- | * Add Color To Your Laser Engraving: On the YouTube channel, Laser Wood Minnesota, they offer this great tip for coloring fine-detail laser engraving. Use a dye meant for coloring epoxy (such as TransTint), mixed with denatured alcohol. It’s easy to apply and you simply wipe the surface clean which leaves only the deeper engraved surfaces with dye in them. | + | * This is now part of the woodshop training. Any questions, see Woodshop trainer Bill R in the woodshop immediately following the meeting. |
