These are probably the smallest items we regularly make⚡️ As for larger items, we regularly make signage ranging between 400mm-600mm in size. 600mm x 400mm is the largest size that we can fit within our UV printers and laser cutters, making our machines perfect for signage and anything in between. 💛 We get questions about our services all the time, so if there’s anything you’d love us to answer that isn’t in our FAQs on our website, pop it in the comments below!
