Engraving glass mirror

[tracy.k.hankins]

Does any one have experience engraving glass mirrors thanks in advance

I have not yet done a mirror but I think you want to engrave the back. Otherwise you get a double image from the engrave and reflection.

This should help - but always test, because no 2 materials are ever identical!

Help with engraving Glass - Settings (new)

I’m going to move this topic to Beyond the Manual. @tapoutms3, you can try the settings below for Engraving on glass: Power 100% Speed 850 LPI 340 You cannot cut all the way through glass with a laser though. Make sure you use a film of liquid dish soap, masking tape or a damp paper towel secured over the glass to keep it from cracking when you are engraving it.
