Magic canvas is a feature of the popular laser cutter and engraver, Glowforge. Glowforge is a versatile tool that allows users to create custom designs and projects using different materials such as wood, acrylic, leather, and more. With the magic canvas feature, users can easily align and position their designs on the material they are working with, ensuring precise and accurate results. The magic canvas feature is particularly useful when working with materials that are not perfectly flat or have irregular edges. It allows users to place their design elements in the desired position, even if the material is not perfectly aligned or has an uneven surface. The feature automatically adjusts the design to compensate for any irregularities, ensuring a perfect fit and alignment every time.
The altercation seemed to stem from talk from the Magic bench, particularly Bamba. A few moments earlier, Rivers missed a 3-point attempt in front of the Orlando bench, and Bamba and Markelle Fultz could be seen reacting to the miss.
You obviously want to have your teammate s back and at the same time, you ve got to be a professional, said Orlando center Moritz Wagner, also involved in a skirmish with Detroit in December. Minnesota guard Austin Rivers and Magic center Mo Bamba were the initial players involved, and it spilled over to include several others on the court.

Fight between Magic, Timberwolves leads to five players ejected
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — A fight broke out and punches were thrown during the game between the Orlando Magic and Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday night.
Five players were ejected following the brawl, which started in front of the Orlando bench late in the third quarter. Minnesota guard Austin Rivers and Magic center Mo Bamba were the initial players involved, and it spilled over to include several others on the court.
Rivers, Jaden McDaniels and Taurean Prince were ejected from the Timberwolves. Jalen Suggs was tossed along with Bamba for Orlando, which went on to win 127-120.
“This isn’t like a cool moment for me,” Rivers said after the game. “I feel embarrassed. I’m the oldest on the team. I consider myself the leader of the team, or one of the leaders of the team. It was a weird game, and I don’t think that helped at all. If anything right now, I’m just (ticked off) that we lost, and that I had (something) to do with that. It doesn’t make me feel good.”
Bamba and Suggs were not available for comment after the game.
“You obviously want to have your teammate's back and at the same time, you’ve got to be a professional," said Orlando center Moritz Wagner, also involved in a skirmish with Detroit in December.
"So, that’s a challenge for a young team like us. I think this time around we did a good job compared to last time. So, yeah, I don’t really know. It’s a weird dynamic. You don’t really want to be in those situations and it’s not really the best look. You want to be professional. At the same time, there is something in me that appreciates the team sticking together like that.”
Wagner appeared to get knocked out in that fight with the Pistons in Detroit. Wagner and Detroit's Killian Hayes and Hamadou Diallo were all ejected.
On this night, the fight began with Rivers right in front of the Magic bench as play was ongoing at the far end of the court. Bamba came off the bench and Rivers threw punches at him. Suggs later pulled Rivers away and swung him to the court. McDaniels and Prince joined the scrum.
“Their guy came off the bench and threw a punch,” Timberwolves coach Chris Finch said. “Pretty egregious. Then it’s a melee, and somehow our guys get punished a lot worse. One guy got sent for not being a peacekeeper. I just looked at the film, and I didn’t see any difference between what their guys were doing and what our guys were doing.”
The altercation seemed to stem from talk from the Magic bench, particularly Bamba. A few moments earlier, Rivers missed a 3-point attempt in front of the Orlando bench, and Bamba and Markelle Fultz could be seen reacting to the miss.
Rivers said he approached the 7-foot, 231-pound Bamba about his comments.
“I’m not gonna snitch on the dude or whatever, but I just didn’t like the way he was talking to me,” said Rivers, listed at 6-4 and 200 pounds. “For no reason, too. I don’t even know that dude. I don’t know anything about him. Obviously, I just know he’s a player for the Magic. And he proceeded to talk, so that next possession, when I went down there, I just said, pretty much, ‘Just keep it respectful, bro.’”
Rivers later added: “I went up to him and I pressed him, and at that point, it can go one of two ways. I didn’t think we were going to get in a fight. But when you stand up that fast and put your hands up — he threw a punch and missed, thankfully. At that point, I've got to protect myself. Ain’t no one worried about him."
The fight came one night after an on-court altercation between Memphis Grizzlies guard Dillon Brooks and Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell.
Brooks swung and struck Mitchell in the groin area during the third quarter Thursday after the Grizzlies guard had fallen to the floor. Mitchell retaliated by throwing the ball at Brooks and then shoving him.
Both players were ejected from Cleveland’s 128-113 win. Afterward, Mitchell accused Brooks of being a dirty player.
The NBA announced punishments for both players Friday, with Brooks getting suspended one game without pay and Mitchell fined $20,000.
Rivers said he approached the 7-foot, 231-pound Bamba about his comments.
This activates a grid that can be overlaid onto the working area. Users can then align their design elements with the gridlines, making it easy to position them accurately. In addition to alignment, the magic canvas feature also includes other useful tools such as grouping and distributing. Users can group together multiple design elements and move them as a single unit, making it easier to manipulate complex designs. The distributing tool allows users to evenly space out multiple design elements, ensuring a balanced and aesthetically pleasing result. Overall, the magic canvas feature of Glowforge is a valuable tool for anyone using the laser cutter and engraver. It simplifies the design process, ensuring precise alignment and positioning of design elements. Whether working with flat materials or objects with irregular surfaces, the magic canvas feature makes it easy to create beautiful and professional-looking projects with ease..
Reviews for "Creating Personalized Gifts with Glowforge's Magic Canvas"
1. John - 2 stars - I was really excited to try the Magic Canvas Glowforge, but I was disappointed with the results. The advertised "magic" aspect of the product is completely misleading. The designs on the canvas did not come out as crisp and clear as I had hoped. Additionally, the software was quite clunky and difficult to navigate. Overall, I found the Glowforge to be underwhelming and not worth the price tag.
2. Sarah - 1 star - I regret purchasing the Magic Canvas Glowforge. The quality of the final engravings was extremely poor. The images were pixelated and lacked the sharpness that was promised. The machine is also quite noisy and emits a strong odor while operating, which made it unbearable to use for extended periods of time. I was sorely disappointed and would not recommend this product to anyone.
3. Michael - 2 stars - The Magic Canvas Glowforge fell short of my expectations. The engraving process took much longer than I anticipated, and the machine often produced inconsistent results. The designs on the canvas were not evenly engraved, and there were noticeable flaws and imperfections in the final output. Considering the high price point, I expected better performance and quality. Unfortunately, I would not buy this product again.
4. Emily - 2 stars - I was not impressed with the Magic Canvas Glowforge. The engraving capabilities were limited and the designs I attempted to create lacked the level of detail that I was hoping for. Additionally, the machine frequently experienced technical issues and would often freeze or crash during operation. The overall user experience was frustrating, and I found myself preferring other engraving options over this one.
