    Great tutorial! New to laser field but am eager to learn. Thank you for sharing your expertise. I have a 34 1/4" x 41" x 1/2" piece of plywood to close off our fire place during summer months and I would like to burn some type of patch pattern design on it. I know the project size is limited on the pass thru of the F1 but I have not experimented with it yet. It seems logical that with the laser head set at the lowest z axis position shooting laser thru the opening with base plate removed the project area would increase, if that makes sense. Have you experimented with this at all?

    There are files on Xtools projects websites that have test grids you can run. Each metal is a bit different so if one color works for us it may not work for you. Running a test grid always helps!

    If I am understanding correctly you just want to have 2 copies of the photo in XCS? If so you can select your photo and click CMD and C on your keyboard then CMD V to paste a copy. I believe you can also right click on the image to duplicate it.

  • @VelfCreations

    @VelfCreations

    5 ай бұрын

    Hey 👋 We haven’t tried PVC and just a warning for anyone else who doesn’t know engraving PVC releases some really toxic fumes so you need to either engrave outside or have really good ventilation. With that being said we would use the IR laser, power set to 100% and a really high speed maybe 1500 to start and work our way down. Use 300 for lines per cm Hope that helps

    Hey, So sadly we are actually not huge fans of how photos are engraved on stainless, that's why we never made a video to cover it. The photo looks fine when you look at it at a very specific angle but it mostly looks like an X-ray. Also every photo will need different settings but if you want to give it a try this may be a starting point IR Light Bitmap Mode: Jarvis Dot Duration: 1500 Power: 100% DPI: 900

    Typicall IR would be for Metals, Plastics and blue light for wood, acrylic, leather, leather, paper, stone. Really it’s just trial and error. If it doesn’t work with one you switch to the other. But there is an “xTool F1 Official” Facebook group that helps a lot. A lot of users including us will post settings on their of projects that we have made. Hope that helps!
