XTOOL F1 Full Wrap Pattern Tumbler Engraving, Patterned Tapered Surfaces and Tapered Correction!

[@jimbruce4348]

Brilliant explanation as ever. Thanks for creating the maths tool too. I've received my tilt mechanism, what a game changer, The only negative was that as it came from the US, I got hit by customs processing costs which were about the same as the product itself.

Thank you so much! I wish that I could help more with some of the taxes different countries impose but sadly it is out of my control :( Really happy you're enjoying the tool though!

[@chriscol77]

What an effort. Perfect guide. Thank you so much

Great video and love your products. Do you have the STLs that you use available?

[@facelessfan]

This is great. Thank you. Great work. What are your laser settings to do this on 3D prints?

[@chrisr1241]

Amazing! Thank you… what type of printed martial is so good engraveable?

[@EmbraceMaking]

I've tested several brands of black PLA - eSun, Elegoo, and Bambu Lab Basic PLA and all of them mark well with these settings, colors other than black are very hit or miss

[@chrisr1241]

Great advice thank you

[@musicj]

I would like to buy just the leg extensions. I have the new XTool Tilt Mechanism. Do you have the leg extensions for sale?

[@EmbraceMaking]

embracemaking.com/pages/contact send me a message there and we can work something out. Thanks!

Why does your xtool creative space look different then the lastest version I'm running on windows? You seem to have much more features

[@EmbraceMaking]

Have you updated to creative space 2.0? It was released a few weeks ago

[@ryanweller6242]

Got a side question for you...... would you know the settings to do zippo lighters

[@EmbraceMaking]

What machine are you using and I assume the lighters are stainless steel?

[@ryanweller6242]

@@EmbraceMaking Xtool F1, im assuming it's stainless. I was thinking about using the metal business card setting or dog tag.

[@ryanweller6242]

​@@EmbraceMaking zippo calls it street chrome. Dull color.

[@EmbraceMaking]

I don't have any zippos on hand to try but if they are stainless - on the XTOOL site they have settings for the F1 using the IR laser at 80% power, 550mm/s (seems high?), 200 lines/cm for vector files, and 60% power (no speed setting?) and 450DPI, 150 dot duration with JARVIS for bitmap files.... and then interestingly for stainless dog tags they have different settings like 100% power , 50mm/s , 300 lines/cm for vector files... so I would probably lean towards the dog tag settings as the speed seems sufficiently slow to mark something like stainless. www.xtool.com/pages/material-settings

​@@EmbraceMaking thank you very much and again keep up the great content.

[@snuggles9622]

So I followed this tutorial and when I processed my design, it mirrored it. Any idea what I might have done wrong?

[@EmbraceMaking]

Are you using the F1?

First thing to check would be make sure your RA2 is on the right side of the machine, next check that you're using the chuck and not the rollers and make sure in creative space you're also selected the chuck and not the rollers, I'd start there.
