Engraving Glass with the xtool S1 

@@Ysalomet you should be able to, it might be a little slower though. If you have issues please let me know

@everygooddaydesigns Thanks... just got mine, will do...

@@billwatcher9321 Get the Cermark then lol. Some people dont want to buy that. a bottle of paint is like a dollar compared to 20 bucks. If thats the route you want to go then do it

I havent tried the sharpie but it could work, I do know the paint works though lolol. Maybe I'll test the sharpie thing, it might be quicker than watching paint dry lol

Also, what laser did you go with?

Appreciate it, let me know if you have any questions

@@drdisko that's actually a really good idea lol. Didn't even think about that

@@everygooddaydesigns I have developed and taught several laser courses including rotary for 150W CO2 machines and just ordered an SI with a 40W, IR module and rotary for my partner. Really like the safety features on the S1 and am impressed with the S1 videos.

@@drdisko yeah, its been a really awesome machine so far. The software is pretty easy to learn as well. I recommend skipping the conveyor feeder unless you are doing thinner material and only plan to engrave. I also can't recommend their IR laser, the first laser I got almost immediatly gave warnings for over heating. They replaced that laser with a new one and it did the same thing. I began to troubleshoot random things like check the air assist and see if it was causing the issue and other things. I think its a software issue but I have not been able to confirm that yet. Sorry about that lengthy post, I like the S1 alot, just wish they put more thought into some of the add-ons. (Tumbler rotary is pretty good)

I have a Magic Eraser which might also work for this. I'll confirm once I've done it 😊

@@LindaHeartisan please do, that would be an interesting find

@@SeleneR4mirezz it gets easier just find some cheap stuff to engrave and cut initially. The software is decent one you figure it out

@@everygooddaydesigns TYSM 🫡

@@SeleneR4mirezz no problem

I havent tried that but I'm curious if it wpuld melt on the inside since the laser passes through glass and stops at the paint

@@everygooddaydesigns Are you happy with the S1? Been looking into getting into lasers but dang hard trying to find a RU-vidr that wasn’t given a machine for free or sponsored… I saw your other video with the IR laser having a problem, did XTool fit it for you?

@@TheExtremeElementz so I like the S1 alot and the software that comes with it is straight forward. I reccommend it if you are looking for something to do work with. (Get the 40W if you plane on cutting). I wish it had a little more space inside the machine for engraving though. As far as the IR laser, they sent me a new one, it does the same thing though. Idk what the issue is with it but I think its something to do with software. The laser almost always say its overheating after using it for just a few seconds. If that is the way its buikt then they should rethink the IR laser
