Awesome video, thanks for all the ideas! What settings did you used for the stainless steel engraving? For me it didn't worked very well so far.

[@JTMakesIt]

Thanks! For stainless I use very very slow speed and full power. If it still doesn't work, try painting the surface black with a marker or a spray paint. It will engrave much better.

How do many passes do I have to do on 3mm mdf and what setting that it doesn’t burn the edges

[@JTMakesIt]

Max power nd 300-600mm/min. As many passes as needed to get through. Mdf will always have black edges as it is not the best material because it contains a lot of glue. Some mdf boards are easy to cut, some are almost impossible.

[@SoniaP-b8m]

Me gusta tu video, está muy bien explicado, muchas gracias. Una preguntita, ¿ ese ajuste último q haces después de calibrar objetivo y cámara el del eje x y eje z para centrar el grabado queda definitivo? O cada vez q apagas y enciendes la máquina hay q comprobar que cuadre bien el grabado y volver hacerlo?????

When you turn on the machine you need to re-calibrate position. S9 does not have limit switches for auto calibration. Newer machines that I tested on my channel have this.

Black color is so that the laser beam does not reflect off the surface and has something to work on. You can blacken the sirface with more easily removable paint like children watercolors. You need black surface so the laser light can be absorbed. You can do stainless without blackening with the s9, but I haven't tested brass yet.

I was not paid or got anything for this video. This video is just me having fun with this laser, because I wanted to see what it can do, and I got a lot of requests about certain materials in the comments. I have tested a lot of cheper lasers. Cheaper lasers usually fail to engrave stainless steel and ceramics and other metallic parts. I tried mirror with weaker laser and it engraved it but the engraving was not as clean because it did not have enough beam energy to cleanly burn away the coating. But Sculpfun S9 is still considered a cheap laser. Its 300$, but it performs almost as good as some 500$+ machines

@@jon9947 I got it for free to review on my website. There was no obligation from the sponsor for me to make this video. If you listened the video, you would hear that I said that it is the only laser in this price range that can do ALL of these projects. This means that less capable machines can still do some of them. I have around 10+ laser engravers currently, ranging from 200$ to 800$. And none of the sub 400$ lasers I have is capable to engrave stainless steel half as good as the S9. This is why I said that it is the best in this price range. The reason that the video sounds a bit like a commercial is because I have posted my affiliate link for this machine as the affiliate commission helps me to make more videos for you at no extra cost to the buyers of the machine. Plus it enables me to obtain discount coupons that benefit the viewers. Each video takes about 50+ hours of my work, and I can't do this for free as it takes away most of my free time. I still need to work at my job 8 hours each day. KZbin is my hobby. If you expect that someone is going to spend 300$-500$ of their own money each month and then film and edit the video for 1 month in the weekends, just to earn 30$ from youtube ad revenue from that video, then you have weird expectations. But one thing is true and that is that all of my reviews are unbiased. I always say what I want. If I like the machine I say good things, but if I don't like something I will say it as well. On my website you can see objective performance tests of all the machines I have tested so you can compare their performance directly and buy the machine that suits your needs the most. This is why I do all of this, because manufacturer specs for these machines are all over the place and it is impossible to compare the machines using the product descriptions online.

You use Full Power way too often. To cut Paper? C'mon. Also, both Atomstack (S10/A10/X7) & xTool D1 have comparable, if not better, performance to the S9 for about the same price.

[@JTMakesIt]

Better to use more power than finding out that it was set up just too low and you waste the piece. I have the A10 and the XTool on test right now. They are approx twice as expensive as the S9. Wil release videos and tests soon.

I used too much power

[@3DJapan]

@@JTMakesIt That's OK just now I used to much power on 1mm fake leather and carved my name into my slate under the leather.

Can not engrave every stainless steel why you do not tell the true about it

[@JTMakesIt]

Of course it can. But you need to set slow speed and high power

[@ma-oq8wj]

@@JTMakesIt i set the power 1000 and speed 200 is it right? but can not engrave silver and gold stainless steel , i bought several stainless steel bracelets and tested

[@JTMakesIt]

@@ma-oq8wj 200mm/min or 200mm/s? Try 50mm/min. If it still does not work then the bracelets are not stainless steel. And try to darken the surface with a black marker before engraving.

The "sculpfuness 9"?? Why the robot voice? Sounds ridiculous.

[@JTMakesIt]

I can't afford to pay a voice actor.

Ugly quality ! Do not buy ! I own a Trotec and give access to this machine in my town, it is far far less expensive as this crappy crap

[@JTMakesIt]

Oh, come on,you can't compare professional 15k$ laser machine to this hobby laser :)

[@leorocket]

@@JTMakesIt yes but in my opignon you make people dream about things they don't have. Because people are used to see professional machines results in shops, and you provide a very large weak blue laser. So they buy your kind of machine and then are disappointed. So they come to me and cry because the lost 300 euros. And then we produce together on my Trotec. I am so sorry, but I don't see the point of your vids and tools

[@JTMakesIt]

@@leorocketon my channel I give realistic examples of what this machine can do. please don't use my channel to advertize your business.

[@ΜΟΛΩΝΛΑΒΕ-μ5μ]

Agreed. I have a Mactron 50W JPT and while it does things this cannot, it’s a professional machine. You can’t compare pro to hobby like they’re the same thing. Like comparing a Ducati to a mini bike on the track. Lol

Hi could you please share what settings will need to be change to engrave on metal sheet just 1.5 mm thick. Hope you answer shortly.

[@JTMakesIt]

For stainless steel, full power and very slow speed. For normal steel it is impossible to engrave it with diode lasers

[@roshanshah2709]

Which laser is successful then please suggest. Thanks for your kind reply.
