Maker Foundry Settings — Downloading, Exporting & Saving

  • Can I just copy the numbers instead of downloading a file?

    Yes. The Export panel has a Copy button that puts the full setting on your clipboard as plain text — machine, material, operation, power, speed, and the rest. Handy for machines/software that are not LightBurn or xTool, or to paste into your own notes.

  • How do I download/export a setting to my laser software?

    Open any setting page and use the Export panel (you need to be signed in). Depending on the machine you get: LightBurn — a .clb library file.

Your private copies ar...

  • What are Favorites and how do I use them?
