  • My method for engraving custom ink pens to sell at events. I use jigs for almost every job that I do. This jig makes a set of 10 pens a breeze.
    For templates that I have made, check out my Etsy shop. I build files for projects and tools for laser engravers.

    Quick question. I bought your jig sets for the D1 10pro and it has a bunch of the top piece that are different. How do I determine which to use? Your videos have helped me with a better basic understanding of this hobby.

    I have made some engravings on these pens, I found that they came out sticky around the engraving, needed some scrubbing with alcohol . Maybe I have my power set too high?

    • @TheClackShack
      @TheClackShack  Рік тому +1

      I did numerous power tests to get it dialed in. Bamboo in general will weep if you heat it up too much. Dish soap will clean if needed.

    Maybe I missed it on your etsy shop but is the pen jig listed? Do you find the pens themselves work well for writing? I don't normally have pens to sell or give because I don't want customers getting a pen that doesn't write. Great tutorial on lasering pens.

      It would depend on your settings. They are round, so too big will be on the side.

    Add the array dimensions to your jig. That should make it easier to line up your text.

    Great idea and jig. So, you don't use/need a rotary jig? Do you somehow get L Burn to compensate for the curve, or is it a nonissue?

      Wait. What? You mean all these years using the aftermarket 3D printed string-driven methods was unnecessary?? 🙂 (at least for a single line of text). Damn! I'm gonna try that tonight. I have an order for a batch of 10. Even if it's 2 lines I assume you can just rotate it.
