    Awesome video! Thank you so much 😊. One tip I picked up when engraving aluminum... move your white wheels off to the side, or you’ll get roller marks that won’t come out! (Sorry if this tip was already posted: I looked, but I didn’t see it)

    Very informative video. I’ve been seeing quite a few vids with the leather but it seems to mostly be chrome tan leather which traditionally can’t be “tooled”. Veg tan however can be after it’s ‘cased’ (dampened). So I was curious as to whether the Deboss tool would work any better on cased veg tanned leather rather than chrome tanned.

    Great tutorial but you go a little fast. I had to run it five times to see how you centered and welded and I still couldn’t get it. I ended up just clicking links until I figured it out. Also I learned that pre-filled lettering looks the best. Maybe you can explore that and mention it in a future video. While I didn’t get all the info from this video it did push me even attempt this project so for that thank you thank you thank you!!

    Hi Angie. Just curious how you got your engraving tip to work with the copper? Mine won't let me choose it at a all. Actually I cannot choose the copper using any of the four new tips. I contacted Cricut (took 3 hours waiting) and they said they are trying to fix it.

      Branding could work? Quite a few PCB manufacturers also do cheap CNC part milling to order. You could potentially mill on in steel, head it up and use to brand?
      Alternatively if you had a 3D printer you could make a custom patterned roller and jig to hold the Fitbit and align a roller. Then place Fitbit band in jig, roll your custom roller in ink and pattern the band.

      For embossing in the Maker, you want the deboss tool.
