More fun with the Chomas Creations precision tip and a coupon hehe!


I'm so excited on how these all worked out!  I had engraved on all of these with the Chomas Creations precision tip in either the Cricut or Silhouette and then used a Sharpie to color on them and it worked!!!  The afters are  on top, as you can tell lol, and the befores are on the bottom.
I used a fine point Sharpie, colored over the entire etched area, then used rubbing alcohol to get the excess off and I was left with what you see!
And before I go too far how about a coupon coupon code for those ready to give this a go!  Use the code nov2019 until 11-25 to save 10% off your purchase in the Chomas Creations store... Chomas Creations store


It worked just as well on the acrylic, same idea, cover the entire area and rub the excess off with rubbing alcohol. 




Even the tiniest of tiny objects worked, these charms are just 1/2 inch around.

Chomas Creations precision tip in the Silhouette


Look at those details!  Those charms are just 1/2 inch in diameter.  Crazy small!  The font is easy to read and I can't wait to add them to some of my diffuser bracelets.
I added the Chomas Creations precision tip to the Silhouette Cameo to do these.  You can find them here... Silhouette tools
The easiest way to line them up is to start by cutting a piece out of cardstock the same size as the material you are going to engrave on.  I cut a 1/2 inch circle and then added my charm to the mat.  It lines up perfect every time.  Here's a video engraving on these tiny charms...

Chomas Creations precision tip in the Silhouette Cameo on bracelet cuffs

I got out the Silhouette Cameo today to play around with these bracelet cuffs and the Chomas Creations precision tip.  These bracelets are just 1/4 inch wide so imagine just how tiny those fonts are :)  I did make a template where I first cut out the size of the bracelet on cardstock so that I could line it up best in the machine.  I did slow the speed down and did a multi cut of 3.

 Just a heads up that it is very tough to take pics of shiny things!!!
If you want to see the video of it in action you can go here...

Chomas Creations precision tip in the Engraver

I had bought these thinner 1/4 inch bracelets from ImpressArt and I was struggling to get the Chomas Creations engraving tip to etch on the piece because it was too thin and the blade kept getting stuck on the edge of it.  I had this thought to add some of the thicker bracelets on either side of it and it worked like a charm!  I also made another template so I knew exactly where to add my bracelet.  Works like a charm!  I have a tutorial down a few posts below on how I did this as well as a video.

And happy news to all my Explore fans out there, these will work in the Explore as well.  They also go in the right side in place of the blade.










 This is the tool you can get for the ImpressArt to bend the bracelets.  So easy to do!

Engraving blanks with the Chomas Creations engraving tip


With all the engraving going on I was asked by quite a few people if you could engrave on jewerly blanks and now the answer is in!  YES you can!  Of course some of these worked better then others, and I was sent a large variety by Rachel to try.  Thanks Rachel!  Keep in mind these look much better in person.  Taking a picture of something shiny is near impossible!
I used the Chomas Creations engraving tip in the Silhouette Cameo with a thickness of 33, a speed of 4 and double cut.  I also have a tutorial on how to line up the blanks in the Cameo here... tutorial
