Aluminum dogs tags with the Chomas Creations engraving tip

What amazing me the most about the Chomas Creations engravers is how very small you can make details and fonts. I used the Chomas Creations engraving tip on these aluminum dog tags with a speed of 5 and a pressure of 33 and a multi cut of 5. If you use double sided adhesive the tags won't wiggle on the mat when you are engraving.
A template is key when you try to engrave on anything. I measure the area I'm going to engrave on and for these I made a rectangle the size of the area where the names went and then cut that rectangle out of a scrap of paper. After that I apply the tag in the area when I am going to do the engraving and it lines up perfect every time.

Cuff bracelets with the Chomas Creations precision tip in the Cameo 4

Want to know how I filled the font on these bracelets? I made a quick video you can see on YouTube here...

Of course this will work with all the Silhouette machines but I was using my new Cameo 4 to celebrate the face that the new Chomas Creations tools for the Cameo 4 are now shipping! You can order here... http://amychomas.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=1_18
I used the Chomas Creations engraving tip in the Cameo 4 to make these cuff bracelets from ImpressArts. I used a pressure of 33, a speed of 10 and a multicut of 2. I then darkened in the top bracelet with Sharpie and rubbed the excess off with rubbing alcohol.

I found a bottle opener on etsy that was under 3 mm so I gave it a go for engraving in my Cameo 4 with the Chomas Creations precision tip. It was anodized aluminum and did take multiple passes to get through. I used a pressure of 33 and speed of 3. I think it turned out cute and plan on trying on more!
I did use double sided adhesive to secure it to the mat. I just added a video to the Chomas Creations YouTube channel to help see how I did it.

Cuff bracelets with the Chomas Creations precision tip in the Cameo 4


Playing around today with some copper blanks I got on etsy. They are the cuff bracelets so they are flat when they go into your machine and you bend them when they come out.  
I made sure to use double sided adhesive to stick them to my mat then engraved on them with the Chomas Creations precision tip.  This was in the Cameo 4 but there are also engraving tips for the entire line of Silhouette machines.   The design was from the Silhouette store. After I colored in the engraved design with Sharpie and used rubbing alcohol to get the extra off.  
I used a pressure of 30, speed of 3 and multi cut of 4.
