I cannot fathom how long it took you to figure this out, but it was incredibly generous of you to share. Aside from that, your presentation skills and video production work are outstanding! Keep up the magnificent work.
I recently picked up this machine and I am new to the laser world. Used within its limits I find it a great little machine. The downside, now I want a Fiber Laser to do the things this has given me the inspiration to do! Thank you for this tutorial, now I have to get some of these Brass coins and start playing!
I agree with you on a two want a fiber laser. I have a CO2 for Xtool the P2. I have the F1. I have a way and a 14-watt diode laser. The only thing really missing is fiber laser. However, a MOPA fiber laser is pretty expensive lol. 60w is like $4,400 depending where you get it.. but it's my next one lol.
That was very neat to see done, and your explanation. I just purchased a D1, and have absolutely no clue what I'm doing. Pretty inspiring stuff! Thank you
Thank you for this. I tried the same brass coins and could barely see the design with xTool's recommended settings. The whole reason I bought the F1 was for IR/metal. I will try your technique to see if I can get some contrast.
Just got mine it's great, I use lightburn with my other lasers but with this one I used their software and it sucks, very slow software when using lightburn with the f1 there is no framing like creative space has
Dude that's awesome. I had no idea that you could erase the coin like you're talking about or that you could remove dark spots like you didn't at the end. I did want to say that if you got the slide extension for this you can do multiples at once. He could even make a jig that would hold each ones there in the exact same spot each time.
This is really amazing. I'm missing something fundamental, though. For the darkest areas you burn several times with the laser, but the last pass hits white areas like the forehead and makes it lighter instead of darker. I'm not quite understanding.
It all about dot duration and power. The longer the dot stays is one spot and the power is high the mark will be black. By increasing the speed and lowering the power I'm essentially removing the dark lines which is why it looks like it's turning white. It's also just what happens to the surface at those speeds and power. Some marks can be light and some can be dark. That's why it's important to run tests to see what configuration gives you what result.
This multiple step process is really awesome, definitely give more depth to the design !! How did you figured out which step to proceed and in what order ?? Thank you !!!!
You mention you can wipe the coin clean with a white circle, but if it is white only runs for a second or do we need to invert the white circle, so it is black and keep the standard settings?
Great demo of the equipment. Where did you pick up the technique? That was very cool. Will that work on Wood as well. Or is this unique to Metal and using the IR? Thanks a Mil
Really good video. I wonder if it would work similarly on the S1 with the IR laser option? Just ordered mine. Hasn't got here yet. I hope I eventually understand all the settings in the depth you do.
You should be able to achieve the same effect but the settings will be different as the S1 can't move at the same speeds since the whole laser moves since it's not a galvo laser. I don't know the settings off of the top of my head but you should be able to figure it out with some power and speed tests.
Spoofing a contour grading that light burn can do. I assume this because your can’t do much with the xtool as it is bound to the software, Like Cricuts are with design space?
hi thanks for your very interesting video, I ask you at the end of the video do you say that it is possible to process everything by correct levels? but process them all at the same time or one at a time like your video procedures?
Essentially if you place all of the different jobs that I ran in different layers you could run the whole job at the same time. I never set it up like that but there is not reason why you couldn't.
Magnificent video, I love the results I am seeing when I try this, Question for you. When I try to 'clean' a coin Ie put it back as if nothing was etched, I can get some fadeing, but not really a clean coin, any tricks that may help me make some of my tests useable again?
complimenti per l'ottimo lavoro e spiegazione, ho appena acquistato questo incisore, mi pare di capire che può anche incidere con diversi colori, tipo galvanica, giusto? grazie mille e complimenti
You mention being able to start over if you needed to by remarking the brass. Can you describe the settings you would use to do this? Basically, I've got a very one-of-a-kind brass item that I marked with the F1, and I'd like to clear it and start over with it.
When talking about wiping it clean I'm essentially doing a white pass over the whole thing. I believe it was a dot duration of 200 and power of 80. This will clean up the coin by removing any dark spots but might take a few passes. It will not put the brass back to it original shine however. To do that you could use a brass brush on a Dremel tool or something to that affect to polish it back to the original shine.
Very cool. I know this level of Engraving doesn't have any level of depth, but I've always wondered if it can leave marks that'll be picked up in injection molding. My thinking was that you can have a coin mold and use thin brass inserts to swap out with that coin you're making is. I'm pretty sure the copper wouldn't have anything deep enough for the plastic to pick up. Or at least not anything desirable. But I just can't help thinking about it.
This would be true of a fiber laser for sure. I have plans to test that soon on a 30W fiber laser I have on the way but again these with this machine are just for looks.
very good, I wanted to ask you if you could make a video of the Xtool F1, for engraving on steel to obtain the same or similar effect. I tried but with poor results.Grazie.
Thank you so much for the support! I have played a little bit with the image on stainless steel that you can see on my review of the machine around the 13 minute mark. th-cam.com/video/kqnkyweErJM/w-d-xo.html However it still needed to be dialed in but what I would suggest is running some power/speed test in Creative Space to see what gives you light or dark marks on stainless steel. Then for something like the coin I would first lay down a layer of white that encompassed the whole image and then a layer of black for the image over that. One the brash I was really trying to blend multiple colors but since stainless is different and shinny it might take a little bit different approach. Hope this helps and that again for the support!
that is a very nice looking 2.5 D relief, Thanks for this because this is the area I am interested in getting into. Coins, and is it worth the time and $ to start ...
I you really want to get into coins and make real 3D engravings in them I would suggest looking into fiber lasers. It may take a while but the effect and finished product looks amazing.
You should be able to. Just right click on the image in Lightburn and choose adjust image. Then play with the Contrast, Brightness, and Gamma settings to achieve essentially the same effect.
I know how to create 3d models, but I don't know how to draw in raster or vector programs. Can a laser machine accept a .stl file with the correct dimensions (e.g. 0.25 mm engraving depth)? Or do I need a vector or raster file?
You can't use an STL directly with xTool Creative Space. You would have to figure out a different method to render the stl so you can use it as an image. Also this type of machine will not be able to actually engrave depth into the surface. For that you would need a more powerful Fiber Laser .
Just purchased the F1 and tried to replicate your method, but was disappointed in my results. Could it be a difference in quality of the brass in the coins?
I'm not 100% sure. I would also be sure that you have set the height correctly and are using the correct laser. Everything should be with the IR laser.
@@BusterBeagle3D Thanks. I did double-check that I was using the IR for each layer, and that the height was set correctly. So maybe it's the coins themselves. I ordered some from your Amazon link and will re-try with those. Fingers crossed!
The laser wavelengths and power are the same so you should be able to. The speeds will be different since one is a galvo laser and one is not so the S1 will be slower.
Essentially you can use a full wipe of the white pass and it will eventually clean the coin off after enough passes. I don't remember the settings off the top of my head but it would be the same as the first or last pass in the video.
Just like with any metal...different speeds and different powers give you different results. That's why it's so important to run power/speed tests on new materials so you understand what power/speed does what.
i was wondering if you have an email I could talk to you at, I need to laser some stuff but cannot afford one so I thought I could ask if you could do it for me! Thanks
While I don't commission jobs at this time I would suggest joining some of the laser engraving Facebook groups where I have no doubt you can find someone who is willing to some jobs for you.
The new lions head they are advertising is with the F1 Ultra. That is their new Fiber laser that can make things like that coin. Not this F1 with a much less powerful IR laser.
Different machine, different use case. I can't put my CO2 machine in my luggage and take it to craft fairs. It's not cheap but still for what it does it's impressive.
You thumbnail is a little clickbait’ish, making seem like it is a deep engraving. Unfortunately it is a real challenge coin. The laser doesn’t have the power to deep engrave like a fiber laser.
You realize that is incredibly cheap for what it does & that if you start a business with it you can write it off, right? It is a tool purchase. Could pay for itself. With the smoke purifier, you can bring this thing anywhere. Money all day, on the spot, engraving anything for people.
@@bestyoutubernonegraternumber1 We use this and a fiber laser to make and engrave anything. That's laser-able. The F1 is great for small markings and paired with a Fiber you can make almost anything.
@@GarlandFarms Yes, most times. Mopa is a system of function that some fiber lasers can have. Most commonly JPT laser sources. I classify lasers into these main categories Gantry or Galvo then CO2, Fiber, UV. Do you own a laser or thinking about getting on?

My coins came in so looking to make some coins! Thanks for the insight!
No worries. Good luck!
Freaking cool! Thank you. Had no idea about this process!

This is amazing technique thx for sharing
Amazing technique! By tye way, does the software allows to write some sort of script? It would be great to implement your method.

Nice tutorial and easy to understand. Would I use those settings for any image 3d like that ?
Can this machine engrave on porcelain?
That was pretty cool...Good job!
Thank you!
Fantastic tutorial. Best I've seen
Thank you! Appreciate it!
Question, can you get a 3D effect on other materials, say fine grain woods, lexan. ..
Is there any finish you could put on it to make it "pop" Like rub and buff?
How durable is the engraving if carried in the pocket?
It seems pretty durable. It's not a deep mark into the surface but I can't wipe it off either.
How about a permanent print? I think this one can be erase
You could probably sand it off but it's not going to simply wipe off.
Great demo of the equipment. Where did you pick up the technique? That was very cool. Will that work on Wood as well. Or is this unique to Metal and using the IR? Thanks a Mil
Thank you. It is specific to metal on the machine and it’s a technique I came up with through some good ole fashioned trial and error.

Very cool, definitely going to try your method. The Mario dog tag is cool, are you going to do a tutorial on that as well ?
Does this do more of an etch vs cutting depth into the metal?
The IR laser is pretty low power so this is really just marking the surface on the metal.
@@BusterBeagle3D thank you.
Question: it is posible to 3d engrave metal with this or not enough power? If then what is the cheapest laser engraver for Desktop that can do that?
No it is not. You would need a fiber laser. The higher the wattage the better for 3D engraving.
@@BusterBeagle3D hi thank you then what is the cheapest model for amateur desktop setup that you recommend?
how coooool it is
Thanks!
Will it engrave on a watch dial eg put a logo on it.
It should. Again these are superficial marks but it should work.
Would this method pretty much work the same with other Lazer
It should. As long as you are using an IR laser the method would be the same.
@BusterBeagle3D I have the P2 laser would this technique work with a CO2 laser?
Just purchased the F1 and tried to replicate your method, but was disappointed in my results. Could it be a difference in quality of the brass in the coins?

@@BusterBeagle3D One more quick question: was your original image a raster or a vector image? I think that might make all the difference.
@@stoutcat The original image was a raster. I think it was a jpeg.
About how long would this take in a single go with all your layers ready to go in a single sequence?
I haven’t set this up all in one go yet but I believe you are looking at about 4-5 minutes per layer.
@@BusterBeagle3D that’s really quick for that level of detail. Thanks dude!
Does this work with a S1 2W1064?
The laser wavelengths and power are the same so you should be able to. The speeds will be different since one is a galvo laser and one is not so the S1 will be slower.
Is it same for silver and other materials? Nice videos btw. You really good in those
I haven't tested it on silver but my guess is it would be similar. Also thank you for the kind words. I really appreciate it.
@@BusterBeagle3D Your welcome :-) You videos help a lot. Can you do it may? I know a lot of people would be interested in it.
I just get black -.-@@BusterBeagle3D
Great video, thank you. The audio compression is cursed.
What settings do you use to "whipe the coin"?
Essentially you can use a full wipe of the white pass and it will eventually clean the coin off after enough passes. I don't remember the settings off the top of my head but it would be the same as the first or last pass in the video.
Would this work on leather?
Yes it can work on leather.
Do you have any settings that you can share for Hydbond leatherette to do an image like this and cut it out?@@BusterBeagle3D
That’s so cool dude, did you leave the dpi at 550 the whole time? I want to try to make that coin when I get my F1
Hello. Yes I left it at 550 the entire time. It's super detailed and looks even better in person.
@@BusterBeagle3D do you know if the Xtool mobile app is the same as working with a computer , I’ve looked on the website to find out but no luck
Have you tried engraving, iPad, MacBook Pro and iPhones?
How did you get a "blank" coin?
Got them here: amzn.to/3PKVQwo
@@BusterBeagle3D Thank you
I don't understand how it makes it white?
Just like with any metal...different speeds and different powers give you different results. That's why it's so important to run power/speed tests on new materials so you understand what power/speed does what.
