Add Authenticity to your works with Beam Studio’s Built-In “Image Trace” Function
FLUX’s built-in software Beam Studio comes with a brilliant “Image Trace” function that can keep your original pen strokes and add a more personal touch to your artworks. For a quick demonstration, I’ll show you how I make a personalized keychain by using the “Image Trace” function.
Things you’d need to DIY a signature keychain:
- 1 piece of paper
- 1 marker
- Desired material for your keychain charm
- 1 keyring
- beamo
Step 1: Sign your signature on a clean and unpatterned paper with a black marker
Step 2: Scan the paper with beamo
- Place the paper in beamo and click the camera icon for the “Camera Preview”
2. Click the “Image Trace” button in the upper left corner
3. Select a starting preset to trace the image
4. Adjust the optimal parameter for engraving
Step 3: Put the selected material in beamo and set up a suitable parameter for engraving, in my case, a 3mm wood board
One of the optimal parameters for engraving wood boards is power 30% and speed 100mm/s.
Step 4: Design the keychain outline
Create another layer and use the preset parameter in Beam Studio “wood- 3mm cutting”, which is power 60% and speed 6 mm/s.
Step 5: Assemble the engraved signature charm with a keyring and your special signature keychain is ready to go.
