The process of laser engraving and cutting is very simple, just like printing on paper with a computer and printer. You can use CorelDraw and other graphics processing software to design in Win98/Win2000/WinXP environment, and the scanned graphics, vectorized graphics and various CAD files can be easily "printed" into the engraving machine.

The only difference is that printing is to spread toner on paper, while laser engraving is to shoot laser on almost all materials such as wood products, acrylic particles, plastic plates, metal plates and stones.

In order to achieve the expected results, we should pay attention to the following requirements:

Understand the banquet form. Banquets have various forms, which can be simply divided into "birthday banquet", "celebration banquet", "banquet banquet", "family banquet" and "state banquet".

If you know the banquet form, you can carve sculptures suitable for the banquet form to set off the banquet atmosphere. For example, the birthday banquet can be engraved with "Songhe Changchun" and "Longevity Star", the festive banquet can be engraved with "Dragon and Phoenix", "Yuanyang Playing in the Water" and "Peacock Peony", and the celebration banquet can be engraved with "Eagle Spreading its Wings".

Know the customs of the guests. With more and more international contacts between China and other countries, it is necessary to know more about people's living habits, customs, religious beliefs, preferences, taboos, etc. in different countries and regions in order to carve works that guests like.

Highlight the theme. Before carving, we must first determine the theme, conceive the structure and proportion (layout) of the work to be carved, and ensure that the theme is prominent. At the same time, we should consider the foil function of some additional works, such as Birds Facing the Wind and Peacock Peony. Peony flowers, etc. Additional works should not be far-fetched, so as not to gild the lily and not make the finishing point.

When choosing raw materials and performing arts according to their materials, we should choose high-quality and beautiful raw materials, and also consider the shape of raw materials. Generally speaking, the shape of raw materials is similar to the general shape of the image of the work, and the carving is relatively smooth. In addition, we should give full play to the imagination of the author, broaden our horizons, perform artistic expression according to their materials, make the best use of them, and create novel and unique works of art.
