    any chance you know why when i trying to do a tumbler like the pink one in your video....(up and down not sideways) it doesnt come out right. example: i put in 5 inches length and 3 inches wide and it frames correct but when it actually lasers it does it small and not to the measurements. i have to end up putting the measurements in longer than what the cup is to actually get it to the size i need which is from bottom to top of the tumbler. Im stumped

      Each machine can be different depending on how you set up your focus. Plus, the colors may need different settings for each color I usually test around 85 power and speed 35 and adjust from there. It's also a good idea to run a test grid on a spare tumbler.
