Boy howdy I learned when doing an engrave make sure it is the right direction to maximize engrave efficiency!!

ah man this looks good. Ive been waiting to get a machine that can do consistent depth engraves for stuff like this. This is making me antsy!

what did you use for the engraving? It’s okay, it’s 
so you can say. 
Can you believe I’ve had a PRU at the house for many weeks and have not done an engrave for slotting yet!
Glad someone is doing things I’ve not gotten to.

So…I’m guessing…you had to place this back IN the Glowforge and run it again? Or was this before you took it out to assemble? Otherwise, how did you align it correctly to run it again?

A variant of this is going to be a presentation box for one of my knife sharpeners very soon!
Thanks for the inspiration

I guessed that it needed two engrave runs so I ran the engrave twice and the cut once🙂

What settings did you use for the engrave? I have been experimenting, but no luck. Thank you!
