What are some of your struggles when it comes to engraving or carving straight lines? As always, I appreciate everyone’s support and video ideas 🤙🏻
Why not use a flexible ruler? Just a thought
Great idea! That line makes a lot of sense. i am loving your videos you are a great teacher.
Hey Juez, thank you very much! You just made my day 😃
Just starting, I am excited to learn, thank you for teaching.
Thanks for watching Debbie, let me know if you have any questions!
Great video! Thanks for the free download for practice as well.
Thank you Cory! No problem, I hope it helps you.
You're awesome! I love your videos & projects. Thank you! 😎☺
Thank you Summ! Thank you for watching my videos 😃
Another awesome video!
Thank you brother!
Excellent video. Thanks!
Thank you Patrick!
Impressive control!
Thank you very much!
Ya thank you for the good tips ! I carve on rocks and the dremel bits are all over the place, so I think that will help to carve in the direction your carving or engraving. I just wish that I had a template that I could tape down to the stone !
Nice! Yeah I haven’t carved/engraved a stone yet, maybe in the future for sure. You can probably download some kind of design online and use carbon paper to transfer on to the stone.
You make it look easy lol but I really appreciate your tips and willingness to share your craft! Thank you for sharing
Thank you Alan! Time and practice you’ll get there haha.
In my experience with this type of and carbide tip, I have found that a smaller (round) bur has worked better on tough surfaces.
This is possibly because round bur has leser tendency to catch the metal surface when cutting through.
This is regardless of the fact that carbide has less number of teeth and they are thicker in comparison with HSS burs. good luck.
@@alierem4266 Hello Ali, you definitely have more control with the carbide bur although speed plays a big role in determining how smooth your passes might be. So it’s combination of things, but all that comes with practice, trials and errors. I’m hoping to make a video on how to choose the right speed in the future.
Brilliant, good vid, 👍
Thank you Darryl!
Brilliant stuff ❤
Thanks Matt!
great video!
Thank you Kevin!
🤘🏼 well done my friend!
Thank you Cody! 🤙🏻
Great tips on engraving.
Thank you! Glad that I was able to help.
Hehehehe great tutorial as always buddy and liking the sniper term for holding your breath 😉
Haha thanks! You never know when you’ll need a sniper in the garage 🤣
Wow, is amazing how you handle the tool, the firmness of your hand.
Thanks Rick!
@@TriadoCustomEngraving Sniper hands
:)
Haha you know it! 🤣
Very helpful 👍
Thank you!
nice tutorial, brother ...
Thank you bro! 🤙🏻
Engraving seems so relaxing. Do you have ways to paint your engravings? Like a black metal piece with gold engravings?
Haven’t painted my engravings, although I was thinking about trying to experiment with some color.
Thank you ..
You’re welcome! Let me know if you need any help
Hi, just came across your channel yesterday and I’m diggin your content. Subbed up. Also, I can’t pretend I’ve seen everything you’ve posted and with that, I’ve got a question; have you considered using a tungsten carbide scribing tool for you first pass? I’m curious if it would work well enough to create the small groove needed in order to confidently move up to whatever rotary tip used to create the deeper, more defined line work. I ask because, in one of your vids, you mention the challenge involved with using the rotary tip for the initial pass as it sometimes wants to jump around. I imagine a scribe tool would mitigate some of that, but since I haven’t tried this yet, I cannot verify.
Thank you for subbing! Scribe is a good idea for non painted objects I’d say since it can be used to scratch soft metal. Not sure about cups, especially painted cups you’d have difficulty and probably waste your time. I think what I was referring to “jumping” is going backwards or against the rotation. It’s been a while since I made some of these videos haha so I don’t remember exactly what I said. A lot of it also depends on what tool you’re using and what bur you’re using as well. Cheap bur won’t cut as good as some of the tungsten carbide burs that I prefer using. Speed is also important, more speed less jumping.
using a flat flexible (yet firm) straight edge; you can scribe a line on curved and irregular surfaces, I use either a 1" thin metal and a 1.5" thick soft plastic straight edges (depending on circumstances) to get those nice lines on weird surfaces.
Nice!
Learning and improvising are key problem solving in use of this equipment.
At times, --as you have done--, tools may have to be custom made to achieve effective results.
good 💐
Thank you!
New subscriber here. Love your tutorials. How much do you charge people for doing the cups? Like hourly rate or just so much per cup. Look forward to more videos. Ty
Hey Danny, thank you very much for subscribing and watching my videos! As far as payment goes. It all depends on your demand. If your demand is high then you raise the price, if it’s opposite then you lower the price. I started out doing engraving for free just to have something to show. As of right now I’m only charging $15/hr, it’s not great and it’s not bad, it gives me back on what I spend on my equipment. Future goal is maybe $40/hr but that wouldn’t work for cup engraving, it would have to be a different market.
Hey bubba, as always your work in impeccable! Question, do you use any other brand of cups besides yeti? Are there any out there that are comparable? I wanna start out with something a little less expensive to practice on. Thanks in advance. 😊
Hey Lenie, thank you very much! It’s honestly a trend that never stops. All of my customers just order Yeti so it makes it look like all I engrave is Yeti…haha. In reality you can go with any cheap water bottle or cups that you find locally. I found Zak! products at local Target store to be very affordable.
@@TriadoCustomEngraving thank you so much for replying so fast! I’ll be looking for those in the very near future!
@@leniekrick4886 No problem, happy engraving! Tag me so I can share your work in my next video 🤙🏻
@@TriadoCustomEngraving oooh, scarey , you might not want that🤣
We all start somewhere haha
Awesome video, when do you start breathing again after you turn blue or finished with the line you're engraving? 😆
Hahaha that’s a good one! 🤣 Thanks bro!
Hey I have a dremel 4000 just curious what speed do I use on those type of cups
Hey Joseph, I do 25-30,000 rpm. But it’s all personal preference.
@@TriadoCustomEngraving thanks
A sniper never holds his breathe. Pull the trigger at the very bottom of your exhale. Just fyi if you ever need to actually snipe someone. 😂 Amazing talent brother.
Haha thanks man!
You’re tracking you engraved CW3 rank for a CW4?
Hey Thomas, you’re probably in the Army. Check out the Coast Guard CWO4 🤙🏻
What kind of rotary drill are you using? Brand/model? How many r.p.m.s?
Hey Richard, I’m using Foredom K1060 micromotor which I listed in the description. I’m using Fox Germany TC burr and my speed is set to 25,000 rpm which I mentioned here 4:56. 🤙🏻
@@TriadoCustomEngraving,
Thank you for the information! What is the Foredom's fastest speed?
I have found that the faster the speed, the better the line quality.
The current drill that I use spins at
300,000 r.p.m.s. It is air powered.
I would like to see if there's an electric powered motor than has at least 75,000+ r.p.m.s.
I have a Dremel that goes 30,000.
For larger jobs, I have a rotary tile cutter at the same speed as the Dremel.
@@MrSilvaworks Hey Richard, it only goes up to 50,000
@@TriadoCustomEngraving , not bad. What does it cost?
@@MrSilvaworks $500 - 600, if you look online there are many different sources who sell them.
Hello sir I'm interested in your craftsman ship can you please let me know if you still in grave thank you Bradley
Hello Bradley, thank you very much! My shop is currently closed and I’m not taking any orders.
Tip1: use ruler
Tip2: have a strady hand
Steady hands definitely help
Snipers don't hold there breath lol.
Haha
Why is a square a triangle if it’s a square? 😂
Haha I honestly don’t know what you’re talking about 🤣
