Create custom laser engraved yoga blocks with an Epilog Laser system for your friends and local yoga studios. Yoga blocks come in various types of materials like wood, cork and foam (polyurethane), all of which are perfect for engraving with a laser system.
Follow these simple steps and you will be on your way to creating a collection of yoga blocks that are sure to enhance your yoga experience.
We used a 75-watt Fusion M2 32 with the following settings:
Foam Blocks: Raster// Speed 100% // Power 45% // DPI 150 // Stucki
Cork Blocks: Raster// Speed 100% // Power 50% // DPI 300 // Stucki
To Create the Yoga Block Outline: Scan the yoga block and bring it into your graphic design software. Create an outline around the yoga block for the laser to follow using your software's pen tool. With the lid of your laser open and Red Dot Pointer turned on, send the vector outline to the laser and adjust your yoga block's positioning on the engraving table.
This will give you a visual indicator of where the design will engrave - adjust the template accordingly for each yoga block. When you're happy with the placement, send the raster job over.
Once you have modified the artwork to your liking, it's time to laser. Insert the yoga block into the system and move to the upper left corner of the table. Next, run the vector outline (remember to have the red dot pointer on and leave the lid open) to ensure your placement is where you want. Once you're satisfied, send the job to the laser and press go!
