Using the xTool Rotary Accessory kit - Etching tumblers & candle jars - M1 Laser & Blade machine

The whole reason I wanted a Laser machine was to be able to etch on candle jars and offer a unique product. Today we are going to open the Rotary Accessory kit and get it set up in the xTool M1 Laser & Blade machine.
I will show you how to etch on metal tumblers and glass jars using the various accessories in the kit.

Thank you so much for explaining why people in other videos paint glass surfaces. You’re the first person to explain why it’s done. I’m definitely getting this machine!

[@SoyandShea]

Thank you for watching 🧡

[@ElenaAnita]

Thank you for explaining how the Xtool M1 works in such a detailed way and for showing each step. I really appreciate your clear and simple way of speaking which made me understand everything despite being Italian

[@SoyandShea]

Thank you watching 🧡 hope it helped

[@williambuckley1185]

good video good teaching .

[@SoyandShea]

Thank you for watching 🧡

[@corkycobon1481]

I so could see you doing specialty candles and having the glass etched(Christmas, Halloween, Mother's Day, Graduation, ect.). Obviously they would be a limited run, but could be something to add for some of your seasonal offerings. I could see pumpkins being etched for pumpkin spice candles or candy canes for a Christmas candles or even snowflakes. The possibilities are almost endless. Wish you continued success with you laser etcher.

[@SoyandShea]

Yes these are all things I have had in mind. Plus so much more! I am really looking forward to Halloween and Christmas this year.

[@meve.d]

I am totally in awe at your versatility and ingeniosity. I am a little the same (soap, sewing, stained glass...) but I would have never thought using an etching/laser machine. WOW!! you rock!!! Bravo

[@SoyandShea]

Thank you 🧡 I've been fascinated by the laser machine since I first saw one about 4 years ago. So happy they now make them table top size. There are so many things you can do

[@surfmomma1949]

I’m doing research on lasers. You convinced me! Showing how to attach the riser and air assist were amazing. Thanks so much!

[@SoyandShea]

Thank you for watching 🧡

[@alisonbaker1963]

This is an amazing tool and your explanation is so easy to follow. The possibilities are endless and I especially love the idea of customising candle vessels. 😊

[@SoyandShea]

The m1 is a great beginner machine and I have so many ideas running through my head. I will keep sharing what I do with it.

[@hite1959]

[@ratchelmcmahon9175]

This has the potential to expand your product range ❤

[@SoyandShea]

There are so many ideas I have in mind and can't wait to share them. I will have some new items for Christmas this year. ❤

[@oldidea]

Hi, do you know keeping your screen on white will burn the monitor faster? And it hurt viewers eyes too. Enjoy your video topic. Thank you.

[@SoyandShea]

Yes, I'm aware of screen burn, which is why all my computers have screen savers and sleep screens. I also try to use dark mode when possible, but some programs don't have the function, so white screen is all I get.

[@ritalawns5029]

Brilliant video, very informing, where can I purchase the accessory kit for the rotary attachment, thank you.

[@SoyandShea]

Thank you for watching. I got mine from the xTool website.

[@basook6116]

thanks... did you have to do REFLECT on engraving glasses or metal tumblers???

[@SoyandShea]

No. You only have to reflect the image when cutting HTV vinyl.

[@basook6116]

@@SoyandShea thanks.
