Making a jig for pencil engraving using the xTool M1 Laser and Blade cutting machine

- After my last video, a number of people asked me to share how I made the jig I use to cut multiple pens. In this video, I am making a new jig for some pencils. The time it takes to make a jig, will save you more than that in the long run.

I make these weekly videos to share the love and passion I have for creating the products available on the webstore and to show my customers the products are all handmade. These are not “How to” videos. If you would like to learn more about how to make soap and other bath and body products, I found the below websites and UA-cam channels to be helpful.

I doubt I will ever own such a machine but I still found the video fascinating.
I would never say never 🧡 sometimes if we want something badly enough, we can find a way
Thank you so much. I haven't taken my m1 out of the box yet. Its been like 3 to 4 months now, but you make it seem like I can do this
You can definitely do it. Just take it one step at a time and accept things may not be perfect first time. I highly recommend joining the Facebook group
Thank you. I will. But then I am Dutch speaking so 😂 that is a problem too. I wil follow the Facebook group and hope you make many more videos. You make it look easy
You are such a talented girl. When it comes to wording, you are very good at it. I would have issues just trying to figure the machine out! Can't wait to see what all you design and think up. Thanks for the tutorial.
Cheers 👍 🎄
Thank you 🧡 sometimes it's just taking things one step at a time and soon you can easily do things. I love creating with the machine
I’m getting an F1 from xtool and I can’t wait!!!! Been binging on your xtool videos ❤
Thank you so much for watching! I know how busy you must be. You've been very inspirational!
I was sent the F1 this week and can't wait to unbox and play. Will definitely be doing a few extra videos. Have fun playing with yours.
You’re inspiring too!!! ❤
Well done Keeley. Nice to see you utilising all the different options this wonderful xTool has to offer. Experimenting is half the fun but sadly a lot of people think that everything they produce the first time will work - it is a sad reality when you try to explain, it may look easy on a UA-cam video, but everything take time and practice to get it right. You always make everything look so easy. Keep up the great work and I hope you had a great day. xxx 🎂🎂💖💖
Thank you 🧡 it's so true. Most people show a video after many practise runs so they get everything perfect but it does take time and practise. I like to show that it doesn't always go right the first time and we have to work towards what we want 🧡 I'm loving the machine and have decided everyone gets personalised Christmas presents this year 😆
Thank you for another great video! You're a natural teacher.
Thank you 🧡 I love that I can share
Perfect! So glad you did this video!!
Thank you 🧡 so pleased it helped
How wonderful is that video. Have you tried to make laser, vinyl and leather tags? Colour? :)
For Christmas, I did etch/engrave some faux leather pencil cases for a friend, and I have got a few other pieces I'm looking to experiment with soon.
Great video thanks for sharing, I want to make pencil for my nephew he wants black pencils, can you recommend setting on them? Thanks
Thank you for watching. It is hard to give good recommendations on settings as so many things can affect the final result including the type of wood, the type of paint etc. Make sure you have more pencils than you need and use one as a tester. I recommend starting with the 3mm Bamboo setting and going from there.
Really liked you videos, both for the pencil and the bamboo pens. I have found available pens by am having trouble finding as source of blank pencils I only want a few to try before I order bulk quantities. Can you help?
Thank you for watching. I found pencils at the local stationery store and they offer both small packs as well as bulk packs for business use.
Thank you for watching 🧡
