Appreciate the good overview of lasering the challenge coins. You mentioned in the video that the embossing took ~2-1/2 hours. You also described how you did an embossing then followed up with a 'light' engraving to brighten the result. Was the 2-1/2 hours cumulative time for both layers or only for the embossing? If only for the embossing, about how long did the 'lightning' layer take? Regards, Tom
Tom sorry for the late reply was traveling. XTool makes it very easy. You can take a vector image, doesn't have to be 3d they then make it 3d in the software. It's really point and click. Use the settings or experiment with some. And based on size of coin, it will take 1.45 hrs to 3 hours. The client cycle is fast. Just a few min
Why doesn’t anyone show a time lapse of the coins processing!?!?! I have done several coins now all failed. No one shows what a successful run in Timelapse looks like and it’s so frustrating
Curious, if anybody has tried rotating the coin one or more times before the clean out pass just to see if a different angle feathering proves the process
So hold on a second; the point system...Are you telling me that in order to use the software that they created for use with their laser you need points? And the points are obtained by purchasing the unit but if you are batch printing/engraving/cutting those will get used up pretty quick...Sounds like a variation of a subscription that glowforge get gigged about. Additionally, in order to get "points" you would have to purchase things from them in order to increase your point number which even for glowforge many would buy their own stuff to reduce their overhead so it almost defeats the purpose...
The embossing feature requires points. However, you could use image r. To do it too. Image R gives you a few embossing a day for free but if you need to do more it will cost you as well.
Je suis sincèrement désolée pour mon anglais pourri. Je préfère vous écrire dans ma langue officielle le français. Pourquoi il est important d'utiliser une F1 Ultra plutôt qu'une XTool D1 Pro? Merci...

Thanks for helping us get ready for when these arrive!
Incredibly superior "how to" on f1 ultra coin making! Thank you!
While waiting on my F1 Ultra to be delivered, I'm watching a lot of videos. I was wondering about depth maps and what part they play here.

What type of filtration system do you recommend to run the embossing indoors?
@@KXDesignsLLC I upgraded to the new ap2. techreviewslink.com/AP2USA

Do you have suggestions for engraving crystal paperweights on the F1 Ultra?
Well done Do you sell some of all projects
Can we do this with silver?
Can you do this with silver as well?
Where do you find your brass coins? The ones that are true brass? Thank you.

Can I made it on silver ?
What frequency did you use?
Can this be done with any photo?
can you do the embossing like that with the S1?
No
This is one of the reasons I grabbed the F1 Ultra.

Let me get a link
@@ebpman 😁 thank you sir
