Fit Any Laser Design Patterns to Knives, Plates & Odd Shapes FAST

In this video, I’ll show you how to fit background patterns onto ANY shape in Adobe Illustrator — whether you’re working with pocket knives, plates, or other irregular objects. This is a fast and easy workflow that will save you time and help your designs look clean, professional, and perfectly aligned for laser engraving. If you’ve ever struggled with getting patterns to follow curves, edges, or odd shapes, this method will completely change how you design. Whether you’re creating files for fiber, CO2, or UV lasers, this technique works across the board.
