"Never judge a book by its cover," he says, but what about judging a person by their phone case? Phone cases allow us to personalize our phones and set us apart from other phones. Dog lovers might choose to show off their pup with a custom dog phone case, while minimalists might opt for a sleek holster.
In general, it depends on your style. But with so many options for phone cases, it can be difficult to sort through all the fluff and find a good one. Enter the laser etcher Machine, which allows you to create custom designs and etch them directly onto the phone case!
Set yourself apart from the competition with your creativity and our laser technology. Read on to learn more about how to make a laser-carved phone case!
Select a phone case material.
Depending on the laser etchers you use, the type of material you can use may vary. Many of our CO2 laser engraving machines can etch thin metals such as acrylic, rubber, cork, wood, leather, and aluminum. The Polar desktop Laser engraving machine is an especially user-friendly device with an all-inclusive package that is both compact and intuitive for beginners.
Acrylic housing is durable and transparent, providing a clean, polished surface that accentuates your custom design. Wood, on the other hand, is a natural yet rustic carved canvas that offers a classic yet handmade look.
Others may opt for a suitcase, which demonstrates a professional mindset. The personal carving carved into the leather phone case is perfect for detail-conscious people who love even the smallest accessories. Make sure to choose a material for your custom phone case - one that is compatible with your laser machine and one that meets your preferences.
Create your design
Now that you've chosen your materials, it's time to present your design. The laser etchers use Lightburn software. If you're not familiar with this software, check out our article on how to use Lightburn.
With Lightburn, you can design your images or import them. Figure out what you want to carve on your phone case - whether it's your favorite artwork, a meaningful quotation, or an abstract pattern.
When choosing a design for your custom phone case, keep in mind the engraving areas available on the phone case. You don't want your image to be too big to capture or too small to see. Also, if you are importing a design, make sure its size and resolution are clear.
