Slate Coaster Guide: Settings, Troubleshooting & Results


In this video, I walk you through my full process for laser engraving slate coasters from start to finish. This is not just a general overview. I cover how I pick the slate, prep the surface, build the design, set up the laser, engrave the coaster, and finish it using the approach I like for daily use pieces. I also explain why I use mineral oil, how I think about coated versus natural finishes, and what I check when an engraving comes out lighter than expected. This video also closes out my recent slate coaster series and gives you one full follow along workflow in one place.
