What Can I Make? — Laser Tool Finder

Tell us the job and we point you at the exact tool, what it outputs, and what it costs before you spend a credit — photo engraving, scrollwork, 3D coins, maps, boxes, settings and more.

Capabilities & Feature Set

  • A job-to-tool index covering photo engraving, vector tracing, scrollwork, 3D coins, maps, boxes, puzzles and tumbler wraps.
  • Credit cost and output format shown on every entry before you open the tool, including which tools are completely free.
  • Plain-language search so you can look up the material or the object instead of the product name.

A production-first workflow

What Can I Make? — Laser Tool Finder is designed around the full laser job, not a disconnected preview. Start with the best available source artwork, set the real material and machine constraints, inspect small details at output size, and export the format your control software expects. Before using an expensive blank or finished part, verify dimensions, focus, layer assignments, and power settings on comparable scrap. Save the successful result with the job notes so repeat orders begin from a proven setup.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Reticle Red engrave items for me?

No. Reticle Red is software, not an engraving service. You bring the laser; the tools here produce the artwork, cut files, depth maps and machine settings you run on your own machine in LightBurn or whatever you already use.

Which tools are free?

Every client-side tool: photo prep and dithering, all laser calculators, the Laser Data Library, Box Maker, Puzzle Generator, Image Slicer, V-Carve Text, Tumbler Templates, Bulk Personalizer, Burn Card and Production Bridge. Only server-side AI calls — pattern generation, vectorization, AI depth maps — consume credits.

How do I know what a tool costs before I use it?

Every entry on this page shows its credit cost up front, resolved from the same live pricing the credits page reads. Tools that make no AI call are marked FREE.

I want a depth map for a 3D coin — which tool?

The Coin Designer 3D mint. It is a two-stage pipeline that sculpts the coin artwork and generates the matching 16-bit depth map together, sized to a round blank. Neural Relief is the tool for turning a photo you already have into a relief depth map.
