Wizcrafts Report post Posted July 9 I'm pulling this out of my hat, which I'm not wearing right now. I do some hot foil embossing in my shop; just words and letters. The press embosses the leather before I add the colored foil. I usually give it two good presses first, then place the foil over the leather and press it for a second or so at 230 degrees. This transfers the gold, silver, brown, white, or black foil to the project. So, since laser engravers use heat to burn into leather, is it possible to dial down the power just enough so it can heat the foil to 230 degrees after you place it over the leather, in effect burning your design in, right through the embossing foil? It might require two passes. The first would have the power needed to burn the design into the leather. The second pass would be at reduced power to fuse the colored foil as an overlay. Thoughts?
