Wow this video is very in-depth, thank you! I'm glad you showed it working for stainless steel cutlery, cuz that's exactly what I was gonna use it for! :)
Glad it was helpful! Happy engraving - let me know how it goes for you!
Your hands dance perfectly and the results are gorgeous. 🌷
You’re so kind! Thank you.
Thank youuuuuu 😍😍
Literally the questions you were asking me earlier today hahaha! Hope you’ll find it helpful! 😍
Thank you so much for this video, Leah!! Loved your detailed walk through. And how good are Laura's engraving tools?! Love and light to you.
You are so welcome! Laura’s engraver and the one I got from aliexpress are pretty much the same! 😄
Where do you buy the bits??
Thank you very much... you made it look relatively easy. 😊 Im keen to try this craft and have purchased a Yokefellow nail engraver, but the jingling burs dont fit. The shank size needs to be 3/32" to take these burs. So what brand añd size burs do these machines use. Thank you!
When you say it doesn’t fit, do you mean your bur is bigger or smaller?
The bur is too big ...
Ah that’s odd! 3/32 inches is correct. Either your engraver or burs’ the issue, but it’s more likely the burs. Check if you ordered the right size. It should be 3/32 inches or 2.35 mm.
Thanks for your reply. 12:16 I've bought a Dremel Stylo with a chuck. So all good. Have tried in the base of metal drink bottle. It did bounce a bit, so need to slow the rpm, as you suggested to someone else.
Hey, love it, what RPM do you use here ?
Around 12 rpm
Hello do you use the dremel 4000?🤔
Hi! No I don’t. I used to have a dremel stylo plus though
🙏 Which pen you are using please give Me link I want to buy and is it will work on acrylic sheet for making acrylic night lamp🙏
All the links are already in the description 🙌🏻
What is RPM and is it work on acrylic art like acrylic night lamp 🙌
i tried :'( but my drill keeps bouncing off the metal surface and it created so much jagged lines. Totally not smooth as yours.
Oh no! Hahaha may I know what RPM are you using?
@@leahchong i think it was 27 or 25rpm.. You make it look so easy! 🙌
Use a slower speed and see if that helps! Let me know how it goes ✨
@@leahchong 😭ok will try again! If u have any engraving workshop please let me know! I'd love to attend.
Ahh thank you! Are you from Singapore too?
It seems that due to lack of explanation that much exercise is required in skill to control / handle the cutting tool ((before)) expecting smooth lines of lettering.
This is so, even if calligrapgy skills by user is refined. Afterall, this is not a pen and is spinning at thousands rpm and it will want to jump off or skid off surface when attempt is made to engrave.
Many marketers of such equioment fail to explain this and in haste they demonstrate highly skilled engraving --in order to secure sales--.
gd luck
I’m not sure what to make out of this comment! Just to clarify, the engraving tools I’ve mentioned in this video, they’re all from other brands that I’ve used, and hope to share with others who are considering as well! I don’t make any commissions from sharing these 3 engraving tools 🙌🏻❤️
L.Hong. With due respect, I stress that anyone learning to use any type of similar equipment (which rotates at high speed) require basic & advanced skill of the hand to become familiar with the 'handpiece'. Best result is achieved --after-- good control / dexterity with it.
This should clear up any claimed misunderstanding of my initial note here.
tks
Right! Let me add a disclaimer to the description 👍🏻
