jamesmking Posted October 5 Author Report Share Posted October 5 Diamond drag engraving is surprisingly fun and easy. I decided to buy a spring loaded diamond drag engraver and do some experimentation on feeds, cutting depth, stepover etc. I ended up. 90 degree drag bit. tip flat estimated at 0.128mm, 0.1mm step over, fill crosshatch at 0 degree, 700mm/min feed speed. Far better results than using a V bit, much less sensitive to the material not being totally flat and far far faster. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audiostar Posted October 5 Report Share Posted October 5 Nice James. Now change the face from Times to Arial and it will look even better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
