    Hello Wendy, A tip that you can use on items that don't engrave dark enough, you can engrave first, dust with powder coat paint and then cure the paint with the laser. Just make sure you dont move the product in between

    Thanks heaps for this Wendy, I’ve shared it with my daughter and my husband. Henri had an X Tool but it’s a rather big one, he loves engraving with slate on it and has produced some lovely things, but he was looking for a small one, this might be it as he’s impressed with his X Tool. As a bonus when he brought it we were in a small town in Queensland, he ordered it one day and got it the next. We laughed saying they must have a shed here somewhere as we NEVER with anything get next day delivery. Thanks mate and have a great day. 💕

    XCS can generate a test grid. It is under Array. Also, XCS does not have settings for many things you can work with. Even across machines with the same lasers, materials will show up for one but not the other. So don't let the absence make you think something isn't supported. It just doesn't have settings in there.

    Great review Wendy. I loved that you tried it on silicone and resin, even tho the machine didn’t support those materials.. and you got it to work! Can you upload any image? Personal photographs or artwork? Your logo turned out great so, I know you can do that but, I was just curious how that worked. As long as you digitize the image, you can laser cut it?

    you can put any image into the programme, but svg or png file formats work better. Obviously and photo wont be in that format so it would treat it as a photo and you have options to use the different settings for it . It would engrave or score a photo . and you can cut around the outside edge.I hope that helps .. my explanation is not very good but its the best I can do first thing in the morning 😂😂😂😂

    Huh... You are braver than me. 😅 Not sure if I could have managed to make myself engrave the silicone molds, lol. 😆 Turned out great in the end but I think when using thin molds like that you should get some translucent mold making silicone and mix a little bit up to add to the back of those molds before engraving. It would let you engrave deeper without worrying and reinforce the mold a bit since engraving it thinned it out so much. 😉 As for the fumes when using the extension tray... Maybe you can find large sheets of acrylic that can protect you from the light. If you can, then you can basically build a box that can accommodate the furthest reaches of the tray and drop it around the whole machine. 🤔 You just need to add cutouts for the tubes and wires. 🤷🏻‍♀️ It won't be airtight but it should trap most of the smell and, most importantly, protect others from the light too which would be my actual main concern if using this mode at something like a craft fair anyway. 😅 Thanks for sharing another fantastic video review. 😁 ...And for experimenting with something I was very curious about, lol. 😂👍

    @@Toonpish I'm actually kinda curious if you could make something with regular hardware store clear silicone (and maybe a bit of baby powder or cornstarch). Like, if you could create a thick flat sheet of it in between two sheets of wax paper and let it set then build thick walls around it to create a freeform mold, could you then engrave deeply into the bottom of it and use it as a regular mold? I mean, I know there are methods of making a mold with household silicone but could you engrave on it? 🤔 Might be best to test something like that outside though, lol. 😅 Take care! ❤️
