An even simpler way to make a pattern with stuff you already probably have, is to use hot glue on a hard flat surface. I did it this way when I was a child. It works pretty well and it's really easy.
As a designer (UX/UI) I am excited and inspired by product design especially woodworking and embossing/debossing. Your attention to detail is impeccable. That home-made embossing pen thingy looks like an expensive precision tool.
You are so multi talented. I'm always learning something new when watching your videos.

That's what I was thinking. She is an engineer, artist, and handyman all in one.
Hey! great video! An easy way to check the deepness setting of your CNC is to use an multi-meter in continuity check mode. Simply tape a small square of aluminium paper on your material and check the continuity between the CNC mill and the aluminium square. As soon as the continuity is reached, the CNC mill is just touching the material. It's easy, cheap and aluminum paper sheets are thinner than paper ones.
you knew i'm multi talented just like you,but i don't have machines to realise a lot of thing you are the best of caurse, ; ) it's realy amazing to watch your videos i'm moroccan youtuber
I love people like you, work well, talk small. Just a great video. BTW, the same process can be done with hand printing press.
Well I need to try this, not only because the end product will be incredible if it's anywhere near as nice as yours, but also because I absolutely love carving linoleum so any excuse I can get to do it more often I'll gladly take!
Very cool ! I like the fact that from an angle the paper looks blank...and then you discover the tree !
Embossing by hand at home materials: 1. CNC machine 1000$ to 50000$ 2. Wood press 20$ to 100$ 3. Sand paper 5$ 4. Electric sanding machine 50$ to 500$ 5. Metal and wood bar 25$ 6. Wood base 15$ 7. Optional wood varnish 10$ The experience of embossing by yourself with your own hands, priceless!
Thank you! Now I know more than I knew before, lol. Easy to follow AND inspiring. Also, calming.
You're a miracle. I'm blessed to came across your posts every now and then. Love you.
Great video as always =) I am a student right now, so I can't afford Patreon, but if I could - your channel is definitively one I would support! Your creativity is awesome and contagious =) Thanks for sharing =)

you can use your CNC por a female and male template and then use a press for the paper
Thanks for the tutorial! The linoleum block was something I’ve never seen before~ what an awesome idea!!
one need all these machinery and the knowledge to make this tool ,well who all can do this ?great technician you are, wonderful to watch you working !! Leave this to my next life ,had great desire to learn though !!
Carving into linoleum is a lot harder then you think, especially if your weak af, I made a print for art class and it was painful to my wrist after a while of continuous carving , but it is very relaxing like it was said in the video
Love embossing! It really makes print designs pop. We feature a few of these projects on our channel as well and always love when people send in cool embossing projects!
I've only done linoleum block carving to use with ink and make cards. Good idea to try it your way
Thanks great video Currently doing my MFA at the Pensylvania Academy of Fine Arts
Wow I really like those ideas I don't know where you come out with this I ideas but this is why I love watching your videosI love the imaginations and the work you put into
You really do need to watch this all the way through bc she does show a cool method using accessible tools and I did have a great laugh @how to emboss without a machine but you'll need: CNC Milling Machine Wooden dowel Brass dowel Table clamp Metal saw Wood saw Electronic caliper Drill Sanding machine Wax varnish And paper lol;) I drooled at the CNC - how fun it must be to have all those cool tools
if you have access to screw clamps (or the ability to make some) you can make a simple 1 tonne press to emboss whole pieces all at once. You'll need some blocking (padding) to get the effect. Dense wool sheets work well, felt can work too. It's good to have a sheet or two of newsprint (
Thank you so much. Your explanation is so thorough. You have a new subscriber. Love from Shillong, India.
Very happy I found you. Thanks
That's amazing! Was looking around to find a solution on how to hand emboss and will definetely try it out! Thanksa lot!

i love your channel so much! PLEASE make more videos about furniture and so!!!!! you are so good in this! damn. the sounds in the background are the best really i enjoy all of you!
I bought metallic paper that I hope I can replicate your results with. I also am thinking to use a stamp so I don't have to come up with any designs myself for the block... although aware it might be a bit spooky negative space? Hope you are doing well!
Wonderful tuition with that linoleum carving idea. thanks
I was your fan here in Brazil, you are very creative and skillful.
Omg this is fantastic. I have a piece of lino I've been thinking what to do with, and I was wondering how to emboss so I'm thrilled
Great that great idea, I admire your skill, and creativity, a great example for many young and old, if so, do not get tired of making these videos, at least here tienens a follower,

Hey its really true what they say. The only limit to creativity is ones imagination 🤓. With that being said. What material did you use for the engraving on the xcarve? 😯

another method maybe? You just create another template that is a positive of the first template then clamp the two together using a hydraulic press with paper in between?

You are SO cool. What you’re doing is cool too, but I love your style sense; I just had to say that.
how deep can you make the negative before it is so deep that it would tear the paper?
I like your hair!

hello, awesome details, what is the name of the plate black where the cnc draw?
"If you don't have a CNC machine..." I making the stencils for the embossing on a 3D printer is nowerdays also a very cost effective alternative. And if you don't own a 3D printer yourself, I am sure you'll find someone who does nearby meanwhile (this video is 4.5 years old now, aged well! ;))
Love how sweet and cool you are. Great vid! Gunna be incorporating this into my work somehow :)
I love the Laura Kampf t shirt
YOURE A GENUIS!!! WOW SO IMPRESSIVE!
This is such a cool video! Thank you for sharing! You are very talented!
You should make those pens with the metal piece and sell them online you would probably make good money off of them as well just an idea I would love to purchase one
it's soooo satisfying.
Great video as always, I'll try the linoleum method!! hugs and kisses ✨
