The space is very limited with this device. The work space is only 130mmx130mm. This would not be a good choice for engraving those items. If you plan on engraving those items you will need a machine that is tall. Extender legs are able to be bought with most machines, plus you will need a laser engraver rotary. The icube would not be idea. Anymore questions just let me know.
@@samsungw200 Nice, that's the 5 watt. it has a .06 spot size so it will engrave in nice detail. It won't be the fastest machine but I always choose quality over speed. Enjoy!
@@baronleathercraft I got an one but been using lightburn for for graphics it does great but having problems with engraving slate on pictures it still doesn't turn out as vibrant. Everyone else else's does. I don't know what I'm doing wrong still kinda need to the laser engraving.
@@talesfromthedarkside9583 hehe, I am making slate coasters right now. The trick is to adjust your image. I invert and I set mine to jarvis. I take my gamma down so the image is pretty dark also I set my enhance radius to about 15 and then play with the enhance amount and then preview your image. Remember the laser only knows black and white so you want there to be some contrast, but you might not need to adjust the contrast.
@@baronleathercraft ok sorry for all the questions I just have one more the dpi setting I have read that 0.08mm is the laser spot size and it gives me a round 317 dpi because of laser dot size is that the highest I would be able to go
@@talesfromthedarkside9583 I do not mind the questions. A higher DPI is useful for designs where fine detail matters, but on simpler patterns, you may not notice much of a difference beyond engraving time. 317, That actually is what I use. I keep it over 300 and I have been using 317 myself. Engraving at a very high DPI (above 500, for example) may not always result in noticeable improvements due to the material's inherent roughness. A laser can only engrave as finely as the material allows, so going too high could lead to unnecessary engraving time without better results. You can always test it and make 2 of the same coaster and crank up the dpi for one of them.
Does this happen when you push it by hand or just when you do it with the power of the motors? IS this something that just started happening or was it always like this?
I personally have not tried stainless steel but according to all the literature the 10 watt pro max is able to engrave stainless steel. It does state this on there website.
Hi, are you able to do larger glass objects like mugs/champagne, stainless yeti coffee mugs with the icube, thanks

Thank you for your reply and great info😊
@@AndrewJacobsmusic Glad I can help. :)
Thanks for the review it looks good
Thank you for the comment. I thought the laser worked very well.
@baronleathercraft I ordered one and their warehouse flooded...shame I got a good deal lol oh well keep on looking
@@samsungw200 That is lame, sorry to hear that. Lets us know what you end up getting. Thank you!
@baronleathercraft just ordered the sculpfun s9 it was only 215 quid I thought on it and decided for a bigger cutting area.

Did you use lightburn for engineering or system software they give you
I do all engraving and cutting with lightburn.

I have a atomstack a5 pro and it feels like it hitting pot wholes and it on my y axis

What about stainless steel?
