You can engrave metal business cards with the XTool F1, and you won't believe how fast it is!
I've engraved business cards like this in the past, and they came in at about 8 minutes. These can be done in as little as a few seconds if you score, or a minute if you engrave. Talk about quick!

What metal carda are you using? Are the anodized? How thick is the card?

[@stephaniecavazos4075]

Have you tried it in a different card color? Like blue or green? Do you use the same settings?

[@christinasanchez577]

Hello. Can you please share the settings used? Did you use the 10w or 2w laser? Thank you!

[@85thandPine]

Hi Christina! I used 10w blue light engrave at 100 / 400 / 1

Is it possible to cut out anything with this material?

[@85thandPine]

I haven’t tried cutting but I’ve seen it done before. Not sure on which material though!

Hi! I just tried out the ones that xTool sent with my machine but I’ve also used ones from Amazon with a Glowforge: a.co/d/azcEts3

Great video. Can the XTool F1 do multiple cards in one engraving session?

[@85thandPine]

Thank you! The space is pretty small but you may be able to fit 2
