Hey just a suggestion, you can take it or leave it but it would def make my day haha...when you are showing different items, not necessarily this video but in others when you are showing off difference items it would be cool if in the corner of the screen you added a text that tells us Power/Speed/Passes for instance 100/40/1...idk maybe you could consider it...
@@illmerica322 Thanks for the tip! This could be done, but I forgot. But usually I always add setting information on the article on my website which I link in the video description. But this time I did not, because my settings were far from ideal. And were not perfect.
Anyway great video, for me I use a fiber laser and as an advice after your initial engraving, you could use higher frequencies (60hz) and low power (20%) and 500-1000ms speed to get the engraving more look more polished multiple time until you get your desired result
Hi, i like your videos, you are very thorough and informatinve. Do you remember that I asked a while ago about you doing the voice over instead of using a computer voice? You changed that, and you don't have to answer if you don't want, but I'm curious how you handle the voiceover in your recent videos? The voice is much better and I could not tell if it is a human or machine. (some pronounciations are very slightly off, but that might as well be accent) Do you voice them yourself now? A very good text-to-voice tool? Hired someone to do the voiceover?

I didn't exactly, because my settings were far from ideal. With good settings, the fiber laser would be the fastest, then CO2, then the diode laser and lastly the xTool F1. F1 is last because it needs to do 2 passes, but less cleanup is needed with it afterwards.
@@MedMicroBioMe if You want to engrave directly on a stainless steel, then you will need a infrared laser. The best would be a fiber laser. MOPA type will be even better. Check my other videos I have reviewed 20W ComMarker B4 and many MOPA fiber lasers
I’d imagine you could get similar results to the F1 with the S1 if you swapped out the laser head for the IR version ahead of a second pass. That said, swapping heads midway for every tumbler would be pretty tedious if you are planning more than a few jobs.
Hi.. Im starting a laser engraving small business and Im very short with money... do you know where to find good used or aftermarket machines for sale? And If you can advise me... which machine should I get ? I will focus on engrave photos on wood, wood crafts projects, key chains. Do you sell used machines that you don't use ? Thank you
You should check Ebay or facebook marketplace. Sculpfun machines are very good for the money if you are on the budget. I don't sell my used machines internationally.
Thank you for replying...I will check market place and eBay for sculpfun laser engravers... hopefully I can find one in a good price... thank you again... and Merry Christmas
I have one more question... If I found a sculpfun engraver machine 10 watt... can I replace the the 10 watt laser head to 60 watt laser head on the same machine in the future ?
If you buy s10 then I think 10W is maximum. If you get the 10W s30 pro, then you can upgrade to at least 33W module. Maybe the upcoming 40W will also be compatible. But if you know how to tinker with electronics, then you could modify the wiring it to fit even more powerful modules I think.
I will focus my search on 10w S30 pro to be able to do the upgrades... thank you for your help.. your help means a lot to me.. I feel more confident now... thank you.
thank you for your nice video, in your setting you needed to fill in the diameter. Since the tumbler is coned shape, which diameter do I use ? top or bottom or just an average ?
I use the average. This only affect the stretching of the image. The tumbler has a very mild cone shape and it doesn't affect the image stretch visibly.
If you put a weight ( I use a large socket ) in the cup, it will not slip on the rollers. Your putting the wrong end of the cup in the jaws. You ALWAYS put the large opening OVER the jaws to grip from the inside. But, you would have known this if you had read the directions and actually done any laser engraving at all instead of using other peoples videos and doing voice over to make it look like you know what your talking about.

I remember your question 😊 I'm glad that the narration is much better now. I hope to make it even better in the future when my channel grows!
F1 with a bigger bed will be a game changer

@@spaka1 you are correct
Thank you sir very useful video
Thanks!
Did you happen to document how long each machine took to engrave that graphic?

@@JTMakesIt Thanks for the reply. That's what I assumed from the video but was curious how much faster the fiber laser is.
Hi! Can you recommend a machine for engraving on jewelry (stainless steel and other popular cheaper alloys)?

I am looking for one to engrave the bottom on the tumbler. Can you anyone advise on the type of laser i can use? I want something compact.
