Introduction
A laser-marked stone is a simple way to turn an ordinary rock into a small piece of art.
With the Aurora Lite, you can mark an alien design onto stone and create a fun decoration for your desk, shelf, or gift box.
In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to laser mark an alien-themed stone step by step. It’s a beginner-friendly project for small gifts, desk decor, or creative display pieces.
Before your work begins
Make sure the Aurora Lite is connected and operating normally
Choose a clean, dry stone with a fairly flat marking area
Place the stone securely so it cannot shift during marking
Check the marking area and make sure the surface faces the laser head
Operational Process
STEP01
Prepare & Position the Material
Choose a clean, dry stone with a fairly flat marking area.
Place it securely in the machine so it stays stable during marking, and make sure the surface you want to mark is facing the laser head.
STEP02
Import & Adjust the Design File
Import the alien design into your marking software and adjust the size to fit the stone surface.
Position the artwork carefully and check that it sits within the usable marking area.
STEP03
Set the Correct Laser Focus
Set the correct focus before marking.
On the Aurora Lite, you can use the red-dot focus assist or the focus stick. If the stone surface is uneven, level it as much as possible and use manual focus for better accuracy.
STEP04
Frame the Design ＆ Start Laser Marking
Use the Frame function first to check the marking position on the stone.
Once the outline looks right, start the marking process and stay nearby to monitor the job as the alien image develops.
STEP05
Post Processing
When marking is finished, remove the stone and wipe away any dust from the surface.
Check the final image, and if needed, gently clean the stone again so the alien design looks clear and ready for display.
Come and Try!
My alien stone is done. What about yours?
Try different stone shapes or alien styles to make a fun little piece for your desk or a gift for someone who loves sci-fi.
